What the fee covers
Knowing the boundary of the price stops the surprise costs later.
| Item | Included in the exam fee |
|---|---|
| The exam session | Yes, including the 90-minute session |
| Exam retake | Depends on the vendor policy, check before booking |
| Discount voucher | Not listed in the published price |

The exam fee buys you one attempt at the Advanced Certified ScrumMaster (A-CSM). Everything else on your path to certification, revision material included, sits outside this price, and that is where most of the budget of a certification actually goes.
Note from the vendor record: Still offered (not retired, checked Sep 2026). No exam: requires an active/expired CSM, an approved 16+ hour A-CSM course with pre/post work, and 12 months of Scrum Master experience within the last 5 years before the license is granted. Renewal 30 SEUs + USD 175 every 2 years. Never state an exam price.
