Discounted Exam Vouchers in India (2026): PTE, TOEFL, Duolingo, GRE & GMAT
English tests and graduate admission tests are one of the biggest costs before you even apply abroad. If you plan to take the PTE Academic, TOEFL iBT, Duolingo English Test, GRE or GMAT, you can often pay less than the full listed fee by using a discounted exam voucher. This guide explains what a voucher is, what the tests cost in 2026, how to redeem a voucher step by step, and the rules to check before you buy.
What is an exam voucher?
An exam voucher is a prepaid code issued by the test owner (Pearson, ETS, Duolingo or GMAC) or one of its authorised partners. Instead of paying the full fee by card when you book, you enter the voucher code on the official booking site and the test fee is covered. Because partners buy vouchers in bulk, they can pass on a lower price to students.
You still book your own test date, centre (or at-home slot) and score recipients on the official website. The voucher only changes how you pay.
Exams we offer discounted vouchers for
- PTE Academic (Pearson): accepted for study and migration in Australia, New Zealand, the UK, Canada and many US universities.
- TOEFL iBT (ETS): widely accepted by universities in the USA, Canada and Europe.
- Duolingo English Test: an online, at-home test accepted by thousands of institutions.
- GRE General Test (ETS): for master's and PhD admissions, mainly in the USA.
- GMAT Focus Edition (GMAC): for MBA and business master's programmes.
We do not offer IELTS vouchers at the moment.

Rules to check before you buy
- Each voucher is exam-specific. A PTE voucher cannot be used for TOEFL, and a GRE voucher cannot be used for GMAT.
- Vouchers expire. Check the expiry date and book your test before it.
- Location matters. Vouchers are usually valid for tests booked in India.
- No refund once the code is sent. Buy only when you are sure about the exam.
- Rescheduling and cancellation follow the exam owner's own rules and fees.
- Keep your code private. Anyone who has the code can use it.
How to avoid voucher scams
Cheap codes sold on social media and messaging groups are a common trap. Some are already used, expired, stolen or for a different country, and the test owner can cancel a booking made with an invalid code. Buy only from a registered business that gives you a receipt, a working office address and support if the code fails. Our vouchers are bought through official channels, and you can always visit us in Hyderabad.
Does a voucher include coaching?
No. A voucher covers only the test fee. If you also want help to reach your target score, see our coaching for PTE, TOEFL, the Duolingo English Test and GRE and GMAT. Many students take coaching and a discounted voucher together.
