Short answer: TMates scores higher on our rubric, 7.8/10 against 3.9/10. Full reasoning, pricing and the cases where the other one wins are below.

TMates beats SnagRx overall, scoring 7.8/10 vs 3.9/10. Published pricing is not a like-for-like monthly comparison: SnagRx is published $69/mo; total not verified; TMates is from $158/mo. Choose SnagRx for people comparing the lowest published compounded-semaglutide medication floor who will verify the consultation fee and complete total before paying a brand-new storefront with no independent review record. Choose TMates for users who want commitment-discount pricing on compounded glp-1s ($158-$249/mo, medication included) or a $99/mo clinical path to brand wegovy or zepbound filled at their own pharmacy.

SnagRx

#53 of 54
3.9/10

SnagRx is a cash-pay compounded GLP-1 storefront operated by Modern Metabolic Medicine, Inc., the same company behind Embody and RodeoMeds. It advertises compounded semaglutide at $69/mo against a $299 regular price and compounded tirzepatide at $119 against $399, but its terms refer to non-refundable medical consult fees, so those are medication floors rather than verified all-in totals. Shipping is free at a stated 1-2 days. Prescriptions are filled through named partner pharmacies including RedRock Pharmacy. The site launched in January 2026 and its Trustpilot profile, though claimed, still carries no reviews.

TMates

#11 of 54
7.8/10

Telemedicine platform offering two distinct archetypes: compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide with medication included (commitment pricing $158-$249/mo), and a clinical-service-only path to brand-name Wegovy/Zepbound at $99/mo where the prescription is sent to the patient's pharmacy. Phentermine also available. 2026 expansion added brand-name FDA-approved options.

Pros & Cons Compared

SnagRx

Pros

  • +The lowest advertised compounded-semaglutide medication floor on this site at $69/mo, if the promotional rate holds; the consultation fee and all-in total remain unresolved
  • +Names its partner pharmacy publicly with a link (RedRock Pharmacy), which most competitors do not do
  • +Free 1-2 day shipping with a stated one-day turnaround from intake to a written prescription
  • +The site markets a locked medication rate with no monthly membership and publishes a separate refund policy; its terms still leave a possible medical consult fee unresolved
  • +States service in all 50 states plus Washington D.C.

Cons

  • No independent review record at all. The Trustpilot profile is claimed and shows zero reviews, so the '125k+ Happy Customers' homepage claim cannot be verified anywhere
  • The $69 price sits under a countdown timer that is a standing feature of the page rather than a dated deadline, next to a 'locked-in for life' claim. The regular price is $299
  • 'Cancel Anytime' appears three times on the homepage, but the terms say cancellation deadlines 'will be disclosed at checkout or in your account'. A deadline you only see after committing is not cancel-anytime
  • 'No Hidden Fees' is contradicted by the terms, which refer to medical consult fees that are not refundable
  • All sales are final once medication is dispensed; refunds are limited to medication not yet shipped where a provider finds you ineligible
  • No named clinicians, no medical director, no published lab or video-visit detail
  • Shares its operating entity with Embody and RodeoMeds. Neither SnagRx nor Embody discloses the relationship on its own site, so a shopper comparing them would not know they are one company
  • Cash-pay only, no insurance billing and no prior-authorisation help

TMates

Pros

  • +Clinical-service-only path to brand Wegovy and Zepbound at $99/mo, prescription goes to patient's pharmacy (you fill separately using insurance or cash)
  • +Steep multi-month commitment discounts on compounded sema, $158/mo on 12-month plan ($1,900 upfront) vs $249/mo month-to-month
  • +Same price at all dose levels for compounded, no cost escalation as you titrate up
  • +Phentermine available at $149/mo for patients who benefit from a different appetite-suppressant approach

Cons

  • The $99/mo Wegovy/Zepbound tier is the clinical service only. Medication is billed separately at your pharmacy (can be $1,000+/mo cash without insurance). Choose this tier when your insurance covers the drug itself.
  • The best compounded rates require prepayment: $1,050 upfront for 6 months, $1,900 for 12. Start at $249 month-to-month if you want to test fit first.
  • The intake is a 90-second quiz. Fast, but lighter screening than competitors with full medical intakes. Better suited to patients who already know GLP-1 basics.
  • TMates prescribes brand-name but does not dispense it, and is not affiliated with Novo Nordisk (Wegovy) or Eli Lilly (Zepbound). Your own pharmacy fills the Rx.

Our Verdict

TMates edges out SnagRx with a score of 7.8/10 vs 3.9/10. Published pricing is not a like-for-like monthly comparison: SnagRx is published $69/mo; total not verified; TMates is from $158/mo. TMates accepts insurance, which can significantly reduce your out-of-pocket costs. TMates offers both brand-name and compounded medications, giving you more flexibility.
