You must prepare to take your certification exam as you reach this part. But wait! Do you have the funds to schedule your Salesforce Certification Exam?

We know that it can be pretty expensive, which is usually why many people back down and lose their spirits before they even begin working as a Salesforce Professional.

But here is the catch! You can earn your credential for way less than the original price.

How? Well, Salesforce offers a lot of ways to get a discount. Most of these methods will help you in finding a Salesforce Certification Coupon.

This blog will help you find and redeem these Salesforce Certification Vouchers. But first, let’s understand what these vouchers are.

What is a Salesforce Certification Voucher?

A voucher is a coupon code that you can use to redeem discounts. The Salesforce Certification Cost starts from $75 and goes up to $6000. The average cost is around $200, which is still relatively high, especially in different currencies.

To reduce this cost and make Salesforce credentials easily accessible for people, Salesforce offers vouchers that can be used to get a discount on these certification amounts.

Various methods can lead you to these discount vouchers and save you a lot of money. Let’s examine these methods and learn how to redeem a voucher discount.

Where to Find Salesforce Certification Vouchers?

From trailblazing to attending events, you will find many ways to forfeit salesforce vouchers if you go out for a hunt. We have discussed these methods in detail to make your Salesforce journey easier.

1. Attend Events and Win Big Discounts

The best and easiest way to find certification vouchers is to attend various Salesforce Events. These events usually end in providing offers and vouchers to attendees or the winners of the competition that they organize.

  1. Trailblazer Community Group Events: Many local Community Groups occasionally offer Salesforce certification coupons by organizing giveaways. This can be a great opportunity if you have been a part of a community religiously. Remember that communities are not entitled to provide you with coupons, but sometimes they happen to have some. If coupons are available, they are done randomly and at Salesforce’s discretion.
  2. Salesforce Events: Salesforce events such as Dreamforce often have services that offer Salesforce Certification Vouchers as prizes to in-person attendees. So, if you attend any such event, look out for coupons!
  3. Community Events: Various communities regularly organize events and hackathons besides the Salesforce Community on Trailblazer. These hackathons generally have a prize for the winners, and many offer Salesforce Certifications. Do not hesitate to participate in these competitions and give your best; the award will save you on your certification cost.

2. Salesforce Certification Days

Salesforce often organizes these free, half-day webinars led by expert Salesforce instructors. These sessions are called the Salesforce Certification Days. The webinars are valuable as the experts share insights about the exams.

They cover the main objectives of the exam, focusing on the most weighted areas. Every participant of the Certification Day receives a code for a $140 discount off any $200 exam. You can use this discount on any certification you plan to take if it costs $200.

3. Trailblazer Quests

Trailblazer Quests are the small missions on the Trailblazer website during your journey. Keep an eye on the latest Trailhead Quests, as there will often be at least one quest where you could win a Salesforce certification coupon. Monthly quests are updated, so you may always try again the following month if you fail this time!

4. Salesforce Partner Benefits

Salesforce partners can receive voucher codes based on their program and tier. In FY24, they can receive the highest voucher code amount based on tiers they have achieved across all tracks in which they are enrolled.

For example, suppose someone is a Summit AppExchange partner and a Ridge Cloud Reseller partner. In that case, they are eligible for 20 voucher codes. This method is helpful if you already work for someone or know a Salesforce partner. You can request that your company help you with your certification discount code.

So that was all about the vouchers and where you can find them. Now, let’s see how you can redeem these vouchers.
