Pricing questions
Yes. One Pro subscription gives you full access to Level 1 (all 10 topics), Level 2 (all 10 topic areas), and Level 3 (5 core topics + all 3 specialist pathways). You can switch between levels at any time from your dashboard.
Most prep providers charge separately for each level. We don't.
When you subscribe to Pro, you tell PrepQuest your CFA exam date. The app then calculates the exact number of lessons you need to complete each day to cover all content before your exam, with buffer time for review built in.
You see a daily target on your dashboard: "3 lessons today to stay on track." Hit it, and you know you're ready. Miss it, and the plan adjusts the next day.
This is the feature that directly answers the anxiety every CFA candidate has: am I going to be ready in time?
One price. $19/month or $149/year covers everything: all three levels, all content, all features. No in-app purchases, no level unlocks, no surprise charges.
You keep Pro access until the end of your current billing period. After that, your account automatically switches to the free tier. You keep access to the three free Level 1 topics and all your progress data.
Your account, XP, and progress are never deleted. If you resubscribe later, full access is restored immediately.
There is no time-limited free trial right now, but the free tier is permanent. You can use Level 1 Ethics, Quant, and Economics with no time limit to decide if PrepQuest works for you before upgrading.
Yes. You can switch from monthly to annual at any time from your account settings. Your billing adjusts at the next renewal date. Switching from annual to monthly takes effect when your annual period ends.
Yes. All payments are processed by Stripe, the same payment infrastructure used by Amazon, Google, and Shopify. PrepQuest never sees, stores, or has access to your card number or billing details. Stripe handles everything.
All three levels. One decision.
Start free today, or go Pro when you're ready. Your exam date won't wait.
