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+

Gave up on this site

June 1, 2018 by Laurie from United States

I gave up on this site after I repeatedly completed entire surveys and then got to the end and it would say “error”and I would receive 0 points. So frustrating! I reported it to customer service several times with specific survey numbers and heard nothing. Not worth the frustration!

Not Very Transparent

May 29, 2018 by Bill from United States

They changed their pay out scheme so its transparent and easier to cash out. One needs 1200 pts to cash out $10 from PayPal. Easy to take surveys, but hard to complete, but you can take as many as you like in a day, just dont expect to complete many. I have made over 2400 pts in one day to cash out $20 but not very often. Takes me a week or more, usually, to accumulate that many pts. Its a good site, they give decent pts for survey length or difficulty and are partners with My Survey and Isay, so you get theirs, too and dont really need to be on their sites

From good to terrible!

May 24, 2018 by ginny from United States

Used to be a really good site up until about 8 months ago. Now they give very low points for longer surveys, and just when you complete the survey, it says that it is full. When you contact them, it takes about a week to respond, and all they say is "the survey needed no more responses". Really? They can't state that before you do the 30 minute survey? It has happened 8 times in 3 weeks. I have been a member for 7 years, but I am cashing out and moving on.

lifepoints

May 18, 2018 by Beth from United States

After many requests to find my lifepoints with this Company (Been taking surveys for years and have been paid by them;I had to change my e-mail address. I did and notified them but mistakenly re registered. Due to that error all lifepoints were taken away and i could not find out how many i had as i "had too many accounts. I have had 3 new e-mail addresses since 2000. But the kicker was they answered a ticket dated Oct 2017??!!. So now I am out lifepoints and their surveys. I thought they were a great company but customer service is lacking. Thank you for letting me write a review.
