Is Noom a Legitimate Company?

Still, due to the high volume of complaints received in the past year, the BBB has given Noom a "D" rating and is urging consumers to be wary about signing up for free trial offers.

How much does Noom actually cost?

How Much Does Noom Cost? While Noom does advertise a free one-week trial, a subscription costs up to $59 a month. Each plan is individualized, and the recommended duration of the program is based on the amount of weight you want to lose. I wanted to lose 12 pounds, so a four-month plan was suggested.

Is Noom credible?

It's scientifically validated. Noom has been scientifically studied (although minimally) and shown to help people lose weight and keep it off. In one study among almost 36,000 people who were Noom users, almost 80 percent reported weight loss while using the app for a median of 267 days.
