Diabetes Lancets Subscription | How It Works
No one likes pricking their fingers, especially multiple times a day! Many people with diabetes have given up on testing their blood sugar because they hate the fingerstick process so much. At Pip, our mission is to provide a lancet that makes this part of your diabetes management a little easier. We have heard from hundreds of customers that claim Pip Lancets helped them overcome the anxiety and fear of fingersticks.
One of our customers’ favorite perks about Pip is our personalized lancet subscription offer. You can customize your lancet subscription based on how often you test your blood sugar. Generally speaking, people test their blood sugar between 1-5 times a day. Pip offers a lancet subscription that fits how often you test:
- Choose a box of 100 lancets every 1, 2 or 3 months.
- As a guide, 100 lancets last about 3 months if you test once a day, about 7 weeks at twice a day, and about a month at three times a day.
- Testing more often? Add an extra box to any order.
Use the Pip Meter? You can subscribe to test strips the same way. Pip Test Strips are $21.99 per 100, and the Pip Test Strips & Lancets Refill puts strips and lancets in one box, from $29.99. Both save 10% when you subscribe, with delivery every 1, 2 or 3 months. Pip Test Strips work only with the Pip Meter.
*You can always skip, cancel or reschedule upcoming orders. Pip’s customer service team is readily available to help you make any of these adjustments to your lancet subscription Monday through Friday 8am to 5pm Central Standard Time. Contact the customer service team through our instant chat or email us at customerservice@hellopip.com. Do you need a prescription for diabetic lancets?This is a question customers frequently ask at Pip. The simple answer is no, you do not need a prescription in order to purchase diabetic lancets or have a lancet subscription. However, when working with insurance we recommend speaking with your primary care provider. Some insurance companies require a prescription in order to cover specific brands of lancets and other supplies. With Pip, there is no prescription needed to buy diabetic lancets. A box of 100 Pip Lancets is $13.99, and you save 10% when you subscribe. If you are looking to get insurance coverage, we recommend filing a claim with your insurance provider to see if they will reimburse you for all or part of it. How much does it cost?Lancet subscriptions can vary in price. Some websites might require you to pay a monthly fee or a membership fee. Pip Lancets on the other hand only charges you for your shipment - no membership fees or monthly fees. Each box of 100 lancets is $13.99, and shipping is free on orders over $25.
There is no contract. Skip, pause or cancel anytime.
How does the lancet subscription work?
Choose your lancet size (Mighty Fine, So Fine or Fine) and how often you want a box: every 1, 2 or 3 months. You save 10% on every subscription order.
Reminders before each refill shipment. You can pause, skip or cancel orders at any time.
Many Pip subscribers will order one-time purchases in between shipments either to have an extra supply of lancets on hand, pen needles, or to grab an extra carry case! Others add these items to upcoming shipments without subscribing. We also have customers who don't want to commit to a subscription at first, but after they've tried Pip they come back and subscribe later on.Diabetes is hard. Whether you decide to sign up for the lancet subscription or not, getting your diabetes supplies delivered right to your doorstep makes diabetes management a little bit easier. You never have to worry about running out of lancets again.
Whichever option you prefer - subscription or non-subscription - we think once you try Pip Lancets you’ll never go back to traditional lancets! :) Contact us with any questions you might have. We are always happy to help! Our email is customerservice@hellopip.com.
