Cost of Compliance Testing
The fee for compliance testing is not determined by the WPC. The Authorized Test Labs set their own fees. Members can choose between 11 Authorized Test Labs in all regions of the world.

Compliance testing is not necessary when certifying a product that contains a Qi Certified subsystem.
Cost of Interoperability Testing
The cost of interoperability testing depends on the size of the testbed. The size of the testbed varies. The cost is $1,537 when the testbed contains, for example, 148 products. The testbed is the collection of samples that each new product is tested against to make sure the new product is interoperable with products that have been certified before.
