KEY FEATURES:

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.

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.

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+

I have been with them for months. I did get paid $50 once, after a lot of work (around 100 surveys) it takes a lot of time and effort. Recently I'm trying to get more points and right now I just spent an hour trying to get some. I finished the surveys but at the end it said "sorry you have been screened out" What a waste of time! enough is enough, and their service sucks dont even bother emailing. This is a waste of time, they have stolen my time.

I participated in a 1-week survey for GlobalTestMarket, where I had to send a text whenever I heard/seen anything regarding certain brands. After completing the 1 week survey and final questionnaire, the survey stated that my points would be added immediately.

After a week or so, I still had not received my points. I emailed the support desk (whom I had emailed previously with a similar query). After 3 days of my initial email, I sent another email looking for a response. A further 6 days later, I sent an email stating that it had been 9 days since my initial email with no response, and asking if there was an issue with my query. A further 4 days later, after having still no response, I sent a short email stating "I am extremely disappointed in the lack of response.". 3 days have passed since this email and I have STILL received no response and have not received my 390 points.

This is a survey website I would recommend avoiding. There is nothing worse than spending a long period of time with the expectation of payment (Value of roughly £10), but then not to receive that payment. It has currently been 16 days since my first query looking for these points, and roughly 23 days since actually completing the final questionnaire.

I was recently paid $100 for a focus group with Global Test Market. Last week I also cashed out $75 in Amazon gift cards. They were in my e-mail within a week of my request. They are 100% percent honest. Great company.

Another survey site that kicks you out of surveys after spending and wasting time on them. I was unable to complete one survey. There were not many surveys to begin with and when I finally got one I got screened out after 10 minutes of answering questions. I feel scammed because the site got what they wanted from me and I got nothing for it. There a some other survey sites out there in my experience, are way more worth your time.
eg. opinion outpost is good so far and ipsos-I-say. you may still get kick out of some surveys on these sites but not every single one.

This company seems to be legit. Only after about 2 months I had enough points to redeem for a $50 amazon gift card. I used the gift card and it actually worked. Then after only another month I now have enough point to get another $50 gift card.
