If you’ve ever purchased kratom, you know pricing varies widely from vendor to vendor. Whether shopping online or at local brick-and-mortar stores, you’ll see kratom products offered at various prices. Dealing with so many prices can have anyone wondering: “How much does kratom cost?”
We don’t recommend solely basing your purchasing decision on pricing. Expensive kratom doesn’t always mean it’s good. Inexpensive kratom isn’t always bad. But pricing is an important aspect of deciding what kratom to buy.
In this deep dive, you’ll learn the average prices for kratom capsules, powder, gummies, extracts, and more! We’ll also cover variations between buying kratom online and locally.

How Much Does Kratom Powder Cost Online?
A part of kratom’s popularity is that this plant exists in many varieties. Typically, you’ll choose kratom powder based on its color, strain, or both. With hundreds of potential combinations existing, we wanted to keep things somewhat simple.
Because of that, we gathered data by choosing a popular kratom strain and color that most vendors carry: White Maeng Da.
Using our vendor list above, here is a breakdown of each vendor’s price for 28, 250, 500, and 1,000 grams of White Maeng Da kratom.
28 grams (1 ounce) | 250 grams (8.81 ounces) | 500 grams (17.63 ounces) | 1,000 grams (1 kilo or 35.27 ounces) |

*N/A = not available because the vendor doesn’t carry kratom in this size. We will use the nearest-sized product when possible.
**Sacred Kratom currently doesn’t sell powdered kratom. So, we used the pricing of its kratom tablets at similar product weights.
How Much Do Kratom Capsules Cost Online?
Kratom capsules aren’t nearly as easy to compare as kratom powder. That’s because vendors often sell kratom capsules in many different quantities. Some vendors sell capsules based on grams, while others sell based on how many capsules are in each package.
We used the following White Maeng Da kratom capsule prices from the following companies:
Here are the average estimated prices for common-size kratom capsule options:
- 250 capsules: $54.24
- 500 capsules: $72.99
- 1,000 capsules: $152.27
Powder Extract Capsules
Some kratom vendors also offer kratom powder extract capsules. These products combine the strength of kratom extracts in a convenient capsule form. We came up with our averages for powder extract capsules from the following companies and products:
- Tusk Kratom Gold Capsules: $14.99 for a 3-pack
- Tusk Kratom Platinum Capsules: $17.99 for a 3-pack
- MIT45 Black Label Capsules: $21.97 for a 2-pack

Based on these costs and averages, you’ll pay about $5.50 per capsule.
How Much Do Kratom Shots Cost?
You’ll often see kratom extracts, which are typically small plastic bottles. Think of these as similar to those well-known multi-hour energy shots.

Based on these prices, a kratom extract costs an average of $13.81.
How Much Do Kratom Gummies Cost?
Kratom gummies have recently gained quite a lot of popularity. As is the case with kratom capsules, kratom gummies can be available in a wide range of servings. Another factor to consider is that vendors include varying amounts of kratom in their gummies.
For instance, Golden Monk puts 10mg of premium kratom extract in each of our kratom gummies. Other companies may use weaker forms of kratom in their extracts. So, make sure you double-check how much kratom each vendor’s gummies contain.
For these averages, we looked at kratom gummy prices from the following vendors:
Based on these prices, we found the following averages:
- 5 gummies: $10.66
- 10 gummies: $21.32
- 20 gummies: $42.64
How Much Do Kratom Beverages Cost? (Teas, Seltzers, etc.,)
As kratom’s popularity continues rising, companies find unique ways to blend this amazing plant into other products. Whether you’re looking for something new to try or don’t like how kratom tastes, these drinks are a delicious way to experience what this plant offers.
For the following calculations, we looked at several popular kratom-based drinks:
- Korthal’s Collection Kratom Cold Brew Tea: $32 for a 3-pack

Taking these costs into consideration, you’ll pay an average of $6.86 per can or bottle of a kratom-infused beverage.
How Much Does Kratom Cost Locally?
How much kratom costs locally varies even more than prices online. Unfortunately, there are too many unknown variables from city to city across the nation to provide an in-depth analysis of local kratom prices throughout the United States. Another problem is that the cost of living can vary wildly from state to state.
Kratom Powder
From the data we looked at, buying kratom locally costs about $9.99 to $14.99 for an ounce of kratom. With several companies in our kratom powder list offering an ounce of kratom for $5.99 to $7.99, it’s easy to see why some people prefer to purchase kratom online.
Kratom Capsules
Kratom capsules purchased locally can be hit or miss. If you choose a reliable and familiar brand of kratom capsules, slightly higher local prices are worth paying for the convenience factor. You may not get this same great experience when purchasing unknown kratom vendor’s capsules.
A recent Reddit thread noted that, in some places, the price of these products can skyrocket to $3.75 for a single capsule. At this price, and considering that most capsules contain 0.5g of kratom, you would be spending $400 for two ounces worth of kratom capsules!
Fortunately, most brick-and-mortar locations sell kratom capsules for fair prices. A more typical average cost for kratom is $15-$20 for 15 to 40 capsules, which contain an average of 0.5g kratom per capsule, which ranges to an average of $0.50 to $1 per capsule. Based on our online average of 250 capsules for $54.24, you’d spend an average of $0.21 per capsule.
Kratom Extracts and Shots
The typical costs for kratom extracts or shots purchased locally are often a little costlier than buying them online. Specialty kratom items such as liquid shots often sell for $10 to $20 each at local gas stations. According to our research presented above, the average cost of a kratom shot online is about $13.81. This puts online kratom extracts and shots on the lower end of the price spectrum.
How Much Kratom Are You Ready to Buy?
We also wanted to provide additional help by assisting in determining how much kratom you’re ready to buy. The following considerations should help ensure you purchase just the right amount of kratom:
- Experience Level: Someone who’s new to kratom and has a low tolerance should only need a small-sized order. Over time, more experienced kratom users may use this product more often. This situation can make bulk ordering beneficial.
- Product Preferences: How you enjoy using kratom also determines how much of it you’ll buy. For example, kratom gummies and extracts are typically sold in smaller amounts. However, a mid-level order of kratom capsules is 200 or 300 capsules.
- Brand Familiarity: Understandably, most people don’t want to spend a large sum of money on a company they’re unfamiliar with. As you continue buying and trying a vendor’s kratom, you can work your way up to larger bulk purchases.
- Storage Method: If you plan on stocking up on kratom by making a bulk purchase, ensure you have a way to properly store your kratom. The best way to store kratom for long-term use is in a dark and dry area, preferably in an airtight container.
Final Thoughts
As you can see, you have many choices when it comes to buying kratom. Sometimes, you can find high-quality kratom at low prices online. Finding similar prices for kratom of the same high quality is also possible in local shops. We encourage you to shop Golden Monk’s product line of powder, capsules, and gummies, if you’re looking for a trustworthy kratom vendor.
