Beginning early 2019, Lightspeed shut down GlobalTestMarket in some countries, and merged those members into LifePoints. As of June, 2019, GlobalTestMarket panels and members worldwide were fully integrated into LifePoints.

Founded in 1999, Global Test Market is an online survey panel owned by Lightspeed Research, a Kantar groups company. Global Test Market is one of the world’s leading providers of market research and serves clients in more than 60 countries worldwide.

They rewarded their panelists more than $30 million+ USD in 2016 alone! As a panelist, you can earn points for completing surveys that can be redeemed for reward items from over 200 partners, redeem your points for cash via PayPal, or donate your points to charity.

Unfortunately, GlobalTestMarket is no longer operational. Click the button to discover survey panels that are running and are actively looking for new members!

Payment and Rewards

Registration Process

Registering is easy, simple and free. Click the registration link where you will be asked simple questions about you and your household. The results are used to determine which surveys you are a good fit for.

Rewards Information

Each survey takes on average 15 minutes to complete and reward amounts depend on the survey length and urgency.

If you are screened out of surveys, you may be entered into a quarterly sweepstakes competition. For each sweepstakes entry you earn, you will be automatically entered into the drawing and if you are a winner, you will be notified via email. Remember to respond before the deadline provided to claim your prize.

LifePoints

For each survey completed, you will receive LifePoints, which you can accumulate to redeem cash and prizes. Each email invitation will alert you to how many LifePoints you will receive for taking the survey. LifePoints expire 3 years after being awarded the points, or after 12 months if there is no activity on the account.

On April 17, 2017, MarketPoints were discontinued and replaced by these new 'LifePoints' at a 1 for 5 conversion rate. Collected points can be redeemed for many different reward options, which may vary, depending on your country of residence. Rewards can be redeemed once you have accumulated 1,100 LifePoints ($10) in your account. Note that if you have a friend that was grandfathered in from the old Points program, they will be offered slightly different points than those who joined GlobalTestMarket after April 2017.

Community Features

Types of Surveys Offered

Many of GlobalTestMarket’s surveys ask your opinion on movies, restaurant, automobiles, consumer products, current events, and a variety of other interesting and fun topics. You can also download the LifePoints app onto your phone so you can take surveys on your mobile.

Points Expectations

You can expect to earn between 35-250 LifePoints based on the level of complexity or urgency of the survey. Even if you do not qualify for the survey, you may still receive 5 LifePoints..

Option to Give Back

In addition to the great selection of rewards, Global Test Market gives you the option to give back to your community! Unicef charity donations can be redeemed with collected LifePoints.

Refer Your Friends!

You can refer your friends by entering their email when you are signed into your account. If they fill out at least 2 surveys, you also earn points.

Rewards Processing Time

Rewards usually take about 4-6 weeks to arrive if you are in the United States and 6-8 weeks for international panel members.

Eligibility: Residents worldwide, age 14+

Not as Good as Before

September 17, 2010 by Lea from United States

Previously had no problem reaching payout but now much more difficult, am at 750 points for nearly 6 months (need 1000). Many OTX surveys which I have learned not to waste my time. No longer getting 5 points (25 cents) if not acceptable, also offering sweeps which never did before. I only recommend them because they pay well if you complete a survey but I wish they would lower cashout because much more difficult to reach.

Why so many bad reviews?

September 17, 2010 by Mikki from United States

1. You have to read the email they send you, a lot of the surveys are for sweepstakes entries only.

2. They do pay, if they say there is a glitch then there obviously was a glitch. You have to be very pessimistic to believe that every company out there is trying to screw you over.

3. You get 5 cents for every 1 point. When you reach 1000 points you get $50. Not $5 like another person said here. The average payout for a survey is 40 market points, (or $2) $2 is very average for surveys, especially only being 10-20 minutes long.

4. If your account was cancelled or closed it's because GTM is in the business of taking surveys to give those answers to companies. Those companies are paying GTM and YOU to honestly take those surveys so they can create products. If you are blowing through them just to get your money then they aren't getting what they are paying for. Don't be lazy and expect them to pay you.

Great Company! - Join them!

September 17, 2010 by Rick from United States

Well, I'm not sure what some of the people have done to get locked out, or not get their money. I have been with them just over a year, and have cashed in $250. Not once did I have a problem with payment. When I asked for it, they sent it. Yes they are a little slow, but I knew they would send it. So give them a try, and don't blow through the questions, and answer them like you said you would when you first signed up. Honestly and professionally... you'll get paid how you answer... put slop in, you get slop out.

The Best Of The Best

I been with this company maybe more then 3 years, i was receiving so many surveys every week and i wasn't rushing finishing the survey. I was really being honest and truthful with them and they were honest with me. If there was 100 companies like this one i would join every single one of them.Since i joined this company i have earned $504.60 i received my check within a month i think.
