GlossGenius is known for offering sleek scheduling and POS tools for beauty professionals and medspas. But if your business deals with GLP-1 medications, peptides, or online weight loss treatments, there’s a significant problem. GlossGenius does not support high-risk payment processing.
For medspas operating in 2025, especially those offering telehealth services or regulated treatments like semaglutide or tirzepatide, using a platform like GlossGenius can result in frozen accounts, delayed payouts, or permanent shutdowns.
At Corepay, we are a fully compliant, high-risk payment processor that supports modern medspas, weight loss clinics, and wellness providers. Whether you’re offering prescription services, shipping to patients nationwide, or running a subscription-based model, Corepay provides a secure, bank-approved solution built for your exact needs.
Why GlossGenius Fails for Weight Loss Merchants
GlossGenius focuses on the front end, appointment booking, POS, and CRM. But its payment infrastructure is powered by low-risk platforms like Stripe, which explicitly prohibit many of the services that weight loss clinics offer.
Here’s what that means for you:
- GLP-1 products like semaglutide will trigger account reviews or immediate shutdowns
- Your business is likely categorized under the wrong MCC, increasing your risk exposure
- There’s no support for LegitScript certification
- No dispute management tools or chargeback prevention
- No infrastructure for complying with Visa’s VAMP rules
If your services include prescription medication or telehealth, you’re not just “outside the box,” you’re considered high-risk by default. That’s where we can help at Corepay.

Real-World Example: Selling Weight Loss Treatments Online
If your medspa begins offering online consultations for weight loss, followed by prescription fulfillment of semaglutide. Ifyou’re processing through GlossGenius, you’re subject to Stripe’s prohibited products list. Your account could be frozen overnight, and any pending revenue held indefinitely.

Why Clinics Are Moving from GlossGenius to Corepay
The shift toward medical-grade treatments, peptides, and telehealth is not a trend, it’s the future of the medspa industry. GlossGenius, while visually appealing and user-friendly, was never built for regulated sales or advanced compliance.
Corepay is.
We work with:
- Medspas offering in-person and virtual care – View our medspa payment processing page here.
- Clinics selling GLP-1 treatments and weight loss programs
- Telehealth brands scaling across multiple states
- Entrepreneurs launching online wellness subscriptions
You deserve a processor that enables your growth, not one that stops it.
Final Thoughts
If you’re offering regulated treatments, you’re not just running a spa, you’re operating in one of the most highly scrutinized verticals in payments.
GlossGenius may be a sleek frontend solution, but its Stripe-based payments simply cannot support high-risk businesses like yours.
Corepay is the best alternative to GlossGenius for Medspa and weight loss merchants. We’re a fully compliant, all-in-one, high-risk payment processor built for GLP-1 support, chargeback defense, and long-term stability.
