VELO Strength Guide – Dots, mg, and Categories

VELO nicotine pouches use a dot system (1–6 dots) to show nicotine strength. Each dot level translates into a specific mg of nicotine per pouch. This VELO strength guide breaks it down, from 1 dot to 6 dots, to help adult users understand the strength levels available.

All VELO Nicotine Pouches

Dot-by-Dot Breakdown

And now let’s break it down for each strength, or dot, level:

If you’re new to VELO, it’s recommended to start with lower strengths
Experienced users often go for VELO 5 or 6 dot pouches
Casual users might prefer mid-level options (3–4 dots)
