2. How do I purchase a certification without a credit card?

PayPal does not require a credit card and accepts bank accounts for direct debit.

Another option is to mail a US dollar check for $9.95 to:

Thycotic Software Ltd
3450 39th Street NW #689
Washington
DC 20016

Please include your email address on the check and we will add the typing test credit to your account.
 
 
3. What does a certification look like?

A certification is a document (Adobe PDF) that can be printed and contains all the test result information. It also contains the mytypingtest.com seal and a clickable URL if the test result has been shared.

You can see an example here.
 
 
4. Can I take a demo test?

Yes. You can take a demo from the My Account page once you SignUp.
 
 
5. Can my company use mytypingtest.com?

Yes. Simply sign up and then buy credits whenever you have candidates to test. Credits can be purchased in advance or when required. Credits do not expire.
 
 
6. Why do you use PayPal?

PayPal is a verified trusted online payment system. It is an affordable solution that helps to lower the cost of certification to our customers.

It is also the preferred mechanism of payment by other large online vendors such as Ebay.
 
 
7. How do you determine the difficulty rating for a particular typing text?

We look at various factors including word length, punctuation and the words used in the text in our formula to produce a numeric rating of the difficulty level.
 
 
8. Do I always get the same typing text for a test?

Demo tests always use the same typing text.

Paid certification tests use a randomized text that has been systematically analyzed and rated for its typing difficulty.
