How We Chose
- •We compare what a provider publishes about itself — pricing, eligibility criteria, lab requirements, pharmacy arrangements, and cancellation terms. What a company will not put in writing is itself a signal.
- •We weight clinical screening heavily. Programs that require labs and publish exclusion criteria score better than programs that prescribe from a questionnaire alone.
- •We penalise pricing that only holds during an introductory period, and we look at what a member pays at a maintenance dose in month six.
- •We separate brand-name access from compounded access, because they are different products with different regulatory status, not two prices for the same thing.
- •We do not accept payment for placement or ranking. We do earn affiliate commissions on some outbound links, which does not affect these picks.
1. Best for brand-name medication
Amazon One Medical
The rare telehealth option that prescribes FDA-approved GLP-1s only and says so plainly, with published eligibility criteria and real lab requirements before anyone writes a prescription.
Why it made the list
Explicitly refuses to prescribe compounded medication, requires creatinine, eGFR, and fasting glucose before treating, publishes its age and BMI criteria so you can check yourself in advance, and fills through Amazon Pharmacy with same-day delivery in many cities.
What to watch out for
Does not accept insurance for On-Demand Care, caps post-visit messaging at 14 days, excludes adults 65 and over and people with diabetes from this pathway, and offers no coaching at all.
- Membership
- Care from $39 per visit (no membership required)
- Medication
- From $149 with coupon if eligible; priced separately
- Medications offered
- Wegovy, Zepbound, Foundayo
2. Best for using your insurance
Zealthy
One of the few programs that assigns an insurance coordinator to actually work your prior authorization rather than defaulting straight to cash-pay.
Why it made the list
Coordinators pursue coverage for brand-name Ozempic, Wegovy, Zepbound, and Mounjaro, with copays reported as low as $25. If coverage fails, the compounded cash-pay option is available without switching companies. Refund terms and cancellation consequences are published.
What to watch out for
The pricing structure is genuinely confusing — bundles, membership, and standalone medication pricing all coexist, and bundle prices step up sharply after month one. Cancelling immediately ends prior authorizations and refills. Public review scores are the weakest in this list — Trustpilot sits at 3.2, with billing complaints about unexpected charges and cancellation difficulty as the dominant theme.
- Membership
- $39 first month, then monthly membership
- Medication
- Compounded semaglutide from $151/mo; tirzepatide from $216/mo
- Medications offered
- Compounded Semaglutide, Compounded Tirzepatide, Ozempic
3. Best bundled pricing
Fridays
One monthly number covering the visit, the medication, and a genuinely deep support stack, with no separate membership, sign-up, or lab fee.
Why it made the list
Compounded semaglutide from $117 and tirzepatide from $198 on annual plans, unlimited provider visits rather than a capped number, and dietitian sessions, mental health support, and group sessions included rather than upsold. Brand-name options exist in the same program.
What to watch out for
Headline prices are annual-prepay rates; month-to-month costs meaningfully more. No insurance for visits, and HSA/FSA acceptance is not documented on the pricing page.
- Membership
- From $117/month (semaglutide, annual plan)
- Medication
- Included in plan price for compounded options; brand-name at cash prices
- Medications offered
- Compounded Semaglutide, Compounded Tirzepatide, Ozempic
4. Best value
Clover Meds
The rare budget program that also does real screening — flat pricing across all doses from $96 a month, with published medical exclusions.
Why it made the list
Every dose costs the same, so titration never raises your bill. Publishes a specific exclusion list covering thyroid cancer history, pancreatitis, eating disorders and insulin use. Anti-nausea medication and injection supplies included, price-match guarantee excludes teaser rates, and its 4.8 Trustpilot score across nearly 4,900 reviews is the strongest among providers we added this cycle.
What to watch out for
The lowest rate needs a 12-month prepaid commitment, there is no brand-name pathway or insurance option, and the dispensing pharmacy is not named.
- Membership
- From $96/month (semaglutide, 12-month plan)
- Medication
- Included in plan price; all doses cost the same
- Medications offered
- Compounded Semaglutide, Compounded Tirzepatide, NAD+
5. Best for midlife and menopause
Alloy
The only program we review built specifically for pre-, peri- and post-menopausal women — and it routes brand-name prescriptions to the manufacturers' own pharmacies.
Why it made the list
Wegovy goes to NovoCare and Zepbound to LillyDirect, named openly, which removes the compounding-pharmacy question entirely. You keep one board-certified menopause-specialized physician with unlimited messaging, following ACOG and Menopause Society guidelines.
What to watch out for
Two charges to budget: the $99/month care fee plus medication from $70 ($199 for Wegovy, $299 for Zepbound). Cash-pay, and cancellation and refund terms are not published.
- Membership
- $99/month Alloy Weight Care fee
- Medication
- Billed separately, from $70/month
- Medications offered
- Wegovy, Zepbound, Compounded Semaglutide
6. Best obesity-medicine focus
Mochi Health
A weight-focused practice rather than a general telehealth platform with a weight-loss line bolted on.
Why it made the list
Strong user ratings, obesity-medicine orientation, and insurance-friendly visit billing, with access to both brand-name and compounded pathways.
What to watch out for
Pricing sits in the mid-to-upper range of the market, and total cost depends on what your pharmacy charges for the medication itself.
