    When you have passed an exam, I recall us receiving an email from CompTIA to confirm a few details before they mail a complimentary certification kit. I just saw this on their website:

    Is the certification kit no longer free? I remember there was a discussion about the wallet cards being discontinued but not about being charged a fee to receive the physical certificate (unless you received one and then would like to order a replacement certificate).

    CompTIA is a for-profit entity now. Printing certs and cards as part of the kit costs money. You can download the PDF and print your own, if you want a hard copy. The cards served no purpose other than bragging rights. An email congratulations is considered the standard in the industry.
