How it works

How Factor Meals works: order, delivery, heat, eat

Factor is a weekly subscription — no cooking, no meal prep, no grocery runs for the meals you subscribe to. Here is the full flow from sign-up to eating.

Step 1

Choose your plan

Select a meal plan (Keto, Calorie Smart, Protein Plus, Vegan & Veggie, or Chef's Choice) and how many meals per week (6, 8, 10, 12, 14, or 18). You can mix meals from any plan in a single week.

Step 2

Pick your meals each week

Every week, Factor posts a new rotating menu. Log in to your account by the cutoff (usually Wednesday night) to select the meals you want delivered the following week. If you don't select, Factor auto-selects based on your plan.

Step 3

Meals arrive fresh

Your meals arrive in an insulated, refrigerated box with ice packs — fresh, not frozen. Each meal is in a microwave-safe tray. Delivery day varies by ZIP code; Factor shows your delivery day at checkout.

Step 4

Heat in 2 minutes

Remove the plastic film, microwave for approximately 2 minutes (oven heating is also an option), and eat. No prep, no cleanup beyond the tray. Meals keep for up to 7 days in the fridge or 2 months frozen.

Anytime

Pause, skip or cancel

You can pause your subscription, skip individual weeks, or cancel at any time through your Factor account. No cancellation fee. Changes must be made before the weekly cutoff for that week's delivery.

Optional

Add breakfast & snacks

The Factor add-on shop offers breakfast items (egg bites, overnight oats), wellness shots, protein shakes and cold brew as weekly extras. Add-ons are billed per item at a la carte rates.

Cross-contact is possible in Factor's kitchen. If you have a severe food allergy, review allergen labels and contact Factor's support before subscribing.

About Factor Meals

Chef-prepared fresh meals delivered weekly — no cooking required.

Factor (formerly Factor 75) was founded in 2013 in Chicago with a focus on the ketogenic diet, initially using a 75% fat / 25% protein macro ratio. The service expanded to cover broader dietary goals (Calorie Smart, Protein Plus, Vegan & Veggie, Chef's Choice) and was acquired by HelloFresh in 2020 for $277 million. The brand was renamed from Factor 75 to Factor in 2021.

Factor ships fresh meals nationwide across the contiguous U.S. Meals are prepared in professional kitchens by trained chefs and reviewed by registered dietitians. The service is designed for people who want the nutrition of home-cooked meals without the time investment of cooking.

Common questions

Factor Meals FAQ — plans, pricing, delivery & more

Answers to the questions people most commonly ask about Factor Meals before subscribing.

How much does Factor Meals cost per meal in 2026?

Factor meal pricing depends on how many meals per week you select. Larger plans cost less per meal. As of 2026, plans generally range from roughly $10–$15 per meal before any first-order discount (Factor regularly offers 50%+ off your first box). The 18-meal/week plan is the lowest per-meal price; the 6-meal/week plan is the highest. Confirm current pricing at factor75.com, as promotional rates change weekly.

What meal plans does Factor offer?

Factor offers five dietary plan tracks: Keto (low-carb, high-fat), Calorie Smart (under 550 calories per meal), Protein Plus (30 g+ protein per meal), Vegan & Veggie (plant-based), and Chef's Choice (premium, chef-crafted meals). Within each plan you choose 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, or 18 meals per week. You can mix meals across plans in a single week.

How do Factor Meals arrive and how do you heat them?

Factor meals ship fresh (refrigerated, not frozen) in an insulated box with ice packs. Each meal arrives in a microwave-safe tray — heating takes about 2 minutes in the microwave. Oven heating is also an option. No cooking, chopping or meal prep required. Meals are meant to be eaten within the week they arrive; Factor recommends consuming within 7 days or freezing for up to 2 months.

Is Factor Meals the same as Factor 75?

Yes. Factor 75 rebranded to simply Factor (sometimes written Factor_) in 2021 to signal a broader mission beyond the original 75% fat / 25% protein ketogenic ratio. The company is now owned by HelloFresh. The service URL is still factor75.com, which redirects correctly.

Are Factor Meals gluten-free?

Many Factor meals are certified gluten-free (tagged GF on the menu), but Factor is not a certified gluten-free facility. Cross-contact is possible. If you have celiac disease or a serious gluten sensitivity, review each meal's allergen information at factor75.com and consult Factor's customer support before ordering.

Can I pause or cancel my Factor subscription?

Yes. Factor is a weekly subscription you can pause, skip a week, or cancel at any time through your account dashboard. The weekly menu cutoff (usually Wednesday night for the following week's delivery) is the deadline to make changes. There is no cancellation fee.

How does Factor compare to HelloFresh or Blue Apron?

Factor is a fully prepared meal service (no cooking required), while HelloFresh and Blue Apron are meal-kit services (ingredients + recipe cards, you cook). Factor meals are ready in 2 minutes; HelloFresh/Blue Apron require 20–45 minutes of active cooking. Factor costs more per serving but saves significantly more time. HelloFresh is also Factor's parent company after its 2020 acquisition.

What are the most popular Factor meals?

Based on recurring availability and customer reviews, consistently popular Factor meals include the Chipotle Beef Burrito Bowl (Keto), Grass-Fed Beef Burger Bowl (Protein Plus), Salmon with Roasted Vegetables (Protein Plus / GF), and Truffle Mushroom Risotto (Chef's Choice). Factor rotates the weekly menu, so availability varies — popular meals reappear frequently.

Does Factor Meals have a referral program?

Yes. Factor has a referral program where existing subscribers can share a discount link with friends — both the referrer and the new subscriber typically receive a credit or discount off a future box. Terms and amounts change with promotions; check your Factor account dashboard for your current referral offer.
