The amount of nicotine pouches in a can can be a determining factor for some users. How many nicotine pouches each user uses in a day differs depending on nicotine tolerance and their activities. Those who use many portions may look for cans that hold more. ZEO has the most nicotine pouches per can, with 25, suiting those who use nicotine pouches often. In comparison, brands like ZYN and VELO hold 15.
Does more portions equal more weight?
The weight of each container depends on the number and weight of the nicotine pouches. Therefore, those with a higher number of heavier portions will weigh more. But will a can with more portions weigh more than one with less?
Not necessarily. More lighter portions will weigh the same as fewer heavier portions.
For example, take ZEO and White Fox above. ZEO has more portions, but White Fox has a heavier can weight because White Fox portions are heavier. In turn, just because there are fewer portions does not mean you are getting less.
VELO and White Fox: two different nicotine pouch sizes and numbers
Out of the brands mentioned, VELO and White Fox have a choice of portion sizes, allowing you to see which best suits you. Interestingly, both brands give more of their smaller-sized pouches, meaning the overall weight of their cans is similar. In turn, if you did want to reduce your portion size, you’re not losing out.
Nicotine pouch cans: price vs weight - is there a correlation?
The final aspect to assess is the price of the brand's nicotine pouch cans. Therefore, the table below contains the average price of a can for each brand and its weight, allowing you to compare them and search for any correlation. See differences between the ZYN price vs other popular brands.

However, it is important to note that just because ZYN is lighter doesn’t mean it offers less, as the experience provided is longer-lasting, the same as VELO, hence the similar price tag.
