Financial Relief Program

Simple Apothecary is committed to making products available to as many people as possible, regardless of financial ability. If you qualify for the Financial Relief Program, you will be able to purchase handcrafted remedies from Simple Apothecary at a reduced rate. All discounts offered are for products made by Simple Apothecary only. Read on to see if you qualify.

What would I qualify for?

Qualified members may purchase any products made by Simple Apothecary at either a 10% or 50% discount off regular prices. You will still have to pay sales tax and shipping on your purchases.

What are the conditions or limits?

As a reminder, I’m a small business, not a large faceless corporation. I do this because I feel strongly people need natural remedies, regardless of their financial situation. In return, I ask that you only purchase what you need yourself at these discounted rates. Purchases made at the full retail rate help support this program.

Once qualified, you can order up to $75 in products each month (the limit is calculated at the discounted rate). The monthly cap will reset on the 1st of each month. You are still responsible for sales tax and any applicable shipping fees. No coupons can be used at the same time as this discount.

Do I qualify?

Please read through this section carefully. There are two tiers of discounts available to anyone in the United States that qualifies. You will have to turn in some basic documents to prove you qualify. For some discounts, you will be expected to submit updated documents on a regular basis to stay qualified (such as a student).

If you already know you're qualified, you can skip ahead to how to apply.
