## Qualification

At each event, skaters earned points toward qualification for the Grand Prix Final. Following the sixth event, the top six highest scoring skaters/teams advanced to the Final. The points earned per placement were as follows:
| Placement | Points (Singles) | Points (Pairs/Dance) |
| 1st | 15 | 15 |
| 2nd | 13 | 13 |
| 3rd | 11 | 11 |
| 4th | 9 | 9 |
| 5th | 7 | 7 |
| 6th | 5 | 5 |
| 7th | 4 | – |
| 8th | 3 | – |
| 9th | – | – |
| 10th | – | – |
There were originally seven tie-breakers in cases of a tie in overall points:
* Highest placement at an event. If a skater placed 1st and 3rd, the tiebreaker is the 1st place, and that beats a skater who placed 2nd in both events.
* Highest combined total scores in both events. If a skater earned 200 points at one event and 250 at a second, that skater would win in the second tie-break over a skater who earned 200 points at one event and 150 at another.
* Participated in two events.
* Highest combined scores in the free skating/free dancing portion of both events.
* Highest individual score in the free skating/free dancing portion from one event.
* Highest combined scores in the short program/short dance of both events.
* Highest number of total participants at the events.
However, due to the cancellation of the free skating/dance at Trophée Éric Bompard, the International Skating Union revised the tie-breakers to the following:
* Highest placement at an event. If a skater placed 1st and 3rd, the tiebreaker is the 1st place, and that beats a skater who placed 2nd in both events.
* Highest combined scores in the short program/short dance of both events.
* Participated in two events.
* Highest number of total participants at the events.
If a tie remained, it was considered unbreakable and the tied skaters all advanced to the Grand Prix Final.
