REFERRAL OFFER
10% off with disclosed code
Primary PeptideBenchmark offer: referral ?ref=635 with checkout code PEPTIDE10 for 10% off (validate-coupon verified 2026-08-04; source=affiliate). Pricing and Stack Builder model PEPTIDE10 only.
PeptideBenchmark has a disclosed affiliate relationship with SKO Compounds. This does not change benchmark scores or trust ratings — it only affects outbound links and pricing-board discount modeling where applicable.
Readers who want a compact, openly priced peptide catalog paired with a Freedom Diagnostics testing trail that resolves independently at the lab for the large majority of tested products.
Vendor-stated: SKO Compounds is based in West Hollywood, California, and advertises same-day dispatch; free shipping shows as $200+ on-site messaging and $250+ elsewhere on the storefront, so PB treats the higher figure as the conservative, vendor-stated threshold. Observed August 1, 2026.
GLP-3 RT and SKO-TRZ are branded names the vendor's own tags and copy identify as retatrutide (tagged "LY3437943") and tirzepatide respectively; GLOW, KLOW, Wolverine, CJC-1295 + Ipamorelin, and TESA/IPA are house-blend names mapped to their labeled components. 11 products (including MT-1, KPV, Cagrilintide, and PT-141) carry no COA yet and are marked "Coming Soon" by the vendor itself. Bacteriostatic water is a reconstitution supply sold by volume and sits off the mg-normalized board; 8 dosage rows are priced but currently sold out and withheld from the pricing board rather than shown unavailable. PeptideBenchmark's primary disclosed affiliate code is PEPTIDE10 (10% off via ?ref=635). SKO's own SUMMER30 sitewide promo (30%) is secondary only and does not stack — storefront policy is one code at a time — so pricing lanes model PEPTIDE10 alone.
A West Hollywood, California storefront built as a custom app rather than Shopify or WooCommerce, whose product bundle and public /coas page carry 35 recoverable Freedom Diagnostics COA PDFs — 33 of them resolving independently at the lab's own public lookup.
SKO Compounds sits behind a 21+/research-use overlay that gates the rendered page but not the underlying data: the site's own content-hashed JavaScript bundle embeds the full 33-product catalog (name, dosage ladder, per-dosage price, stock, and COA PDF path), and a public Supabase RPC exposes live stock overrides — both readable with a plain unauthenticated fetch. PeptideBenchmark normalizes 29 in-stock dosage rows to $/mg and processed all 35 recovered COA PDFs (25 current-batch, 10 retained prior-batch): every one carries a FreedomDiagnosticsTesting.com letterhead, and 33 verify independently under the SKO Compounds client name at the lab's own public certificate lookup. 11 products are marked "Coming Soon" on SKO's own /coas page and are recorded as an explicit testing gap rather than silently dropped.
Every COA PDF URL is read directly out of SKO's own product bundle (current and retained prior-batch fields), downloaded, and text-extracted rather than guessed from a gallery image. Of 35 recovered Freedom Diagnostics PDFs, 33 resolve live at the lab's public lookup under the "SKO Compounds" client name, reporting HPLC purity (averaging about 99.7%), identity, net content, and endotoxin on applicable batches. Two older Freedom documents no longer resolve and remain named-lab evidence. A separate current Kisspeptin certificate names ILS Laboratories and reports identity, purity, net content, endotoxin, sterility, and heavy metals; because it has no confirmed provider route, those panels remain document-extracted rather than provider-verified.
This vendor is one of 113 names currently included in our manual curated research-vendor layer.
This is the strongest public transparency pattern on the site. The key signal is that readers can leave the vendor domain and inspect reports or verification pages on an outside provider domain without needing to log in.
- Treat the outside provider route as the strongest part of the evidence, not the vendor marketing copy around it.
- Look for repeated product-level behavior across the catalog, not just one showcase example.
- Do not overread it as proof that every current lot is covered or current unless the linked report trail itself supports that.
This vendor makes the most sense when you compare it to other vendors using a similar transparency model, rather than to every vendor on the board at once.
PB Curated Assessment is a PeptideBenchmark-authored rubric built from the trust and transparency review layer. It is separate from the source-derived benchmark score.
SKO Compounds is currently one of the strongest curated cases on the site because readers can inspect a repeatable public evidence trail without logging in.
Readers can leave the vendor marketing layer and inspect verification publicly.
This is the strongest public pattern because the verification step routes into an outside provider layer.
Current review touched 39 products and 52 document/link destinations.

PB Curated Assessment: Strong. This is our own trust/transparency rubric and is kept separate from the PB score.
Under the formula retired on Aug 28, 2026 this vendor scores 9.20 — the live evidence-first score is 7.80 (-1.40). What changed and why: scoring methodology.
Observed from public domain records and the vendor's own site on Aug 27, 2026. Identity facts are shown for context and do not affect scores.
Assayed content is not fill accuracy. Laboratories report net peptide content, and peptides ship as salts, so an honestly filled vial commonly assays below its gross label — a figure under 100% is not evidence of a short vial. These numbers are also not comparable between vendors: they exist only where a laboratory reports net content, so they partly reflect which laboratory a vendor uses.

PB score is the number you should read first on this page. It starts with trust evidence, pricing coverage, and third-party review signals from Finnrick, Peptide Critic, Trustpilot, and Pep Review Pro when available. Reviewed transparency evidence contributes a bounded amount — shown as a trust lift for source-benchmarked vendors, and folded into the base score for PB-evidence vendors.
This vendor’s score is evidence-first: verifiable testing evidence forms the backbone, and outside review sources are a bounded adjustment that can warn far more than it can boost. The terms below sum to the displayed score (small rounding aside). Full formula on the scoring methodology page.
WHAT THIS PAGE IS
- Board-ranked vendor profile with source-linked benchmark inputs
- No Finnrick score currently linked

CURRENT LIMITS
- Not an original lab test or editorial review
- Source scales and methodologies differ across sites
- Depends on source site freshness and formatting
These are representative public examples from the vendor testing review queue. They show how product pages in the catalog expose public report or verification paths, but they should still be read as examples rather than proof for every current lot.
In other words: the relationship registry above captures the vendor-to-provider link itself, while the examples below show what that link looks like across real product pages.
METHODOLOGY
How to read this benchmark
This profile summarizes public benchmark data synced from Finnrick and, when available, Peptide Critic. Finnrick contributes a 10-point average from its vendor table, while Peptide Critic contributes a 5-star rating that we normalize to a 10-point scale before ranking consensus entries.
A high score can be directionally useful, but it is not a substitute for current COAs, identity testing, chain-of-custody details, or your own due diligence. We are intentionally separating source aggregation from first-party editorial claims.
Scores combine PB trust evidence with external signals from Finnrick, Peptide Critic, Trustpilot, and Pep Review Pro when available.
