Our verdict
MyCPR NOW is a low-cost online CPR certificate option for people who want the exam fee covered in the entry price and can study on their own schedule. Renewal lands quickly, though: the certificate runs on a 1-year cycle before you pay again, and support runs on email and help centre only.

Pros and cons
Pros
- The exam fee is included, which matches every provider tracked in this category at 100% and removes a second bill.
- Entry at €30.95 comes in under the category median of €21.92.
- Study is online only, so the cpr certificate fits around work and travel with no classroom day to schedule.
- Renewal is set out on a 1-year cycle, so the repeat cost is easy to plan for.
Cons
- There is no practicum, so nobody watches your compressions and rescue breaths in person before the card arrives.
- Support runs on email and help centre only, with no phone line or live chat listed for questions mid-course.
- Renewal returns on a 1-year cycle, so the €30.95 entry fee is not the whole cost over a few years.
- At €30.95 the entry figure sits above the lowest alternative listed here, National CPR Foundation at $12.95, though the currencies differ.

Scored 9.0 / 10 by AcademyCue.
Who it suits
- People who want a CPR card without a classroom day, since delivery is online.
- Learners who budget the repeat payment up front, because the certificate runs on a 1-year cycle.
- US-based buyers, since the provider operates from US and the card is written for that system.
Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone who needs a supervised skills session with a trainer watching compressions, since the practicum is listed as no. Check ACLS Now, listed at $14.95, as the next comparison to make.
- Buyers who want to phone a tutor, because support runs on email and help centre only. National CPR Foundation, listed at $12.95, is the alternative to weigh if the entry figure matters more to you than the renewal cycle.
What it does well
Study is entirely online, and that is the only delivery mode listed, so there is no classroom component to schedule around and no travel to book. The course is a cpr certification aimed at people who already know the theory and simply need the card. The exam fee is included in the price you pay, which removes the second invoice most learners budget for later. The trade-off sits on the same page. The practicum is listed as no, so nobody watches your compressions on a manikin before you pass. For a short refresher that is a fair bargain; for roles that demand a verified practical assessment, it is not enough. Courses in this category cluster at 4 hours, which frames what a card like this normally takes to work through. Renewal is the other line to plan. The certificate runs on a 1-year cycle, so a CPR credential bought here comes back around sooner than the longer cycles many employers accept. Set the reminder at signup and treat the repeat payment as part of the real cost rather than a surprise.
Who runs it
The provider is MyCPR NOW LLC, a company operating from US. That base matters for a CPR card, because the course is written for United States practice and the certificate is aimed at an American employer, club or licensing board. Anyone outside the country should confirm acceptance before paying a €30.95 entry fee. Support is the thinner part of the setup. Contact runs through email and help centre, so questions travel by email or into the help centre instead of reaching a person on the phone. For a course that needs no tutor time, that arrangement is workable and keeps the fee low. If you would rather talk something through while you study, expect to wait for a written answer. The named operator is clear enough to check, and the delivery is online from a single market, so there is no network of trainers to coordinate. Read the terms before you buy if the certificate has to satisfy a specific board.

Frequently asked questions
How much does the MyCPR NOW CPR certificate cost?+
The listed entry price is €30.95 for the CPR certification, and the exam fee is already inside it. That figure sits under the median entry price of €21.92 across this category, so treat it as the full starting cost rather than a deposit.
Is the exam fee included or charged separately?+
It is included. The exam fee comes with the course price, which is the norm here, since every provider tracked in this category lists it as included at 100%. Budget €30.95 as the whole entry cost rather than adding an exam line later.
How long is the certificate valid before I have to renew?+
The certificate is set on a 1-year cycle, so renewal is a near-term cost rather than a distant one. If you are the sort of learner who signs up once and forgets, put the renewal date in your calendar now, because a lapsed card becomes a problem the moment an employer or club asks for it.
Is the course fully online?+
Delivery is online, and that is the only mode listed, so there is no classroom session to attend and no travel to book. Every provider in this category on the site is also online-first at 100%, so a fully remote format is normal in this field.
Does the course include a supervised skills session?+
The practicum is listed as no, so there is no session where a trainer watches your compressions and rescue breaths. That is the trade-off for the €30.95 price and the online format. If your role needs a verified practical assessment, look for a course that runs one.
How do I get help if I get stuck mid-course?+
Support runs on email and help centre, so email and the help centre are the routes in. No phone number or live chat is listed, which means a question waits in a queue rather than being answered during a study session. Help centres are the most common route on the site at 71.9%, so this is a normal pattern.
Who runs MyCPR NOW and where is it based?+
The provider is MyCPR NOW LLC, operating from US. A US base matters when the card has to be accepted by an American employer, sports league or licensing board, since the certificate is written for that system. Anyone buying from another country should confirm acceptance before paying.
How does the price compare with the other CPR options?+
National CPR Foundation lists $12.95, ACLS Now lists $14.95 and American BLS lists $14.95, against €30.95 here. The figures are quoted in different currencies, so convert them in your own before choosing, and check what each entry fee already includes.
How long are courses like this usually?+
Courses in this category cluster at 4 hours, with the range running from 3 hours to 4 hours. That is a short block of study, which suits an online card but leaves little room for supervised practice time.
