  1. Fast order processing
  2. Discreet packaging
  3. Secure payment options

Once your order is confirmed, your kit ships directly to your door.


Step 3: Collect Your Sample

Follow the easy step-by-step instructions included in your kit.

  • DNA Tests: Usually involve a simple cheek swab.
  • STD Tests: May involve urine, swab, or small blood sample collection depending on the kit.
  • Drug Test Cups: Provide results directly from the collected urine sample.

All kits are designed for privacy and ease of use at home.


Step 4: Send to the Lab (If Required)

For DNA and most STD tests, you will:

  • Secure your sample as instructed.
  • Use the prepaid packaging (if included) to send it to the certified lab.

Drug test cups typically provide instant results, though confirmatory lab testing may be required for employment or legal purposes.

  • STD Results: Usually available within 2–5 business days.
  • Drug Test Cups: Results are available immediately, with optional lab confirmation if needed.

Results are delivered securely and confidentially.
