Cash-in rules

BTEC Tech Awards (from Sept 2022)

UK centres (Project qualifications)

To request certification for a candidate who has already completed their qualification, outside of the series entry deadlines, you will need to add a cash-in code. 

This code ties all the units together to produce an overall result. Without a cash-in code, a result or certificate cannot be given; however, only enter a cash-in code once all units have been entered. 

We will charge £4.30 for late requests for a subject award (cash-in) received after the entry deadline. We will charge £46 for late requests made after the deadline for Review of Marking and Moderation.

To make a late cash-in request, please contact us.

For further information, please see our qualification fees website page.

Cash-in rules

• Only enter a cash-in code once the correct number of units have been entered to be eligible for the overall award. Entering a cash-in code without the correct number of units will cause the candidate to be ineligible.
• Do not enter the full A level cash-in code if the AS units have not been completed.
• Do not enter a cash-in code with no relevant units.
• If a candidate is resitting a unit, you must enter the relevant cash-in code, providing all units have been completed altogether.
