UpGum is sugar-free caffeinated chewing gum made for energy on the go. Choose from four bold flavours, with 60mg or 90mg caffeine per piece depending on the flavour. 10 pieces per tin. No can. No fridge. Just grab, chew and go.
Buy a five-tin pack of one flavour, or start with the combo. Delivery is free in 2026.
Crisp spearmint in the classic green tin.
Sweet, bright watermelon flavour.
A full, round grape flavour.
Our strongest tin: 90 mg, with guarana and taurine.
Why packs of five? A courier costs about the same for one tin as for five, so we only ship in packs. That keeps the price per tin down.
Every regular tin carries the same panel. Double UpGum's panel is on its own page.

UpGum started with a simple question: why could you not buy a proper caffeinated chewing gum in South Africa? We spent months vetting suppliers and testing formulas for taste, texture and a consistent caffeine amount in every piece.
The result is a sugar-free gum in a tin you keep with you, designed and packaged here at home.
