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+

Awful experience

December 30, 2018 by Ladan from Canada

Hello,
Since September, I have had problems with taking surveys, I do receive survey invitations but they don't work for me. Before that, I regularly participated and didn't have any issue. And recently, I left a message for the customer service and didn't answer me.

Terrible

All most half surveys are showing a error or down for maintenance they really need to improve their site

Interesting Surveys & Module, Payout Reasonable, Friendly Customer Service

November 18, 2018 by Lorraine from United States

I first joined GlobalTestMarket in 2011, their surveys are very interesting, although sometimes very long, you tend not to notice due to the lucrative point system, interesting topics, and pay-out system. They tend to send numerous surveys, that keep their panel members busy. When re-directed to another survey, you sometimes experience slow transitions, and/or error messages. They are very helpful in resolving these issues so that your time is not wasted. Although many panel members have unpleasant experiences, my experience with this survey company has been pleasant, professional, and positively consistent. My opinion is, if a survey company appreciates your time, resolves the situation, keep the relationship with them. If not, move on to another company. There are so many survey website offers, time is valuable. There are so many survey sites, if it does not fit, move forward. Follow guidelines, and make sure you are paid for your time, once a survey is completed. I recently re-activated my account, and GlobalTestMarket was forthcoming in reactivating my account, and sent numerous survey invitations. I would recommend this survey website. I have not had any negative issues with this company.

Going downhill fast

November 8, 2018 by Steve from United States

I've been a user of GTM and MySurvey.com for many years, and they both have become almost unusable lately. I'll spend maybe 20 minutes finishing a survey, only to get a "I'm sorry, it looks like you've already taken this survey" message. This has happened repeatedly, especially in the last year. IF they respond to your inquiry, it's a canned response that IT prepares that often doesn't even address the problem. Like the idiotic suggestion to empty your cache and try again. I'm about ready to drop them.

Update: Same story again today (11/7). I have four open cases going back three months. Their tech support must be nonexistent.

No longer can sign into my account

October 24, 2018 by Mike from United States

Please take heed to my advice & do not join Global Test Market. I did 10 surveys a day to finally be able to get a paypal payout & all of a sudden I can't enter my account anymore. There is nothing more infuriating than being used, doing surveys for a payout & when its time to get paid you get nothing. Save yourself and your mental health from this website.
