I am surprised to hear this story as a Silver Certified MSPA shopper since 2003 myself. I voluntarily registered and took the Silver Certification for $15, but I was not told at any point it was mandatory. My silver certificate has been accepted by every mystery shopping company I registered with, which is about 20 companies, although not all of them give preference to Silver or Gold MSPA Certification. I also work for a mystery shopping company, and I have not been made aware of any issues with our system accepting MSPA certificate #s from shoppers. I have no experience with Gold Certification, but my experience with MSPA has been good.
