What is an Exam Voucher?

A CompTIA exam voucher is a unique code that will enable you to take your exam at an authorized CompTia Test Service Provider. Exam vouchers are used similar to a gift card. For example, employers often use vouchers to pay for their employees’ exam or parents may purchase vouchers for their children.
