Mama-Match
CoreAge Rx
Rank #31 · Grade C
What we like
- Published prices for both molecules, with the same advertised amount at each dose
- The offer includes medication, consultation and shipping, without an advertised membership fee
- The legal footer identifies the platform and the entities responsible for clinical care
The caveats
- The main site and a separate offer page show different prices
- The FAQ and policy differ on automatic rebilling and denial refunds
- State restrictions; orders become final when sent to pharmacy, with a 30-day refund cutoff
Mama-Match
Pepti
Rank #32 · Grade C
What we like
- $99/mo semaglutide is the lowest price in this roster, stated flatly on a dedicated cost page and repeated in the FAQ
- Flat at every titration dose for both molecules — the cost doesn't climb as you go up
- All-in: medication, physician review, shipping, refill management and unlimited messaging with the prescribing physician
The caveats
- Ships to 36 states, not 50 — the narrowest coverage of the providers added here
- Cash-pay only; Pepti states plainly that it does not bill insurance
- The compounding pharmacies are described as FDA-registered 503A or 503B but never named
