How I managed to snag the US AG1 travel pack deals from France when my card kept getting declined

Why I wanted the US version of AG1 Travel Packs

I have been tracking my health habits closely in 2026, and AG1 (Athletic Greens) remains a staple in my routine. While we have local options, I noticed that the US subscription for the 30-count Travel Packs offers significantly better value. Specifically, the 'first-order' bonuses—which include a premium shaker and a year's supply of Vitamin D3+K2—are often much more generous than what I found through regional distributors.

The convenience of the travel packs is a huge plus for my lifestyle. I often browse popular products and us trends to see what else is worth bundling, but the AG1 deal stood out because of those specific extras that aren't always available here in Europe.

The hidden barriers for us in France

My journey hit a snag when I realized that the US Athletic Greens site doesn't always make it easy for those of us living in France. There is an invisible barrier when it comes to international logistics and payment processing. Many US-based wellness brands prioritize domestic customers, making it difficult to even enter a French billing address during the checkout process.

I also worried about the transit itself. Without a reliable freight forwarder, getting these supplements across the Atlantic can be a headache involving lost packages or opaque tracking.

How I used a freight forwarder to bridge the gap

To get around the shipping restrictions, I set up a tax-free US address. This allowed me to shop US store sites just like a local. If you are new to this, I recommend checking out this step-by-step guide on how it works.

The process was simple: I sent my AG1 order to my US suite, and then requested international shipping to my home in Paris. It’s the most efficient way to access US-only inventory without needing a friend in the States to mail things for you.

Shipping estimates for your AG1 box

Before I committed, I used a shipping calculator to estimate shipping cost. Here is what I found for the AG1 Travel Packs (30 Count) including the bonus items:

• Box Weight: Approx. 1.8 lbs (0.8 kg). This includes the heavy glass vitamin dropper and the shaker.
• Box Dimensions: Generally a small to medium rectangular box (approx. 10" x 8" x 5").
• Volumetric Warning: This item is relatively dense, so you don't need to worry much about volumetric weight unless you are buying a massive bulk supply of the lightweight pouches alone.
• Battery Check: No lithium batteries are contained in this product, so there are no extra "dangerous goods" surcharges for air travel.

For a fast arrival, I usually choose DHL international shipping or FedEx international shipping because they handle the French customs paperwork more reliably than standard post.

The BuyForMe solution for tricky US checkouts

The biggest hurdle I faced was the "Credit Card Decline." Some US stores, including health supplement brands and big names like Nike or Sephora, tend to block international credit cards or decline orders tied to known forwarding addresses. My French Visa card was rejected twice when I tried to buy the AG1 subscription directly.

I solved this by using the BuyForMe service. This is a proxy shopping feature where the team at comGateway buys the item on my behalf using a US domestic card. This assisted purchase ensures the order is accepted and processed without the risk of a sudden cancellation. If you are struggling with a store that won't take your payment, this is the safest way to guarantee your order goes through.

Import tax and what to expect at the French border

When you buy from US ship to France, you need to be aware of the import tax. In France, VAT is typically 20% on the value of the goods plus shipping. Because AG1 is a supplement, it usually passes through smoothly, but I always keep my receipts handy just in case customs asks for clarification.

If you have more questions about specific regulations for 2026, the FAQ section on the website is a great help center for understanding package forwarding rules. My experience with France delivery has been very positive as long as I account for these small fees upfront.
