We monitor reviews for authenticity
I like the products I order from Thrive, but I hate when it's time for my order to review, you have put things in my cart that I would never order and I have to delete them. You have no right to put anything in my cart - EVER. And this time, I had my order ready, checked it and the price because I'm on a limited budget, and now that it is processed it is about $15 higher than it was when I checked it yesterday. I will not be renewing when my subscription is up for those reasons. I like the products, but there is absolutely no need for this deceptive marketing, and for that reason you will be losing me as a customer.
BOTH of our orders have been delivered to the COMPLETELY WRONG address and there has been no resolution. Very disappointing and frustrating experience.

Thank you for your feedback and for giving us the opportunity to make this right. Thank you for choosing Thrive Market!
Not one order has been timely and my yogurt, which was the wrong yogurt I don't even like that kind of yogurt didn't get here for two weeks because your employees did not put my address down now. I've received stuff from you before so I know my address is in your system.
Return my membership $60 is a lot of money to give away for bad service

Please know that we take your feedback seriously, and we're here to make things right. Thank you for choosing Thrive Market!
Feeling screwed from day 1.
The $60 subscription offer is not $60. It is "up to $60" from a list of stupid items to select from that are not even worth close to $60.
On top of that, they advertise huge discounts, that are completely disconnected from prices in the market. Showing me an article at $3.25 vs $6.99 regular price. That article is at $3.99 everywhere.
Not a good start at all…

Heavy synthetic fragrance on food items. I am a doctor of epidemiological studies and I cannot express more emphatically to you or how bad this is for your neuroendocrine system. Anyone with any kind of chronic or autoimmune illness needs to stay very far away from these types of scents especially on food. There needs to be a lot better oversight contamination. The second issue is that they use on trac so good luck getting your deliveries in any kind of timely manner. You may think to yourself, I'll just purchase some frozen items because surely they will have to arrive on time and nope, they will still arrive leaking and getting all over anything it touches. Not fun when you live in Bear country.
Thank you for sharing your concerns. We take your feedback seriously, especially regarding the use of synthetic fragrances and the impact on health. We understand how important it is to avoid contaminants, and we will review this issue with our team to ensure we are offering the best possible products for our customers.

If you have any further concerns or need assistance, please don’t hesitate to reach out to help@thrivemarket.com. Thank you for allowing us a chance to make this right!
I found the portions of the products to be far too small for the average American diet of 2,000 calories per the price point of the products. I understand they're a higher quality, but it just isn't a viable alternative to brick-and-mortar grocery stores when you're on a budget.
Thank you for your feedback. We understand that portion sizes and pricing are important, and we’re sorry to hear our products didn’t meet your expectations. While we focus on high-quality, organic options, we know it may not always align with every budget. If you have any specific concerns or suggestions, please reach out to help@thrivemarket.com. We appreciate your input. Thanks for choosing Thrive Market!
Site is really difficult to use, difficult to accept my credit card! Somehow things got in my cart I did not put there! Shouldn't have to keep taking things out. Won't take dates just keep asking over and over for the same thing.
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re very sorry to hear about your experience. We value our members and want to ensure they have a seamless experience while navigating our site and placing orders. We would like to look into this further. If you have any additional questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us at help@thrivemarket.com or through chat—we’re here to help!
I think Thrive offers a lot of value. However, I dislike how things can get set to autoship without your realizing it, how it automatically renewed my membership when I'm pretty sure I disabled that, and how their bribe/credit to keep my membership had a short expiration date I almost missed. I don't like this way of doing business and I'd rather just go to the store.
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re glad to hear that you find value in Thrive Market, but we’re truly sorry to hear about the issues you’ve experienced with Autoship, automatic renewals, and the short expiration on the exclusive offer to keep your membership active. We understand how frustrating these situations can be, and we take your concerns seriously. We always aim to make our processes clear and transparent, and we’re grateful for your input on how we can improve. If you ever decide to give us another try or need assistance with managing your account, please feel free to reach out to our Member Services team at help@thrivemarket.com or through chat. We genuinely appreciate you being part of our community!
The 60 dollar a year membership a scam. It's wrong and I believe there is a lawsuit pending because of them automatically renewing the "subscrption" fee of $60. I haven't used it in a year. Thought I canceled it and they want to refund $20. And allow me to keep using it when I can even afford to pay my electric bill.
Thank you for sharing your feedback, and we’re sorry to hear about your negative experience. It looks like you may have previously accepted an exclusive offer to continue your membership, but we haven’t received any cancellation requests since then. Regarding your membership, renewal memberships with purchases are not eligible for a refund. However, all new annual memberships come with a 30-day risk-free period for a full refund if you decide to cancel within that time frame. Please know that you can always reach out to our Member Services team at help@thrivemarket.com or via chat, and they will be happy to assist with any cancellation requests. We genuinely appreciate you giving us a try.
Thrive market sent our order of frozen items without a cold pack! The food items were hot and ruined. They have ZERO customer service. With great difficulty, we canceled our subscription. Horrible experience. They do not care about their customers. If I could give them 0 stars I would.
We’re so sorry for the trouble with your order. Damaged orders are uncommon, but we completely understand how inconvenient this is. We’ve reported this to our operations team to ensure improvements moving forward. If you haven’t already, please connect with our Member Services team at help@thrivemarket.com or via chat here—we’d love to make things right.
I made an Amazon purchase not realizing it was sourced by Thrive and not realizing there is an annual membership fee of $59.95. Hidden fees really peeve me! Cancelling membership immediately.

