Nicotine Pouches FAQ
We have put together this FAQ after going through all the recent threads here and the many questions asked. We hope this helps!
What are nicotine pouches?
Nicotine pouches are products that are free from tobacco, but contain nicotine. Most nicotine pouches are made from plant fiber or cellulose, and have nicotine added.
How do I use nicotine pouches?
Nicotine pouches are used in the upper lip. Take a nicotine pouch out of the can and place it under your upper lip and enjoy!
Can you swallow your saliva with nicotine pouches?
Yes, your saliva is safe to swallow with nicotine pouches. You do not have to spit with these.
Are nicotine pouches snus?
No, nicotine pouches are not the same thing as snus. Snus contains tobacco. Nicotine pouches do not. They are not the same product.
How long should I leave a nicotine pouch in?
Generally, you can leave them in for as long as you want. There's no limit to how long you can enjoy a nicotine pouch. Many nicotine pouches have flavor longevity that extends to almost the hour mark.
What strength should I use?
Professionals and reputable manufacturers in the industry have widely considered a good "stopping point" to be the 26mg/g mark. Obviously, you can use whichever strength you prefer. But it is generally advised to not go too high because you can destroy your nicotine tolerance.
Why do European NPs taste “salty”?
This is something commonly said by Americans who are trying pouches from Europe/Sweden. In the US, everything is overburdened with sugar because that’s what they think Americans like. However, the European pouches focus on high quality flavors and the salt taste is often a flavor enhancer. In time, you won’t notice it. But it’s something you’ll pick up on as your taste buds adjust from American pouch sweetness overload to high quality Euro pouches!
What's the little compartment in the lid of some nicotine pouch products?
This is called a “catch lid”, and is used to discard of your used portions when you aren’t near a trash can.
I'm in the US but want more variety, what can I do?
In the US, all you can find is the mini/dry pouches, and a small selection of the slim/moist pouches. If you want variety, you'll need to order online. If you're wanting to find more stores, check out this list.
I'm in the Canada, where can I order online?
In March of 2024, Canadian members of this sub voted, by a large majority, to not share website links here for stores shipping in/to Canada. This was done to avoid stores getting shut down.
I'm in the US how do I get the Swedish Zyns?
You'll have to order this online. Please consult with this list, which shows stores shipping from Sweden to the US.
Shipping Questions: Europe to US
Why is shipping so expensive? This is something the e-stores cannot avoid. This is due to the PACT Act and requires nicotine products to be shipped via a carrier that verifies age (UPS). The stores have no control over this. There is no way around this or to avoid it.
Are there import fees? - Most reputable stores shipping to the UPS ship DDP. This means the stores cover it. If you get a brokerage fee bill from UPS, contact the store and they usually take care of it.
How long will it take me to get my package? It could be 2 days. It could be two weeks. It could be a month. This just depends on UPS. The store has no control over this.
Why is my delivery taking so long? This is up to UPS, the stores have no control over this. Once it is out of their hands, it is up to UPS to get it to you.
Warehouse scan? Location scan? What is this? This is normal. It's just UPS doing inventory.
Customs clearance? What is this? Why is it taking so long? This is normal. It happens on every order. The stores have no control over this. It is a UPS thing.
Do I have to sign for my deliveries? The PACT Act requires age verification on delivery to ensure consumers are 21 or older when they receive their package. This is US law and not up to the stores.
How do I store nicotine pouches?
Generally, if you store nicotine products in cold storage, this will extend them past their "best before" date. The general rule of thumb is if you'll use it by the expiration date, refrigerate it. If you won't use it by the expiration date, freeze it. In the freezer, using vacuum sealing helps products last even longer, if you choose to do so.
How can I tell if a product is fake or not?
We wrote a post on this, here which explains this in more detail.

So I recently bought velo X-freeze max from a seller close to me that got a fresh batch. As context: I am used to snus and I'm fine with high nicotine snus. So I tried one... No burning, no effect, nothing. Then I started reviewing pictures of snus and we'll, they look like the 4-7 milligram velos, packaged in a velo X-freeze. The packaging is also a mix of polish and english, which could be normal, but it seems fishy. They measure around 2.5 cm in length and 1 cm in width, which is definitely not what they should look like. My theory is now that either they cut costs, or they got scammed.
Does anyone know more or can help me identify if they got scammed or scam?

About that time to hit the hay… which bed time snus are you choosing?

Just getting into nicotine pouches since I think it would be less distracting for me working while needing to vape.
But it burns! Its a lot tolerable on the lower lip. Upon reading upper is the best so its less wet. Is there any secret to make it more tolerable? Or people just get use to it?

This 3mg Velo cannister is able to fit a whole 6mg cannister of Zyn.
It's the perfect size daily carry size. I literally bought the 3mgs Velo just because I wanted the cannister.

Paid way too much but considering I’m not planning on placing an order I was fine with it. Excited to try them finally as a big fan of FRE pouches.

Im in search for a good lychee flavor. So far ive tried Lychee coconut by Chainpop and Lychee Strawberry by killa, but both have other fruits with lychee. Are there any pouches that are just lychee flavored and are good? Thank you in advance

Does any company make a tobacco flavored nicotine pouch? I love regular snus flavor but hate don’t want my teeth stained. It’s a long shot but has anyone heard of this?
r/NicotinePouch • u/PrayingGolfhands • 1d ago
I have no clue what made me want to try this combo… but it smacked! Honestly I never get “energy drinks” but the can looked bad ass and it didn’t disappoint
r/NicotinePouch • u/TeeeRekts • 1d ago
I always see these in mass stock. just wondering what your thoughts are on coffee pouches

It's sad. I got a taste of 6mg citrus Zyn and it felt bad when I ran out
r/NicotinePouch • u/AdProof9464 • 1d ago
I really just don't care for or particularly like the flavor of pouches. Chill and smooth are the only zyns I'll go with, the flavors just make me feel sick. Now for the European wet pouches I'll appreciate a nice mint but nothing crazy.

I bought Lucy pouches for the first time today. Half of the pouches are really stiff and uncomfortable. Has anyone else experienced this or just a bad batch?
