Review
Below: what it costs, what its pages say on membership, how its counts become ours, and the terms. We have not bought a panel. Its scorecard is on the WHOOP Advanced Labs review page, and every service is ranked on the best blood tests page. WHOOP does not pay us.
What WHOOP Advanced Labs costs
| Panel | Price | Its count | Measured, our count | Calculated | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Basic Health Panel | $69, one test; clinician report $19 extra | 53 | 34 | 14 | Basic panel |
| Comprehensive Health Panel | $199 a year, one test; as low as $150 per test with 4 or more | 75 | 53 | 17 | Comprehensive panel |
| Specialized panels | $299 each | 77 to 90 | Not counted | Not counted | Panels page |
| Galleri test | $649 | Not a marker panel | Not counted | Not counted | Panels page |
Per measured marker, the Basic panel works out to $2.03 and the Comprehensive panel to $3.75. Those sit in our cost per biomarker guide next to every other plan. The Comprehensive page also offers two, four and six tests at a lower price per test. The Basic panel's clinician report is a paid option, and the Comprehensive includes a "clinician-reviewed analysis".
Do you need a WHOOP membership?
WHOOP's pages use different wording, so here is each, with its date:
| Date | Page | What it says |
|---|---|---|
| 3 Aug 2026 | Terms of Use, section 9.5.1 | "Unless otherwise indicated by WHOOP in writing, a WHOOP Membership is required to access WHOOP Advanced Labs." |
| 18 Aug 2026 | WHOOP press release | "WHOOP Advanced Labs is now available without a WHOOP membership" |
| Read 7 Nov 2026 | Panels page FAQ | "No. You can purchase Advanced Labs without a WHOOP membership or wearable." |
We read those together this way: the FAQ and the later announcement are WHOOP saying otherwise in writing, so we show no membership fee on top. You still see results in the WHOOP app, per the FAQ. Its support site mentions an Advanced Labs Only account, but that article did not load for us, so we have not read its terms. If you see a charge you did not expect at checkout, trust the checkout. We did not go that far.
Terms section 9.4 still says a membership ending also ends a Test Subscription. If you do hold a membership, read that section.
How 75 becomes 53
| Step | Basic | Comprehensive |
|---|---|---|
| Lines on its list | 53 | 75 |
| Calculated values out, such as eGFR, anion gap, FIB-4, non-HDL and ratios | 14 | 17 |
| Percent and absolute white-cell lines merged | 5 | 5 |
| Measured, our count | 34 | 53 |
The lists come from each panel's page. Osmolality stays in the measured count, since its page does not call it calculated. The same rules apply to every seller. We do not cover what any result means: that is for a clinician who knows your history.
Labs, states and extra fees
| Item | What it says | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Lab | Quest locations; Terms name Quest Diagnostics and SteadyMD as independent third parties | Terms |
| Who orders | "A licensed physician orders your test for you, no separate doctor visit needed" | Panels page |
| Not sold in | "Arizona, Hawaii, Wyoming, North Dakota, or South Dakota; however, tests may be completed out of state" | Panels page |
| New York, New Jersey, Rhode Island | "Required by state law to pay an additional fee for each panel. This fee is collected at your lab appointment when you check in and varies by panel." | Panels page |
| Age and pregnancy | 18 or older and not pregnant at the time of testing | Panels page |
| HSA or FSA | "You can pay directly with your HSA/FSA card when you select Truemed at checkout." | Panels page |
| CLIA | Not stated as CLIA or CAP on the pages we read | Check with CMS QCOR |
For rules by state, see New York and our New York and New Jersey cost guide.
Refunds and renewal
Its FAQ says "You can receive a full refund within 30 days of purchase, as long as you haven't used any of your tests. Once a test has been taken, it's non-refundable." Tests last 12 months from purchase. Terms section 9.1 says a Test Subscription renews yearly "at WHOOP's then-current price" until you cancel, so note the date if you buy the Comprehensive panel for a single test.
Privacy and reviews
Its privacy policy says "we never sell our members' personal data", and it adds a separate consumer health data notice. Terms section 10.2 requires a HIPAA authorization before scheduling so that Quest and the clinicians can share your information with WHOOP. Our privacy comparison sets wording like this beside other services.
Its Trustpilot profile showed 3.5 from 6,215 reviews on November 7, 2026. That profile is brand-wide, mostly about its wearable and membership, and it is not specific to lab testing.
Questions
FAQ
Do I need a WHOOP band for Advanced Labs?
No, per its FAQ: "You can purchase Advanced Labs without a WHOOP membership or wearable." Results are viewed in the WHOOP app. Its Terms still say a membership is required unless WHOOP says otherwise in writing, and both are quoted above.
How much does WHOOP Advanced Labs cost?
$69 for the Basic panel and $199 a year for one Comprehensive test. Specialized panels cost more, and New York, New Jersey and Rhode Island pay an extra lab fee at the appointment.
How many biomarkers does WHOOP Advanced Labs test?
Its pages say 53 and 75. By our count, 34 and 53 distinct measured markers, with calculated values taken out and white-cell percent and absolute lines merged.
Where is WHOOP Advanced Labs available?
All states except Arizona, Hawaii, Wyoming, North Dakota and South Dakota, per its page, which adds that tests may be completed out of state. New York, New Jersey and Rhode Island pay the extra fee.
Does WHOOP Advanced Labs renew?
The Basic panel is a single test. Terms section 9.1 says a Test Subscription, which is how the Comprehensive panel is sold, renews yearly at the then-current price until cancelled. Refunds run 30 days from purchase if no test has been used.
