Apollo Peptide Sciences Review (2026): The Bureau Scorecard
Who Apollo is
Apollo Peptide Sciences is a US research-peptide vendor with a curated, documentation-first catalog concentrated on GLP-1 compounds: semaglutide, tirzepatide, and retatrutide (listed as GLP-3R). Rather than stocking every compound in the niche, Apollo runs a tighter list and attaches real testing documentation to it. That positioning is exactly what it advertises, and in our time ordering from and tracking the vendor, the experience has been consistent with it.
Documentation and COAs
This is where Apollo earns its score. The site publishes third-party HPLC/MS testing references, and batch-level Certificates of Analysis are accessible to customers rather than gated behind support tickets. On a category where a meaningful share of vials sold by unverified vendors are underdosed or degraded, accessible batch documentation is the single most important thing a vendor can offer. Apollo is the only vendor on our scorecard to take a perfect 25/25 on COA transparency.
What works
- Third-party HPLC/MS testing referenced on the public site, with batch-level COAs accessible to customers
- The strongest GLP-1 catalog we track: semaglutide, tirzepatide, and retatrutide all stocked
- Prompt domestic shipping with tracked updates on our orders
- Support answered documentation questions inside the same business day
What doesn’t
- Per-vial pricing at the top of the category
- Curated catalog — fewer niche compounds than broad-catalog vendors
- Newer entrant, so the multi-year reputation track is shorter than legacy vendors
Ordering and shipping
Domestic shipping on our orders was prompt, with tracking updates that matched reality. Support replied to documentation questions inside the same business day — the fastest response cadence of the six vendors we track. Checkout is standard card processing.
Pricing
The honest trade-off. Apollo's per-vial pricing sits at the top of the category — typically noticeably above Pantheon or Amino Club for equivalent compounds. If you are running an extended protocol on a tight budget, the difference compounds. Our take: for GLP-1 compounds, where underdosing is common and dose accuracy matters most, the documentation premium is worth paying. For cheap, well-understood compounds like BPC-157, a mid-tier vendor is a defensible choice.

Visit Apollo Peptide Sciences ›What we actually order from Apollo
The four listings we buy most often here. Apollo codes the GLP compounds, so semaglutide is listed as GLP-1 S, tirzepatide as GLP-2 T and retatrutide as GLP-3 R.
Semaglutide 5mg · $79.99 Tirzepatide 20mg · $125.99 Retatrutide 30mg · $210.99 Bacteriostatic water 10ml · $9.99The sections below were read from Apollo Peptide Sciences's own website on 2026-09-05. They quote the vendor's published policies and prices and do not describe orders the Bureau placed.
Catalogue breadth
Apollo runs a short list rather than a broad one. On the checked date its store API returned 40 listings, and most of those are size variants and 10-vial boxes of three GLP compounds sold under coded names: GLP-1 S (semaglutide) in 5mg, 10mg and 15mg vials, GLP-2 T (tirzepatide) in 15mg, 20mg, 30mg and 60mg, and GLP-3 R (retatrutide) in 10mg, 15mg, 30mg and 60mg. The image files on those product pages are named semaglutide_5mg, tirzepatide_20mg and retatrutide_30mg, which is how we confirmed the mapping.
Outside the GLP range the catalogue is about 15 compounds: BPC-157 10mg, TB-500 10mg, a CJC-1295/Ipamorelin blend (5mg + 5mg per the product gallery), GHK-Cu in 50mg and 80mg, epithalon 50mg, KLOW 75mg, SS-31 10mg, IGF-1 LR3, NAD+ 500mg, 5-Amino-1MQ, FOX04-DRI 10mg, SNAP-8, a GLP-1 C + GLP-1 S combination and bacteriostatic water in 10ml. There is no standalone ipamorelin, sermorelin, tesamorelin, PT-141, MOTS-c, selank or semax listing. If your protocol leans on the growth hormone secretagogues or the nootropic peptides, Apollo is not the vendor for it.
