Is Calibrate's advertised price the full program cost?

$199/mo membership/program fee only; medication and labs not included. Confirm insurance coverage, medication copays and lab costs. Check the medication, membership, billing period and any additional charges together before purchasing.

Does Calibrate's membership include compounded medication or branded medication costs?

Calibrate's checked program uses branded GLP-1 medications, not compounded medications. The $199/mo membership/program fee does not include medications or labs. Medication is billed separately; insurance coverage, copays and deductibles determine your out-of-pocket charge. If coverage is unavailable, confirm eligibility and any cash-pay medication cost directly. The calculator compares $2,388 in annual program fees alone—not a complete medication-inclusive Calibrate quote—with Luma's medication-inclusive plan. As for Luma, our pricing includes the weight loss plan with no membership fee and all the supplies needed to start your journey. Products and results are not equivalent.

Does Luma charge a separate membership fee?

No. Luma's published plans include prescribed medication, provider oversight, necessary supplies and shipping. Prices do not change by dose. Treatment requires a licensed-provider evaluation and approval.

How does Luma's new-patient discount work?

It is designed to help patients new to GLP-1 medication get started and applies to the first plan period. A three-month compounded semaglutide plan starts at $99/mo ($297 for three months) and renews at $119/mo ($357 for three months). A three-month compounded tirzepatide plan starts at $149/mo ($447 for three months) and renews at $179/mo ($537 for three months). There are no membership fees, the price stays the same at every dose, and you can switch plans or cancel anytime before your next billing date. Pay upfront or use Affirm, Klarna or Afterpay to split payments, subject to eligibility and approval.

Can I split Luma's multi-month payment?

Luma offers Affirm, Klarna and Afterpay for eligible purchases, subject to approval and the provider's terms. Luma charges the multi-month purchase upfront; the payment provider sets a separate repayment schedule. Financing does not change the plan commitment, and canceling a future renewal does not cancel installments owed on an already-financed purchase.

How do I cancel a Luma renewal?

Cancel upcoming orders before your next billing date through your patient portal at https://portal.joinluma.com/login or by contacting support@joinluma.com. This does not establish a refund for an already billed or fulfilled order.

What is not included in Calibrate's $199/mo fee?

Calibrate's $199/mo program fee does not include medications or labs. Medication is billed separately, usually through insurance, so copays, deductibles or an eligible cash-pay price are additional. As for Luma, our pricing includes the weight loss plan with no membership fee and all the supplies needed to start your journey.

The 12-month math

A monthly headline is not the same as a year of bills. This example assumes a new patient chooses a three-month injection plan and renews that same commitment three times, with today's prices unchanged.

Illustrative Luma year, not an annual plan or guaranteed future price. Each quarter is paid upfront, or use Affirm, Klarna or Afterpay to split payments, subject to eligibility and approval.
Injection plan	First 3 months	Each renewal quarter	Illustrative first year
Compounded semaglutide	$297	$357 × 3	$1,368
Compounded tirzepatide	$447	$537 × 3	$2,058

The quick-answer banner compares Luma's three-month semaglutide plan with Calibrate's stated billing arrangement. Medication prepayment terms may differ. Dose changes, different plans, promotions and future prices can change the result. No guaranteed annual savings are claimed.

Who might choose Calibrate or Luma?

Consider Calibrate for

Patients whose insurance covers branded medication and who want a coaching-led program. Confirm that the specific medication, services and commitment match what you want.

Consider Luma for

Compounded-program pricing without a separate membership charge, dose-independent prices, and monthly or multi-month options. A licensed clinician reviews your online intake and determines whether prescribing is appropriate.

Calibrate's monthly fee does not include medications or labs. As for Luma, our pricing includes the weight loss plan with no membership fee and all the supplies needed to start your journey.

On the comparison above, Luma's illustrative first year is $1,020 lower than Calibrate's modeled year: $1,368 versus $2,388.

Eligible current GLP users can save another $120 every six months by choosing Luma's six-month compounded semaglutide plan at $99/mo instead of two current-user three-month plans.

The choice is not just about cost. Branded and compounded products are not interchangeable, and a lower price does not establish better clinical care or results.

Get started with Luma

Splitting payments and canceling renewals

Luma offers Affirm, Klarna and Afterpay to help split your bill into smaller payments. These options can spread the cost of an eligible prepaid plan without changing its total Luma price or commitment length.

Affirm: how it works — Pay over time with eligible payment plans. Affirm offers Pay in 4 and longer-term options; available terms depend on your purchase and eligibility.
Klarna: how it works — Pay in 4 splits an eligible purchase into four payments, generally every two weeks, so you can spread the cost over time.
Afterpay: how it works — Pay in 4 splits an eligible purchase into four installments over six weeks, with the first payment upfront.

Choose from the options available for your purchase and review the payment schedule before agreeing. Eligibility and approval apply; payment amounts and available plans vary. Some Pay in 4 options are interest-free, while other plans may carry interest; late fees may apply depending on the provider and plan. The provider shows the applicable terms before you commit.

Luma still charges the full multi-month plan price upfront; an approved payment provider lets you repay that purchase on its separate schedule. Splitting payments does not turn a three-month Luma plan into a month-to-month subscription.

Canceling an upcoming Luma renewal does not cancel installments owed on a purchase already financed. Any approved refund is handled under Luma’s policy and the payment provider’s terms.

Canceling Luma

Cancel upcoming orders anytime before your next billing date through your patient portal or by emailing support@joinluma.com. This does not establish a refund for an already billed or fulfilled order.

Canceling Calibrate

Confirm insurance coverage, medication copays and lab costs. Use Calibrate's official account or support instructions and ask whether medication and membership must be canceled separately. We have not verified a provider-specific cancellation deadline or completed that process.

If you are considering switching, complete a new clinical evaluation and coordinate treatment timing with your clinician.
