Is Amino Amigos legit?
Amino Amigos scores 5.62 out of 10 (Fair, tied #65 of 100) as of November 1, 2026 and does not meet our testing gate: all 14 products we score carry a certificate, 6 confirmed with the issuing lab (a lab we grade B+). Its strongest area is pricing (8.4/10) and its weakest is transparency (3.0/10); its operating history on record covers over three years.
On lab evidence, the heaviest-weighted factor, Amino Amigos has no third-party testing we could independently verify, with COA work on record from Janoshik Analytical, MZ Biolabs, Analiza Białek. The testing gate applies because that testing could not be independently verified (Third-party testing not established); its limit for Amino Amigos is 7.50, and this score is already below it. Its lowest price per milligram in our data is on GHK-Cu (see the table below).
How this score was calculated
Every point below follows the published tables in our methodology, with the policy wording we scored and a link to where we read it. Evidence last checked October 22, 2026. Lab credibility is worked product by product from the certificates on file.
Lab credibility4.5/10
Each carried product (lab supplies excluded) is scored from the certificate on file for it, on the published lab rubric: 3 for a published certificate, then points for the laboratory, the verification key, the tests on the certificate and its purity, held to 0 to 10. A certificate that is self-issued, names no laboratory, or comes from a laboratory whose independence is not established scores a flat 2.0; a product with no certificate, a certificate the laboratory’s own record fails, or a posted copy that differs materially from the laboratory’s copy scores 0. Calculated on , the day this page was built; the date each certificate was tested is shown on its row.

Pricing8.4/10
We compared Amino Amigos’s current single-vial prices on 14 products, each matched to the same product and milligrams per vial, with the median price of the other vendors. Its typical price (the median ratio across those products) is 18% below the market median (ratio 0.82), which the published scale maps to 8.4/10. checked
Operating history4.6/10
Counted from March 4, 2023, the earliest dated evidence of this business operating: 3.6 years as of October 22, 2026, which the published table maps to 4.6/10.
Start is the registration of the store domain aminoamigos.com on 2023-03-04; Wayback has no capture between registration and the first store capture (2023-05-20), so it was never shown parked or for sale. The site names no operating company ('Amino Amigos operates this website').

Product titled 'RETA GLP/GIP/GRA RT'; the page text never names retatrutide
Re-checked 2 November 2026 (re-audit #26): the RETA page's main product photo prints RETATRUTIDE, and the certificate library names the compounds, but the TIRZ GLP/GIP-TZ and SEMA GLP1 SG product pages still name neither tirzepatide nor semaglutide in their title, description, options or vial photos ("GLP-1/GIP TIRZ", "GLP-1 SEMA"); the compound appears there only in the address and certificate file names, so the deduction stands.

