Kratom can range in price when shopping online and in-store. There are also different types of kratom you can buy, which cost different amounts also. We break down both the online and offline best kratom prices you can expect in this post. Use this as a guideline when shopping for kratom anywhere you go.
It’s important to never compromise on quality when buying kratom, which is why we made this helpful guide. We recommend using Google to find online kratom vendors with a good reputation.
Price of Kratom: Kratom Powder
Best Online Kratom Prices
The most popular to buy kratom is to buy powder kratom from an online vendor. This also represents the most affordable, cost-effective way to buy kratom.
Kratom online from popular, well-known vendors should come at the average price of about $0.35 per gram.
If you choose to buy kratom in higher quantities such as 225 gram or 455 gram packages, you can get a lower price down to about $0.25 per gram. But this type of price is usually only available if you are buying a very high quantity.
This pricing guide should also apply roughly for almost all types of kratom, such as Bali Kratom or Red Vein kratom.
We reviewed all the different strains of kratom here, check it out.
We recommend using these average prices as a guideline when shopping online. By aiming for a lower price, you will risk running into quality issues. Once you get lower than about $0.20 per gram, the kratom you are purchasing will be weak or potentially modified to cheaper somehow.
Kratom Store Prices
Buying kratom at a brick-and-mortar store such as a headshop or a convenience store will almost always be significantly more expensive than online. This is because stores have learned they can charge more for the convenience of buying kratom in-person.
In a store selling kratom, you can expect to pay around $1.00 per gram. This is a high markup compared to online vendors. Furthermore, the kratom you buy in a store can often be a very random, off-brand kratom. This is a quality concern, and often times the kratom in-store is low quality.
If you do choose to buy kratom powder in a store, try to find a reputable store that sells well-known brands of kratom so that you can feel more confident about your purchase. We suggest never buying kratom powder from a convenience store or gas station. This is a pricing and safety concern, too!
Avoid shopping in stores if you’re searching for the best kratom prices.
Best Kratom Prices: Other Forms of Kratom
Buying other forms of kratom online is also very easy. You will find things like kratom extract, ‘enhanced’ kratom, and more on many online vendors. These will come at steep price increase compared to powder kratom.
The reason that modified forms of kratom cost more is because work must be done on the kratom to turn it into that form. Secondly, there is more packaging involved in things like kratom capsules or kratom shots that are sold in individual packages. This makes it more expensive to buy.
Still, the most cost-effective way to buy kratom is to purchase it in powder-form from an online vendor that is well rated.
You can also buy other forms of kratom at stores also. Stores will sell kratom capsules, enhanced kratom, and kratom ‘shots’. We don’t recommend buying these as they are usually very overpriced and made with unapproved, unregulated processes that are a major safety concern. You never really know how they make those products.
If you prefer to consume kratom in a form other than the powder, you can always make kratom tea at home. See our guide on kratom tea here.
Conclusion
Practice caution when buying kratom online or offline, and use our general pricing guidelines above to make your decisions. Avoid spending money on expensive kratom extracts or other similar goods, because these are overpriced and also a safety hazard.
You should be paying about $0.35 per gram of kratom powder online. If you attempt to go significantly lower on price than this, you will end up buying low quality kratom that is questionably sourced. Kratom is already a relatively cheap product to buy, so spend the right amount of money and receive a quality product in return.
