Will a card save you money in New York?
Estimate your yearly savings
Many states add 10–20% or more on recreational purchases. Check your state's rate.
$270a year back in your pocket
Your evaluation pays for itself in about 6 months.
An estimate, not a promise. Tax rules vary by state and city, and some states tax medical sales too.
Ways to keep the cost down
- Ask about reduced state fees
Many states cut their fee for veterans or people on assistance programs. Check the New York Medical Cannabis Program.
- Renew on time
Renewals are cheaper than starting over, and a lapsed card can mean a new application.
- Never pay before you're approved
With us, you aren't charged unless the doctor approves you.
Questions
Is there a separate state fee in New York?
No — New York doesn't charge a registry fee.
Do I pay if I'm not approved?
No. We take payment only after the doctor approves you.
Does insurance cover it?
No. Because cannabis is illegal under federal law, insurance doesn't cover the evaluation or the products.
