Our verdict on each
Coach Soak
Coach Soak fits anyone who wants creatine as a sugar-free gummy rather than a mixed powder, and the 15% to 25% off a subscription makes the creatine gummy bottle worth reordering. It scores 9 here, with a Coach Soak entry bottle at $36.95 doing most of the convincing work.
Protein Works
Protein Works suits shoppers who want a wide range of daily supplement categories at a low entry price, with £8.99 to start. Buyers who put independent lab testing at the top of their list should look further, since third-party testing is not offered.

Pros and cons
Coach Soak
Pros
- Third-party tested and sugar-free gummies, so creatine fits into a routine without a powder shaker.
- A 7-flavour shelf means a taste preference is easy to satisfy before committing.
- Subscription deliveries take 15% to 25% off, which is where the saving sits on repeat orders.
Cons
- Support runs on email, phone and help centre only, which is thin when a reorder needs answering today.
- Without a subscription, the creatine gummy bottle sits at $36.95, so the discount is the reason to come back.
- The 15% to 25% saving comes with deliveries set in advance, so a change of plan leaves stock you had not planned on.
Protein Works
Pros
- Covers a wide list of categories in multivitamins, vitamins minerals and omega 3, from multivitamins to electrolytes.
- Entry point of £8.99 with a per serving cost of £0.15, ranked 15 of 121 brands on price per serving.
- The range suits different diets, with vegan, vegetarian and gluten free options on the multivitamin formula.
Cons
- Delivery covers GB, IE and FR, which is a narrower set of markets than some pharmacy-led rivals.
- The range carries 8 flavours on its whey protein line, but the entry pricing and per serving cost come from the multivitamin product.
- The £8.99 entry price ranks 23 of 157 brands, so the price on the front of the pack sits mid-table.

Who should look elsewhere

- Buyers in the United Kingdom, IE and FR who value a low per serving cost of £0.15.
Who should look elsewhere

- People who want licensed or prescription oversight, as no licence appears against this brand.

Questions about each
Coach Soak
How much does a bottle of Coach Soak cost?+
A bottle of the Coach Soak creatine monohydrate gummies costs $36.95 at entry, sold direct from the store rather than through a third-party listing. Delivery is the second lever: setting up a subscription takes 15% to 25% off, with the largest cut on the shortest schedule. The two figures to weigh are the entry bottle and the subscription price.
Does a subscription really cost less?+
On the published numbers, yes. The Coach Soak creatine gummy bottle drops by 15% to 25% once deliveries are scheduled, and the biggest discount goes with the shortest delivery window. The catch is commitment, since the saving is tied to repeat deliveries rather than a cheaper single order, so a shopper who tries it once may end up paying for stock they had not planned.
Protein Works
How much does Protein Works cost to start?+
The entry price is £8.99 for the multivitamin product. The same product works out at £0.15 per serving, so a larger pack lowers the cost per serving. The per serving figure ranks 15 of 121 brands in this category.
Is there a discount for ordering repeatedly?+
Yes, subscriptions carry a 15% discount against the entry price of £8.99. The discount applies to repeat orders rather than the first purchase, so it only shows on the ongoing cost. Orders placed on a subscription continue until you change them.
