How to Save Money on the X39 Patches
For first-time patch buyers, navigating the Lifewave website can be a bit confusing because there are SO many different ways to purchase the patches, and it is hard for some people to decipher the most affordable way to purchase them.
So let’s discuss!
If you want to get the best bang for your buck, you have 2 main options to save money on Lifewave patches: You can either become a Preferred Customer OR join Lifewave as a Brand Partner, which I will further discuss below.
1 . Become a Preferred Customer - This requires a monthly auto-subscription, which can be cancelled at anytime. To access the Preferred Customer pricing, you’ll need to add all items to cart. Then when you checkout, it will ask if you want to save money by auto-subscribing (aka becoming a Preferred Customer).
When you choose this option, you’ll then be presented with 2 different ‘Preferred Customer’ options. This is where people often get confused - You can either become a regular “Preferred Customer” or you can join the “PC Plus Program”, which I’ll explain below.
Preferred Customer - As a preferred customer you’ll get wholesale pricing on patches and any other Lifewave products.
It’s completely FREE to become a Preferred Customer, but keep in mind you do need to have a monthly auto-subscription.
PC Plus Program (aka Preferred Customer Plus Program) - If you choose this option, you’ll receive wholesale pricing, AND free patch samples every month for a total of 6 months. Each sample pack contains 10 patches.
For this option, it’s only $20 a year, and is totally worth it for the free samples in my opinion.
Keep in mind this does require a monthly auto-subscription just like the regular ‘Preferred Customer’ option.
2. Become a Brand Partner - This does NOT require a monthly auto-subscription, and is my preferred method to save money on the patches.
For those who don’t know what a Lifewave Brand Partner is, it’s a fancy way of saying that you’re an independent representative or distributor for Lifewave, and you have the rights to sell Lifewave products and make a commission doing so.
As a Brand Partner, you’ll receive wholesale pricing on all Lifewave products just as you would as a Preferred Customer, but you don’t have to have an auto-subscription. Plus there are a few additional money saving perks if you choose this option!
Is there a start-up cost to become a Lifewave Brand Partner?
There is a $25 annual fee.
Note: When you sign up as a Brand Partner, that $25 fee is waived the first year as long as you select one of the following enrollment kits: Core, Advanced or Premium. When you choose from one of those 3 packages, you will have the option to pick out which patches you want to be included in your kit. If you select the cheapest Brand Partner package called “The Starter Enrollment”, you ARE required to pay the $25 fee the first year because it does NOT include patches. The Starter Enrollment is great for anyone who cannot currently afford to buy patches, but wants to get their Lifewave business going.

Is there a sales quota to become a Lifewave Brand Partner?
No. The great thing about being a Lifewave Brand Partner is you aren’t required to sell! There are zero sales quotas, so that means that even if you have no intention of selling, you can still become a Brand Partner. Many people become Brand Partners just so they can get wholesale pricing and the other pricing discounts! Note: When you sign up as a Brand Partner, Lifewave will create your own Lifewave website should you choose to sell. But again, there is no obligation to sell.
Is there a minimum purchase amount to become a Lifewave Brand Partner, or remain a Brand Partner?
No. As a Brand Partner, there are no minimum purchase requirements. You can purchase as frequently or infrequently as you please, and still remain a Brand Partner. This means you could go an entire year without buying patches, and you will still remain a Brand Partner. There is, however, a $25 annual fee to remain a Brand Partner.
Do keep in mind - If your intention is to sell the patches (or you think you may sell the patches in the future), it is in your best interest to keep an “active status” as a Brand Partner so that once you meet all requirements to earn commission, you will have an accumulation of points or volume that you can benefit from. If you’re just starting out, an active status basically means you’re purchasing at least 1 sleeve of patches every month. Unfortunately, this does not mean you can purchase two sleeves of patches in February, and zero patches in March and expect to remain active in March. You would only remain active in February. If you lose your active status, this simply means that you lose all the points (or volume) you accumulated over the past few months. I unfortunately learned this the hard way. There are more complicated details to it than this, but I wanted to explain it in a way that wouldn’t be too confusing since you’re probably very new to this. I will, however, further discuss this in a future article. Just remember - You DON’T have to have an active status to remain a Brand Partner or get wholesale pricing. The benefit of keeping an active status is you’re accumulating points (or volume) which you can get paid on in the future. This is why I say if you have the slightest interest in selling the patches, go ahead and sign up as a Brand Partner, and remain active. The best way to ensure you remain an active Brand Partner is auto-subscribe!