Market medians updated after AminoWave Labs was added pricing 8.4 to 8.3.
- Audit · 5.63to5.62
Pricing recomputed on 26 October 2026: listings added for a newly reviewed vendor (StudzPeptides) moved the market median for the same products: pricing 8.5 to 8.4.
- Audit · 5.80to5.63
Laboratory rule change on 22 October 2026: tier C is now decided from the check results alone (L1 and L2 pass, L3 fails, and neither L4 nor L5 passes). Analiza Białek meets that test, so its three certificates for Amino Amigos no longer earn the laboratory points (rule A2). Lab 4.8 to 4.5.
- Audit · 5.79to5.80
Operating history re-checked on 22 October 2026 under the published rule (earliest dated evidence of the business, including a never-parked store domain and the named operating company, looked up for every vendor): operating history 4.4 to 4.6.
- Audit · 5.81to5.79
Re-scored on 22 October 2026 under the published rulebook, which now gives one rule for each judgement call and applies it to every vendor: transparency 3.5 to 3.0.
- Audit · Verified, no change
Re-scored on 22 October 2026 under version 2 of our published rules. No score change. The testing gate is now computed from the certificates instead of set by hand: 6 of 14 products have a certificate from a directory laboratory with the key confirmed at the laboratory, fewer than the half required, so the testing cap applies; the cap sits above the weighted score, so it does not lower it.
- Audit · 5.64to5.81
Laboratory directory completed on 22 October 2026: AV Analytics and Analiza Bialek were researched and added under the published lab criteria, so their certificates now receive the recognised-laboratory credit. Lab 4.5 to 4.8.
- Audit · 5.30to5.64
Re-scored on 22 October 2026 under our published rubric for shipping, pricing, operating history and transparency, applied to every vendor the same day: prices re-read from the vendor's site and matched by milligrams per vial, operating history from the earliest dated evidence of the business, and policies scored item by item. shipping and refunds 6.0 to 7.5, pricing 8.0 to 8.5, operating history 4.5 to 4.4, transparency 4.0 to 3.5.
- Audit · 4.97to5.30
Janoshik certificates confirmed on 22 October 2026 at the laboratory's own verification site, so each confirmed report now earns the key-confirmed credit under our published lab rule. Lab 3.9 to 4.5.
- Audit · 4.25to4.97
Lab score recalculated on 22 October 2026 under the uniform published rubric applied to every vendor: every certificate shown is more than 12 months old and now takes the rubric's fixed 25 percent age reduction, which replaces an earlier halving; fixed deductions apply for certificates more than 12 months old. Lab 2.6 to 3.9.
- Audit · 4.37to4.25
Lab evidence re-checked on 20 October 2026 under our coverage rule, which counts a listed product with no published certificate as zero in the lab average. Certificates cover 14 of the 14 products we list that the vendor offers for sale. Lab 2.8 to 2.6.
- Audit · 6.10to4.37
Re-audited 2026-10-18; the May 2026 score was a seed estimate. Lab falls from 4.46 to 2.8: the certificates do name their laboratories (Janoshik, MZ Biolabs, Analiza Bialek, TrustPointe), correcting the earlier note that no lab was disclosed, but the newest is about 14 months old, most are about two years old, none could be confirmed at a laboratory, and several product pages show no certificate or the wrong one. Shipping falls from 8.5 to 6.0: free tracked USPS shipping and a 30-day unused-return policy are confirmed, but loss and damage are handled case by case and checkout offered bank payment only. Pricing moves from 9.5 to 8.0 on 21 live standard prices about 11% below the market median. Tenure moves from 5.9 to 4.5 on a domain registered in March 2023. Transparency moves from 4.6 to 4.0: an address and phone are published, but no operating company is named.
Editor’s notes
Amino Amigos publishes a long certificate library, but none of it is recent. Its reports come from Janoshik, MZ Biolabs, a Polish laboratory, Analiza Bialek, and in one case TrustPointe Analytics, and all name Amino Amigos as the client. The newest is from March 2025 and most date from late 2023 to early 2024, so as of October 2026 they say little about vials on sale. On 22 October 2026 we confirmed six of the Janoshik reports at Janoshik's own verification page. None of the others could be confirmed with a laboratory: the Analiza Bialek results page accepted the report codes but the report files were no longer hosted there, TrustPointe uses a submission form, and the MZ Biolabs reports carry no verification code. Panels cover identity, purity and quantity, with endotoxin on a single tirzepatide report. Several product pages show no report, the Cagri page shows a blend report, and the SS-31 report is for a smaller vial than the one it sells. At our 22 October 2026 check, prices ran about a fifth below the market median, lower on most products we compared. Shipping is free by USPS with tracking, unused items can be returned within 30 days, and damaged or missing items are handled case by case. Checkout offered bank payment only. The site lists an Albuquerque, New Mexico address and phone number but names no operating company, and its domain dates from March 2023. As of October 2026, each of the 14 products we list has at least one laboratory certificate on the site, but the newest is from March 2025, and six Janoshik reports were the only ones we could confirm with the issuing laboratory.

Amino Amigos: Frequently Asked Questions
Is Amino Amigos legit?
Amino Amigos scores 5.62 out of 10 (Fair, tied #65 of 100) as of November 1, 2026 and does not meet our testing gate: all 14 products we score carry a certificate, 6 confirmed with the issuing lab (a lab we grade B+). Its strongest area is pricing (8.4/10) and its weakest is transparency (3.0/10); its operating history on record covers over three years.
Is there a Amino Amigos promo code, coupon code, or discount code?
We do not have a verified Amino Amigos promo code or coupon code right now. When Amino Amigos runs a sale or issues a discount code, we post it here and on our promos page, so bookmark this page for the latest Amino Amigos discount.
Does Amino Amigos use third-party lab testing?
Not to our verification standard. Fewer than half of this vendor's scored products have a certificate from an independent laboratory in our directory (not tier D) whose verification key we confirmed at that laboratory, so the testing gate applies. This records what we could verify; it is not a finding of a quality or safety problem. Laboratories on the certificates we hold: Janoshik Analytical, MZ Biolabs, Analiza Białek.
Where can I see Amino Amigos' COAs?
In the "Amino Amigos COAs and lab test results" table on this page. We hold 14 certificates for Amino Amigos, covering 14 of the 15 products we track, issued by 3 laboratories (Janoshik Analytical, MZ Biolabs, Analiza Białek). 6 products' certificates were confirmed at the issuing laboratory itself. Each row links the certificate, its lab, its test date and the purity it reports.
What peptides does Amino Amigos carry?
Amino Amigos carries TB-500, GHK-Cu, CJC-1295, Ipamorelin, Selank, Melanotan-2, Sermorelin, Tesamorelin, and 7 more. Current per-milligram pricing, COA links, and verification keys for each are in the comparison table on this page.
Is the Amino Amigos review on Peptide Source Review affected by affiliate status?
No. All affiliate relationships are publicly disclosed and never change a vendor's score, rank, or gate status. Our scoring formula is published in full and applied identically to every vendor.