- Membership
- $169-$349/month
- Medication
- Included for compounded; insurance billing for brand-name
- Medications offered
- Semaglutide, Tirzepatide, Compounded GLP-1s
7. Best without a subscription
Klarity Health
Pay per visit, use your own insurance, and fill at your own pharmacy — no recurring membership charge at all.
Why it made the list
Accepts more than 400 insurance plans plus HSA and FSA cards, self-pay visits start around $51, appointments are generally available within 24 hours, and you choose your own provider from a large directory.
What to watch out for
Medication cost is entirely on your pharmacy and could be anywhere in a $25 to $1,500 range. No coaching, no delivery, and some states require an in-person visit before prescribing.
- Membership
- None — pay per visit, self-pay from $51
- Medication
- $25-$1,500/mo for GLP-1s depending on insurance and pharmacy
- Medications offered
- Wegovy, Ozempic, Zepbound
8. Best all-round platform
Ro
The largest of the established players, with brand-name access, insurance navigation, and a mature support experience.
Why it made the list
Broad medication access including brand-name products, established insurance navigation support, and a well-developed member experience across web and app.
What to watch out for
Membership pricing spans a wide range depending on medication path, and the lowest advertised rates generally apply to compounded options rather than brand-name ones.
- Membership
- $145-$395/month
- Medication
- Included for compounded; brand-name varies by insurance
- Medications offered
- Semaglutide, Tirzepatide, Compounded GLP-1s
9. Best cost transparency
Ivím Health
Membership and medication are priced as two separate line items, so you can see exactly what you are paying for care and what you are paying for the drug.
Why it made the list
A $74.99 membership covering unlimited provider consultations and 24/7 care team access, compounded semaglutide from $149, HSA and FSA explicitly accepted, and a free provider consultation before you commit to anything.
What to watch out for
The real starting total is roughly $224 a month once both charges are counted, and lab requirements, cancellation terms, and refund policy are not published.
- Membership
- $74.99/month membership
- Medication
- Compounded semaglutide from $149/month, billed separately
- Medications offered
- Compounded Semaglutide, Wegovy, Ozempic
Head-to-Head Comparisons
Providers from this list, compared two at a time on price, screening, and terms.
How to choose between them
Work through these in order. The first question that returns a clear answer usually decides it.
- •Does your insurance cover a GLP-1 for your indication? If yes, pick a provider that will actually bill it or work your prior authorization. That will beat any cash-pay price.
- •Do you want an FDA-approved product specifically? If yes, your list shortens to providers with a real brand-name pathway.
- •How much clinical screening do you want? Programs requiring labs and publishing exclusion criteria are doing more work on your behalf than programs that prescribe from a form.
- •Do you want support, or just a prescription? Bundled programs with coaching cost more and are worth it only if you'll use them.
- •What will you pay in month six? Compare maintenance-dose pricing after promotions end, not the signup price.
Check the regulatory record before you enroll
The FDA issued 30 warning letters to GLP-1 telehealth companies in March 2026 and another 25 in June, almost all concerning false or misleading marketing claims about compounded products. That makes a provider's regulatory record a usable selection criterion for the first time.
Warning letters are published openly on FDA.gov and are searchable by company name. A letter is not proof of harm — most concern website claims rather than the medication — but an unresolved one is worth knowing about.
- •Search the FDA warning letter database for the provider's legal corporate name, not just its brand.
- •Check whether a close-out letter has been published; no close-out means the issue is unresolved on the public record.
- •We note verified warning letters directly in a provider's review — our MEDVi review documents one from February 2026.
- •Read our guide on FDA warning letters for how to interpret what you find.
What the FDA has been objecting to
Implying a compounded product is FDA-approved, presenting it as equivalent to Wegovy or Zepbound, or citing brand-name trial results as if they applied to a compounded formulation. If a provider's site does any of these, that is the exact conduct being enforced against.
Red flags worth walking away from
- •A program that will not tell you which pharmacy prepares your medication.
- •Pricing that only appears after you have completed a full medical intake.
- •No published cancellation or refund terms for a recurring charge.
- •Compounded GLP-1s marketed with additives and efficacy claims that have no trial evidence behind them.
- •Any provider that will prescribe without asking about your family history of thyroid cancer.
- •Pressure to prepay for a year before you have taken a single dose and know how you tolerate it.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which online GLP-1 provider is cheapest?
On advertised monthly price, bundled compounded programs on annual prepay terms are lowest. But if your insurance covers a brand-name GLP-1, using that benefit is almost always cheaper than any cash-pay program. Check coverage first.
Are online GLP-1 providers legitimate?
The established ones are real medical practices with licensed prescribers. Quality varies enormously in how much screening they do, whether they require labs, and how transparent they are about pharmacy sourcing. Those differences are what our rankings weigh.
Can I get brand-name Wegovy or Zepbound online?
Yes, from providers with a brand-name pathway such as Amazon One Medical, Ro, Klarity Health, and Zealthy. Cost depends on your insurance coverage or on manufacturer self-pay pricing.
Do any of these accept insurance?
Some do. Klarity Health accepts more than 400 plans, Zealthy assigns insurance coordinators to pursue coverage, and several others bill visits to insurance. Fully bundled compounded programs are generally cash-pay only.
What happens if I want to switch providers?
You can, but check what cancellation does to your refills first — several programs discontinue prior authorizations and refills immediately on cancellation. Line up your next source before you cancel the current one.
