The GLP-1 market has matured into classic subscription economics: acquisition offers up front, real economics after. None of this is a scam — but comparing programs by their intro price is exactly the mistake the intro price is designed to produce. Here are the current deal archetypes, each with its month-4 reality.
| Deal type | Example | Intro cost | Month-4 reality |
|---|---|---|---|
| First-month teaser | Telos 12-mo plan | $49 first month | $49/mo continues on 12-mo commitment — teaser IS the plan rate |
| Commitment tiers | Telos 6-mo / 3-mo / monthly | — | $99 / $129 / $199 — rate set by term length |
| Percent-off code | BiltRx code Bilt35 | 35% off | Verify whether code applies once or recurring at checkout |
| First-month discount | Eden oral | $149 first month | $249/mo ongoing |
| Launch pricing | Oral Wegovy / orforglipron | From $149 | Dose escalation can raise the number — price the maintenance dose |
| Flat low price, no teaser | GobyMeds | $99 sema / $133 tirz | $99 / $133 — what you see is month 4 |
How to Read Any Offer in 30 Seconds
- Find the recurring rate first. The intro price tells you the marketing budget; the recurring rate tells you the product. Budget on the recurring number.
- Check what the commitment costs to break. Long-term rates are genuinely good deals if you'd continue anyway. Ask about cancellation terms before taking a 12-month rate for a medication you haven't tolerated yet.
- Price your future dose, not your starting dose. Anywhere pricing varies by dose, month-6 you is on a different rung than month-1 you. Flat-rate programs exist precisely to kill this problem.
- Codes: confirm recurrence at checkout. A 35% code applied monthly is a different product than a 35% code applied once. The checkout page tells you; screenshots help.

Every intro offer answers one question: "what will you pay us in month four?" Get that number in writing, compare programs on it alone, and let the teaser be a pleasant month-one surprise instead of a month-four ambush.
