Nicotine pouches are growing in popularity and to meet the high demand, the supply and brands have grown rapidly.
When nicotine pouches were a relatively new product from 2015 and a few years forward, the supply of nicotine pouches on the market was limited. There were only a few manufacturers and there was relatively little to choose from.
But the supply has grown rapidly to now offer an endless amount of different nicotine pouches from many different manufacturers in all different flavors and formats.
Nicotine pouches, also known as all-white snus, white snus, tobacco-free snus, or all-white, are an oral nicotine product that can be described as a product development of classic tobacco snus. Nicotine pouches are similar to tobacco snus in many ways and are used in exactly the same way, but the big difference is that nicotine pouches do not contain any tobacco.
Some of the advantages that users experience with nicotine pouches over tobacco snus include:
- Does not discolor teeth
- Available in many different flavors
- Does not contain tobacco
- Perceived as fresher

On! Nicotine pouches come only in mini-format, making them discreetly usable anywhere and anytime without being noticeable. This may be one of the reasons why On! nicotine pouches are especially popular among women, who generally prefer the mini-format to a greater extent than men.
While many manufacturers offer formats, they usually only have a few options in the mini-format in their product line. On!, however, has its entire range in mini-format, providing great choices for those who want a mini pouch. Additionally, it becomes easier to know what you’re getting when you know that On! only manufactures nicotine pouches in mini-format.
On! Recommends their nicotine pouches be used for up to 20 minutes. Although recommendations from all manufacturers vary, the reason for this is due to the portions coming in mini-format. Since mini-format is used, these have a shorter shelf life than slim-format.
