Check your plan terms for an Early Termination Fee

Nutrisystem ETF - when it applies and how much

Nutrisystem's Early Termination Fee typically applies when you cancel a discount plan before completing the agreed number of 4-week auto-delivery orders (usually 2–3 cycles). The ETF is generally around $125, which covers the discount you received upfront. Month-to-month plans ("Flex" plans) do not have an ETF. Check your original order confirmation to see which plan you signed up for.

Returning Nutrisystem food

For plans with an ETF, Nutrisystem may waive the fee if you return unopened food within a specified window. Return shipping is typically not free. Contact support to get a return authorization number (RA#) before sending anything back - items returned without an RA# may not be credited to your account.

Nutrisystem refund policy

Nutrisystem does not refund opened food. Unopened food returned with an RA# within the allowed window may be credited. If you were charged after a confirmed cancellation, dispute the charge with your bank using the dispute letter tool.