Third-party testing and COA policy
Apollo's own wording, from its FAQ: single-molecule products "typically meet or exceed a purity standard of 98% or higher as determined by HPLC analysis", often 99% or higher, and "every batch of our research chemicals and peptides undergoes third-party testing". The About page adds that the vendor provides "Certificate of Analysis (COA) and Endotoxin Reports for every product" and that all products are tested by an independent third-party laboratory before being listed, with the lab reports "readily accessible on our website".
In practice the report sits in the product gallery. On the BPC-157 10mg page the second gallery image is a Janoshik test report (task number 152811, sample received 11 May 2026, batch BL0426B) showing 10.44mg of BPC-157 per vial and 99.34% purity, with a verification key for janoshik.com/verify. The epithalon listing carries an image named "Test Report #76719" in the same slot. We checked the BPC-157 report ourselves; for the other listings we only confirmed that a second gallery image exists. Reports are per batch, so a new lot means a new image, and there is no separate searchable COA library.
Shipping
Straight from the shipping page: a flat rate of $9.99 for most US shipments, free shipping on orders over $200 (US only), and expedited UPS at 1 to 4 days priced at checkout by zone. Orders are prepared within 24 hours of cleared payment and packed Monday to Saturday with a 2pm Eastern cutoff. The terms page gives a company address in Oxnard, California. The public pages do not describe international shipping; the free-shipping offer is stated as applying only to orders shipped within the USA.
Payment methods
Apollo's shipping, FAQ and terms pages do not list accepted payment methods, so we cannot quote them here. The methods are shown at the checkout step once you have registered. Registration is required, and the terms limit access to "qualified professionals, research institutions, laboratories, and organizations", with a research-use-only clause that prohibits any suggestion of human use.
Discounts and loyalty
There is no points programme. Two discounts are stated on the site. First, the email signup pop-up offers a coupon for free shipping and 10% off your next order. Second, the bulk-offers page sells 10-vial boxes of the GLP compounds at a lower per-vial price: a box of ten GLP-1 S 5mg is $639.99, or $64.00 per vial against $79.99 for a single; a box of ten GLP-2 T 20mg is $959.99, or $96.00 per vial against $125.99; a box of ten GLP-3 R 30mg is $1,687.99, or $168.80 per vial against $210.99. Those work out to roughly 20% to 24% off the single-vial price. Apollo also runs an affiliate programme, which is the programme the Bureau is part of.
Returns policy
Returns are accepted within 30 days of the order for products that are unused, in the same condition as received and in the original packaging, with proof of purchase. The stated eligible reasons are an incorrect product, or missing or damaged items. Opened, altered or specially handled items are not accepted for return. The process is to email support with the reason and photos within 30 days of receiving the order; Apollo then decides whether a refund applies and sends return instructions.
Benchmark prices (checked 2026-09-05)
Three of the listings we track most closely. Apollo prices its GLP vials at the larger end of the size range, so the per-mg figure is better than the headline price suggests.
| Compound | Listed as | Vial | Price | Per mg |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| BPC-157 | BPC157 10mg | 10mg | $59.99 | $6.00 |
| Tirzepatide | GLP-2 T 20mg | 20mg | $125.99 | $6.30 |
| Retatrutide | GLP-3 R 30mg | 30mg | $210.99 | $7.03 |

Is Apollo Peptide Sciences legit?
Based on our ordering experience and everything observable publicly: yes. Orders arrived as described, documentation matched labels, and the public testing references check out against the batches we received. The main caveat is track record length — Apollo is newer than legacy vendors, so it has fewer years of reputation behind it. Nothing we have seen suggests anything other than a documentation-first operation, and it holds our top score of 4.3/5.
Who should buy here
Researchers prioritizing GLP-1 compounds (semaglutide, tirzepatide, retatrutide) where dose accuracy is critical; anyone who wants batch-level COAs without asking; buyers who value same-day support. Budget-first buyers running simple recovery protocols may prefer Pantheon — see the full comparison on the scorecard.