Is the wholesale pricing as a Lifewave Brand Partner the same wholesale pricing as a Lifewave Preferred Customer?
Yes, but there are additional money saving perks that Brand Partners receive and Preferred Customers don’t, which is why I think becoming a Brand Partner is superior to becoming a Preferred Customer. I will first explain the similarities between Preferred Customer and Brand Partner pricing, followed by the differences.
Let’s review pricing for the following patches:. Alavida, Energy Enchancer, Glutathione, Carnosine, Aeon, SP6, Icewave, Silent Nights, AcuLife
1 sleeve = $69.95 with Preferred Customer or Brand Partner wholesale pricing
2 sleeves = $59.95 per sleeve with Preferred Customer or Brand Partner wholesale pricing
3+ sleeves = $49.95 per sleeve with Preferred Customer or Brand Partner wholesale pricing
Each sleeve contains 30 patches.Retail price for the patches mentioned above is $79.95 per sleeve.
The X39 and X49 unfortunately don’t have quantity discounts like the Lifewave patches mentioned above. You simply get the wholesale price of $99.95 regardless of however many X39 and X49 patches you buy (as long as you are either a Preferred Customer or Brand Partner). There are, however, still ways to get a larger discount on them IF you become a Brand Partner AND you purchase them with a certain strategy in mind…
How to Get a Deeper Discount on the X39 and X49 as a Brand Partner:
1) Select a More Expensive Enrollment Kit When you Sign up as a Brand Partner: When you enroll as a Brand Partner, you could select the Advanced enrollment kit and get 6 X39s or X49s for $89 per sleeve, or with the Premium kit, you could get 20 X39s or X49s for $87.50 per sleeve, as opposed to the regular wholesale price of $99.95!
2) Upgrade Your Enrollment Kit: After your initial purchase (as a Brand Partner), there is the option to upgrade your enrollment kit. For example, if you initially signed up with the Starter or Core kit, you can later upgrade your kit and benefit from the discounted pricing from either the Advanced or Premium kit. Or if you are already signed up under the Advanced kit, you can later upgrade to the Premium kit and benefit again from discounted pricing this way. Note: With the Advanced and Premium Enrollment kits, you will get a deeper discount on the other Lifewave patches too (ie. Alavida, Energy Enchancer, Alavida, Glutathione, Carnosine, Aeon, SP6, Icewave, Silent Nights). With the Advanced kit, they are priced at $44.58 per sleeve, and with the Premium kit, they are $43.75.
3) Maintenance Packs: If you are already a Brand Partner and don’t want to upgrade your enrollment kit (or you already have the Premium kit), there is another way to save money on the X39 and X49, and that’s with Maintenance Packs! All Brand Partners have the exclusive ability to purchase further discounted Maintenance Packs AFTER they’ve signed up and paid for an enrollment kit. There are several maintenance pack options, but 3 of them are specifically for the X39 and X49. For example, with the LifeWave X39 / X49 Maintenance Pack 1, you can choose 3 sleeves of either X39 and X49, and they are priced out at $89.95 per sleeve, as opposed to the regular wholesale price of $99.95! Note: You won’t see this as an option until AFTER you’re already signed up as a Brand Partner.
Note: The retail price for the X39 and X49 is $150.

I hope this information has been helpful!
If you’re still struggling with deciding whether to become a Preferred Customer or Brand Partner, I recommend signing up as a Brand Partner. The benefits of becoming a Brand Partner far exceed the benefits of a Preferred Customer in my opinion, especially if you want a deeper discount for the X39 and X49. I definitely don’t ever recommend retail pricing (aka checking out as a guest). There is really no benefit to purchasing at the retail price.
