TMates prices four compounds in an open catalog with no intake in the way, and says plainly that it is not a compounding facility. It also lists two branded weight-loss drugs at a small fraction of their list price, without a word about what that money actually buys.

Cancellation, refunds and shipping
What TMates states on its own site about leaving, getting money back, and what delivery costs. Read on September 2026.
Not statedCancellation: Read in a browser — the host serves a client-rendered shell to a fetch. The 39-section Terms publish no subscription cancellation term: the only route stated is account closure, "You may deactivate your Account and end your registration at any time, for any reason, by sending an" email. No notice period, billing cut-off or self-service cancellation is published, and the refund section (Section 11) governs money without ever describing how to stop a subscription.
StatedRefund: Three cases, stated as a ladder, with the percentage on each: "Refunds for purchases made before the medical team reviews a patient's medical history: 100% refund." "Refunds for purchases made after the medical team reviews a patient's medical history and the patient does not qualify for any of our medication-assisted weight loss plans: 100% refund." "Refunds for purchases made after the medical team reviews a patient's medical history and the patient does qualify for medication, and a prescription is written and transmitted to a pharmacy: No refund. Also, if a refund request is not approved, any payment plans will remain in place." A chargeback is answered with collections: "TMates reserves the right to seek other remedies, including collections agencies, to collect the outstanding monies owed... TMates may also charge interest on the outstanding amount, up to the maximum amount allowed by law."
Not statedShipping: On the rendered page, the Terms contain no shipping cost, window, carrier or free-shipping claim, and none appears in the rendered homepage. The only mention of a pharmacy in the money sections is the point at which a refund stops being available.
Membership fees

Not statedTMates publishes nothing about a membership on any page we checked.
Who prescribes
Whether TMates identifies the clinician or medical practice behind the prescription, or describes them only as a group. Read on September 2026.
Not namedTMates does not name a prescriber on any page we checked — its clinicians are described as a group rather than identified.
TMates is not a paid partner; this link may earn a commission if that changes. Full disclosure.
The catalog lists two branded weight-loss injectables at the same low monthly figure, formatted exactly like the compounded rows beside them.
Those drugs list for more than ten times that. TMates never says whether its figure is an access fee, a first month, or something else entirely.
Do not budget from it. The trademark attributions at the foot of the page confirm these are the branded products, and no branded product reaches you at that number.
Everything else is priced in the open
Semaglutide, tirzepatide, NAD+ and sermorelin each carry a from-price per month on the shop page, next to products outside this comparison.
There is no eligibility gate in front of those prices, which is rarer than it should be. You can see the numbers before you answer a single question.
Every one of them is a floor, not a rate at a stated dose. What you actually pay follows what a provider prescribes.
TMates is clear about what it is not
It states that it is not a 503A or 503B compounding facility. That is specific and checkable, not the usual vague disclaimer.
It says it may offer compounded medications from registered pharmacies, and that compounded medications are not evaluated by the FDA for safety, quality or efficacy.
Its operating company is named in the footer of every page.
Two different answers on where it operates
The homepage promises round-the-clock access to doctors in all fifty states.
The shipping answer in its own FAQ says it ships to most states.
Those are not the same claim, and neither is a list. Confirm your own state before you order rather than trusting the homepage line.

How we verified this
The shop catalog was read row by row in September 2026.
The two branded rows print a figure a small fraction of those drugs' published list prices, with no explanation on the page.
The trademark attributions at the foot of the shop page identify both as the branded products.
Every catalog figure is published as a from-price, so each is a floor rather than a rate at a stated dose.
The homepage claims doctors in all fifty states; the shipping FAQ says most states. Neither is a list.
The brand and the operating company were checked against the federal warning-letter database in September 2026.
A provider to compare TMates against
Trellis Vitality
Trellis Vitality frames its program around body-composition tracking rather than scale weight, pairing NAD+, glutathione and tesamorelin with at-home biomarker panels and a 90-day re-test, and names its dispensing pharmacy, VialsRX in Houston, by address.