I am upset with Thrive Market's awful website! I wasted two days struggling to simply buy a gift card for a friend! Instead, I wasted hours dealing with this website's user-hostile layout and operation, its unresponsive chat automation, its poor and unclear messaging, its deceptive way of tricking people into purchases and memberships, and its over-the-top toxic, confusing, and repeated promotion popups constantly reminding me to order more stuff!
I've had it!
My friend is on a special diet and she loves Thrive Market, and she needs it b/c of her diet restrictions. I'm glad Thrive is providing her what she needs. But, I recommend thst those who don't absolutely need this service avoid this horrible website and its over-the-top toxic version of craven, money grubbing internet capitalism.
We’re so sorry to hear about your frustrating experience. We truly appreciate your feedback and apologize for the issues you faced with our website, chat automation, and pop-ups. This is definitely not the experience we want to provide, and we’ll be passing your comments along to improve our site and overall customer experience. We’re glad Thrive Market is able to meet your friend’s dietary needs, and we hope we can make things right moving forward. If you haven’t already, please contact our Member Services team at help@thrivemarket.com and we’ll be glad to assist. Thank you for choosing Thrive Market!
I thought I placed my order before my thrive cash expired and I didn't now I can't use it
It should never expire anyways as long as my account is active
Thank you for your feedback, and we completely understand your frustration. Thrive Cash expires 30 days from when it's issued, which is why it’s no longer available for use. However, we’d be happy to add it back to your account. If you haven’t already, please contact our Member Services team at help@thrivemarket.com or chat with us here, and we’ll be glad to assist you in making this right. Thank you for choosing Thrive Market!
I used to be a subscriber and have signed up again. All I want to do it shop your various departments buy the things I want and get them shipped. I am single and don't need regular shipments but your site keeps bombarding me with "sign up for timed shipments for the same items. The whole experience was frankly annoying, I understand the financial benefit to the company to do this but I don't need it and would guess that many don't. I placed an order and will try it again and hope the experience improves
Thank you for sharing your experience with us, and we truly apologize for any frustration caused. We want your shopping experience to be simple and enjoyable, so we’ll take your feedback to heart and work on improving the process. We appreciate your patience and hope that your next order is more to your liking.

Start packing the heavy stuff on the bottom or send out two boxes or I'm canceling my subscription. It says I need 100 words I don't have 100 words to explain to ship the stuff decent. I'm getting tired of paying for stuff that comes damaged.
Thank you for reaching out, and we are sorry to hear about the issues you’ve been experiencing with your shipments. We always strive to ensure that our products arrive in perfect condition, and we truly understand your frustration. Your feedback has been shared with our operations team to help us improve. If you haven’t yet, please reach out to our Member Services team at help@thrivemarket.com or via chat—we’re here to help.
It's a pain to order, the selection of products I can use is very limited, many of the products I have tried are gross, and I hate the membership fee and the additional "safety" fee (whatever that is) NO other company has it. The only reason I order from them at all is because they have two products I can't get anywhere else.
Thank you for your feedback, and we’re truly sorry to hear about your frustration with the ordering process, product selection, and fees. We understand how important it is to have a variety of quality options, and we’re always working to improve our offerings. The safety fee is in place to help maintain high standards in our shipping and handling processes, but you can always opt out online at any time. We’re grateful to have the two products you love, and we hope to continue providing them to you while also improving your overall experience. If you ever have suggestions or need assistance, please don’t hesitate to reach out at help@thrivemarket.com —we’re here to help!
For 3 months I kept getting a cinnamon granola packaged as the mixed berry. I called and reported this multiple times and nothing was done. If we don't know what it in the package, how are we to know it is safe to eat especially if we have allergies. If a customer calls with an issue, please take it seriously. I will be canceling my subscription.
We are truly sorry to hear about the issues you've experienced with receiving the wrong item, and we completely understand how concerning this must have been, especially with allergies involved. Your safety and satisfaction are incredibly important to us, and we apologize for this. We have shared your feedback with our team.

I recently purchased a bottle of olive oil and an expired last month. The one I replaced it with expired June of 2025. I've tried to reach out but I haven't had any response.

More predatory than Comcast and just as hard to cancel. Last year I signed up for a free trial and placed an order. After it hadn't been delivered in two weeks, I contacted customer service to check on the order and to cancel. After having to deal with a chat bot through 5 rounds of offers about upcoming deals, I was transferred to a representative. I timed it, and it was 5 minutes for the real person to connect, then three minutes to the second for every message after that. I'm sure they have it set automatically so that people get frustrated and close the chat window. They ended up cancelling my membership while we were chatting (after three more rounds of increasingly better offers) and agreed to reship the order that never left the warehouse. The order took another week to ship. Just this morning I received an email that my membership auto-renewed. Apparently because they shipped the replacement order after my membership had cancelled, it reactivated. I didn't get charged for last year, but I did for the renewal. I just had to go through the exact same chatbot system of offers and representative offers before being able to cancel. This company is doing everything it can to take your money.
