What Collective and Wellorithm plans cost

Collective

Very low month-to-month medication pricing that remains flat across doses, funded through a separately disclosed annual membership.

  • Compounded Semaglutide$59$59 billed monthly for medication at any dose, plus required membership free for 21 days then $199/year. Twelve medication payments plus one membership: $907 before any technology transaction fee, which the terms do not price. Not a verified complete bill.
  • Compounded Tirzepatide$69$69 billed monthly for medication at any dose, plus required membership free for 21 days then $199/year. Twelve medication payments plus one membership: $1,027 before any technology transaction fee, which the terms do not price. Not a verified complete bill.
How Collective bills

$59/mo is compounded semaglutide medication only. Required membership is free for 21 days, then $199/year. Twelve medication payments plus one membership total $907 for semaglutide or $1,027 for tirzepatide at $69/mo, before any electronic-prescription technology fee the terms allow, which they do not price. These are medication-and-membership subtotals, not the complete bill.

What to watch for with Collective and Wellorithm

Collective

  • The $59 and $69 medication headlines exclude a required $199 annual membership after a 21-day trial

Collective's strengths, cautions and terms

Strengths

  • Medication is billed month to month rather than through a required multi-month medication prepayment
  • Two-day express cold shipping, clinician review, unlimited doctor messaging, and nutrition and lifestyle support are included
  • The public site links certificate 50716874 to LegitScript's verification checker
  • The legal entity and MDIntegrations clinician-network relationship are disclosed in the legal pages

More to watch for

  • No dispensing pharmacy, individual clinician or medical director is publicly named
  • Unavailable in Alabama, California, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Mississippi and Washington, according to its FAQ checked October 17, 2026; ask about Washington, D.C. coverage
  • The annual membership auto-renews and is generally non-refundable, with no partial-period refunds
  • Its long-term GLP-1 service record is not yet confirmed; customer reviews alone do not establish treatment quality
  • Cash-pay compounded medications only; no brand-name Wegovy or Zepbound and no insurance or prior-authorization service
Medicines listed

  • Tirzepatide (compounded injection)
Insurance
Cash-pay. Collective says medication and membership are HSA/FSA eligible; eligibility and reimbursement depend on the account and expense.

Clinical review and unlimited doctor messaging are included in the required $199/year membership. The terms also allow a technology transaction fee for an electronic prescription without publishing its amount.
Shipping
Included; two-day express cold shipping is advertised
Prescribers
Independent US-licensed providers; the privacy policy identifies MDIntegrations and its independent medical-group network as an example clinical partner
Lab work
Not required
States
44 states: AK, AR, AZ, CO, CT, DE, FL, GA, HI, IA, ID, IL, IN, KS, KY, MD, ME, MI, MN, MO, MT, NC, ND, NE, NH, NJ, NM, NV, NY, OH, OK, OR, PA, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, UT, VA, VT, WI, WV, WY. Collective doesn't serve Alabama, California, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Mississippi or Washington, and you should ask about Washington, D.C. We built this list from the FAQ's six-state exclusion list, checked October 17, 2026; a clinician decides your eligibility at intake.
Cancellation
Cancel online before the 21-day trial ends to avoid the $199 annual charge. A paid membership continues through its current annual period and is generally non-refundable with no partial-period refund. Products and services are otherwise non-refundable except at CollectiveOS's discretion. If no prescription is issued, the medication order is cancelled and the medication is not charged.

Wellorithm

  • The October 30 terms name Wellorithm Inc. and give a Miami legal notice address. That disclosure does not independently verify incorporation, ownership, founders or a medical director. The October 8, 2026 review did not verify which named clinician oversees this GLP-1 program or their program-specific role
  • October 22 pricing records $247 semaglutide or $349 tirzepatide renewals. Current published terms specify calendar-month injection billing; confirm your selected order's current charge, taxes and next payment date
Wellorithm's strengths, cautions and terms

Strengths

  • One price at every dose: the pricing page states the medication price is the same across the semaglutide range of 0.25 to 2.4 mg and the tirzepatide range of 2.5 to 15 mg (checked October 16, 2026)
  • Conditional weight-loss refund guarantee: if expressly included in the accepted offer, eligible new customers losing less than 10% of baseline weight after 16 weeks of adherence may request up to four months of fees actually paid; verification and other conditions apply
  • The pricing page shows your first payment and your renewal side by side: $147 then $247 per renewal for semaglutide, $249 then $349 for tirzepatide, with the consultation and shipping included
  • Short online eligibility quiz, virtual consultation, 24/7 support availability claimed
  • 23,000+ reviews and 4.9-star rating reported (volume is unusually high for this market segment, verify on independent third-party sources before relying on it)
  • Free, discreet shipping is included in the advertised injection plan

More to watch for

  • Request compounded GLP-1 renewal cancellation at least 48 hours before the disclosed charge through your account or by email, and keep the effective-date confirmation. Later legal rights and stoppable orders still apply; cancellation alone does not create a current-term or prorated refund
  • The guarantee must be expressly included in your accepted offer. Its conditions include new-customer eligibility, treatment adherence and no other weight-loss medication in the preceding year as disclosed in the offer. Weight verification is required; approved refunds cover up to four months of fees actually paid and are processed within 30 days after verification
  • The historical Ozempic and Zepbound pages showed $1,119 in the hero and $1,199 in a pricing card, alongside an internally inconsistent plan footnote. Neither that footnote nor the conflicting prices establishes a valid dose or total bill. Obtain the exact medication, dose, term and upfront charge before paying

Cancellation
The October 30 terms, checked November 4, 2026, allow renewal cancellation through your account or contact@wellorithm.com, with confirmation of the effective date. Request compounded GLP-1 cancellation at least 48 hours before the disclosed renewal charge; later legal rights and any charge or unfulfilled order that can still be stopped remain protected. If no prescription follows the initial evaluation, the medication amount is not charged or is refunded; only a separately itemized and disclosed before payment, earned for a completed evaluation and lawfully chargeable consultation fee may be retained. You may request order cancellation before dispensing or irreversible fulfillment. Cancellation does not itself refund a properly charged current term or create a prorated refund; eligibility, guarantee, billing-error and legal remedies remain. Specific accepted order terms control commercial conflicts. The weight-loss guarantee applies only if expressly included in your accepted offer and all eligibility conditions are met
