Pricing

One price. Lifetime access.

Certify at the level you need. Every tier is a one-time payment — no subscription, no trials — and each one builds on the last.

🤑

The tiers are cumulative: each includes everything below it, and upgrading only ever pays the difference. Start at Foundation and step up whenever you're ready — you never pay for the same tier twice.

What your money buys — and what it doesn't

Every tier is genuine, complete training and a credential that proves it. It prepares you for the casino audition and maps your licensing — but it is not itself a gaming licence (no online course can be), and we're not affiliated with the WSOP or the TDA. We'd rather you knew that up front. Read the full honesty note →

Pricing questions

The details

How does upgrading work?
You only pay the difference. If you own Foundation ($149) and later want Professional ($349), you pay $200. Move up whenever you're ready — you never pay for a tier twice.
Is this really one-time?
Yes. Every tier is a single payment for lifetime access to that tier's courses and certification. No subscriptions, no renewals, no trials.
What do I get for free before paying?
The entire interactive reference — all 64 sections across every tier — is free to explore, including the 3D clips, the drills and the rulings simulator. You pay only for the certification and the credential.
How does the physical certificate work?
Career-tier ($999) graduates receive a real, printed certificate mailed to them, plus a listing in the PokerDealer dealer directory. You'll provide a mailing address after you complete the tier.
What payment methods do you take?
Card payments are handled securely through Stripe. Your account is created and secured with your Google sign-in.
Can I get a refund?
Because the full reference is free to try before you buy, we ask you to explore it first and make sure it's right for you. Refund terms are shown at checkout.
