Certified Tester - Application Exam Cost

GBP 1600 (official CREST pricing page, Certified Penetration Testing level covering "Certified Tester - Infrastructure (CCT INF)" and "Certified Tester - Application (CCT APP)"): "* all CREST Certified-level exams are comprised of 2 parts, which need to be booked separately"; prices exclusive of VAT/GST; USD/EUR/AUD/HKD/SGD accepted.

The exam fee is the published figure above. Add your revision time on top of the exam fee. The vendor retake terms vary, so confirm whether a second attempt is charged separately before you budget.

Retake terms for the Certified Tester - Application are set by CREST and are not included in the figure above. Check the official exam page before scheduling, because the waiting period is what usually costs you time, not the fee.

The published price for the Certified Tester - Application does not list a voucher. Discounts usually arrive through employer sponsorship or training budgets rather than from the vendor directly, so check with your employer before paying full price.

No. The exam fee is paid to CREST and covers the exam itself. Certilum is a separate product: 150 practice questions for this certification, tagged to the official domains, with a difficulty score of 2/10.

Practical lab work is essential - candidates should spend at least 60% of preparation time on hands-on labs using platforms like Hack The Box, PortSwigger Web Security Academy, and CREST's own practice environments. Combine this with structured study of the OWASP Testing Guide, web application architecture, and HTTP fundamentals. Join CREST study groups and attempt practice mock tests.
