GoodRx for Pets: A Comprehensive Solution
The rising cost of pet healthcare has become a significant concern for many Americans. In 2023 alone, pet owners spent over $13B on pet medications, reflecting a broader trend of escalating pet care expenses. With pet insurance coverage remaining low, many pet owners face significant financial burdens when managing their pets’ health.
GoodRx for Pets addresses these challenges by offering:
- Significant savings: Pet owners can save up to 80% on medications for their furry companions, covering common conditions like allergies, anxiety, diabetes, pain, and seizures. These discounts are available at over 70,000 retail pharmacies nationwide.
- Convenient home delivery: Through an integrated e-commerce experience powered by Allivet, pet owners can order medications and have them delivered directly to their homes. This includes access to pet-specific medications not typically available in retail pharmacies.
- Valuable pet health resources: GoodRx provides expert-created articles and videos on various pet health topics, empowering pet owners to make informed decisions about their pets’ care.
“Pet owners have been using GoodRx for years to save on medications for their beloved pets for conditions like anxiety and seizures – to the tune of several million prescriptions per year,” said Aaron Crittenden, SVP of Rx Marketplace at GoodRx. “It’s a pretty strong signal of value when people use your platform for something you haven’t actively pursued. So, we decided to build a focused experience for pet owners with a broader range of medications, more savings, and easy access through both pharmacies and home delivery. We’re excited about what GoodRx for Pets can do for American households over time.”
