OSCP PEN-200 Discount: How to Save on the Lab and Certification Exam Voucher (2026)

Key takeaways

• Check OffSec's own published plans before paying anyone, since PEN-200 is sold only as a bundle or subscription, not as a standalone course.
• Choose the plan by how many lab days you can genuinely use, because paid lab time you leave idle is the main waste.
• Buy only through OffSec or its listed partners; a voucher offered at a steep discount by a stranger is almost certainly fake.

OSCP is one of the most expensive entry-level security certifications, so it pays to buy carefully. This page explains OffSec's current plans, how partner discounts work, what to check before paying anyone, and how to avoid wasting lab days you've paid for.

How much does OSCP cost in 2026?

OffSec sells PEN-200 (the course behind OSCP) only as part of a bundle or subscription. These are OffSec's published individual prices in US dollars, checked on 1 October 2026; taxes may be added at checkout.

Prices change, so always confirm on the official OffSec pricing page before you compare offers. Learn One also includes extras such as PEN-210 access and a KLCP exam attempt, which matters if you were going to study wireless or Kali fundamentals anyway.

Which plan saves you more money?

The cheaper bundle is only cheaper if you pass first time inside 90 days. Work it out against your own situation:

• Choose the 90-day bundle if you already handle Linux, networking, web basics and some Active Directory, and you can give the lab several hours every day.
• Choose Learn One if you work full-time, are new to penetration testing, or want a second attempt in reserve. A year of access with two attempts usually costs less than buying a bundle and then paying for more lab time and a retake.
• Prepare before you buy. The lab clock starts when access begins. Learning the fundamentals first, on free resources and practice machines, means you spend paid days on PEN-200 itself.

How do OffSec partner discounts work?

OffSec works with authorised training partners worldwide, and WebAsha Technologies is one of them. Partners can sometimes offer a lower price than the public list price, or add their own trainer support, depending on the offer running at the time. Offers change through the year, so there is no fixed discount figure to quote.

1. Decide on the plan (Course + Cert Bundle or Learn One) using the section above.
2. Ask the partner for a written quote in INR or USD that states the exact OffSec plan, lab duration and number of exam attempts.
3. Confirm how the voucher is delivered. A genuine purchase is activated by OffSec on your own OffSec account, under your name.
4. Check what the partner adds, such as live sessions, doubt clearing or lab guidance, and whether that is included in the quote.
5. Get a proper tax invoice, which you'll need for employer reimbursement.

For WebAsha's current price and any running offer, contact the team through the OSCP PEN-200 training page. If you prefer a subscription, our post on the OffSec Learn One subscription offer explains that plan in more detail.

How to avoid fake OSCP vouchers

If a price looks far below every legitimate offer, it is probably a grey-market or stolen voucher. These can be cancelled, and OffSec can revoke access or certifications linked to policy breaches.

• Never buy a "shared" or pre-used OffSec account.
• Don't pay for "exam dumps" or "guaranteed pass" packages. Sharing exam content breaches OffSec's exam rules and can cost you the certification.
• Pay a company you can verify, by a traceable method, with an invoice.

OSCP or OSCP+: what does your money buy?

Passing the PEN-200 exam today gives you both the OSCP and the OSCP+. The OSCP does not expire. The OSCP+ is valid for three years, and keeping it active requires 120 continuing professional education (CPE) credits over that cycle plus OffSec's annual membership or maintenance fee, according to OffSec's CPE and maintenance handbook. Budget for that if your employer or clients ask for the "+" version.

What does the OSCP exam involve?

How to get the most from paid lab time

1. Fix the basics first: Linux command line, Windows administration, TCP/IP, HTTP and a scripting language.
2. Plan your weeks: course modules first, then the lab networks, then timed practice runs.
3. Write notes as you go: a report-ready notebook saves hours on exam day.
4. Practise Active Directory early: it carries 40 points and is where many candidates run out of time.
5. Book the exam with a buffer so a bad day doesn't push you past your access window.

Next step

Write down which plan fits your schedule, then compare a partner quote against OffSec's list price on the same plan. If you're still deciding whether OSCP is the right first certification, read CEH vs OSCP before you spend anything.
