What is LifePoints Panel?

LifePoints is an online survey site and community of like-minded people who want to share their views and opinions to earn rewards and influence future decisions made by the big brands we know and see every day.

It’s also the place to go for those who want to collect rewards for living their lives. Every time you go shopping, to the movies, or simply enjoy a new local service, you can collect LifePoints by sharing your views and opinions about these products, services and experiences.

Join to Get Free Points

New members of LifePoints Panel will enjoy 10 free points automatically credited to their accounts upon confirming their email.

Great Rewards Options

In order to request a reward, you must have a minimum of 550 LifePoints ($5) in your account. Once you've reached this balance, you can spend your LifePoints on three main reward options: gift cards, PayPal payments and donations. Note that rewards options may vary between countries.

  • e-Gift cards - With just 550 points, you can request a $5 e-gift card from Amazon, Starbucks, Best Buy, Google Play, Apple Store, Marks & Spencer, Love2Shop, ebay, to gas stations, and more
  • PayPal payments - With 1200 points in your account, request a $10 PayPal payment.
  • Donations - Donate to a great charity with as little as $1 (110 points). Charities include: Red Cross, Special Olympics, Eco Matcher

All rewards are issued within 10 days of request. If requesting a PayPal payment, be sure your PayPal email address is the same as the e-mail address you used to sign up with Lifepoints.

Points Value: 550 Lifepoints = $5.00. Therefore, 10 points = $0.09

Survey Taking Experience

Take Surveys, Earn Points, Get Rewarded

As a LifePoints member, you can contribute your views and opinions by completing online surveys covering various aspects of your daily life. Other activities such as mini-polls, product testing and other types of data collection are also opportunities to earn LPs (LifePoints) to receive exceptional rewards including money and free gift cards.

Survey invitations are sent out by email and can be taken any time during the survey period. Members don’t need any special skills to complete the activities within LifePoints consumer panel. If you can contribute your thoughts and fill out the online survey, then you’re ready to go!

Survey Lengths

Survey lengths vary, however most surveys will take between 10-15 minutes to complete. Compensation awarded for every survey varies, and depends on its length, as well as the client's urgency for survey takers to complete it. The more urgent the assignment, the more points it will offer.

Receiving More Surveys

To ensure you're being invited to the maximum number of surveys, ensure your personal information on file is up to date. Do this by filling out the profile questions available in your account (which will earn you an extra 10 points!). This will help match you to the best possible surveys and will increase the number of market research studies that are most relevant to you and your lifestyle.

Tip! Be sure to add @LifePointsPanel.com to your list of trusted senders, address book or contact list so that survey invites make it to your inbox.

Earn Points for Disqualifications

If you start a survey but don’t get to finish it, LifePoints will reward you with a small number of points as recognition for your time and effort. Point amounts may be 2 or 3 points at a time and can help you reach a cash out sooner. You may earn up to 10 extra LifePoints a day this way, which means you can redeem your earnings for rewards sooner!

Not impressed after conversion

May 21, 2019 by Shelley from United States

I see that I am not the only one having problems since the conversion. The first problem is I was a member of BOTH Mysurvey and Globaltestmarket and used to take surveys on both and redeem from both. So now it is down to just this panel. Since the conversion I have taken a couple of surveys and redeemed $5. But since last weekend, there is no record of any surveys I have taken nor a record of 2 completed surveys with no points rewarded. If I do not get a response and some service in the next few days, I will be reporting them to the Better Business Bureau. I have done that with another panel that is now defunct and won't hesitate to do it again.

Well, as of today (5/20) I finally got a response from their website. They claimed my e-mail is not shown as registered with their site! How convenient, especially when I had over 1,000 points and was close to getting another Paypal payout. When a survey site is bought, the company is the winner and the consumer is the loser. Sign up at your own risk, but you've been warned.

missing 1000+ points

May 6, 2019 by sharon from United States

on May 1, I went to post my purchases from April 30 in April purchase diary and finish the diary. The diary was no longer on my dashboard. I was given the problem will be "escalated", but I don't expect to receive my points. I haven't received the points for the last Telco surveys either. The purchase diaries and the telco surveys WERE guaranteed points, but I guess no more.

Hi Sharon,

We apologise for the issues that you are experiencing with your LifePoints account and hope to rectify these as soon as possible.

Since LifePoints awarded for the Telco Survey are done manually, these should have been assigned to your account two weeks after participation: https://lifepoints.zendesk.com/hc/en-gb/articles/360028660991-Completed-the-Telco-Survey-but-have-not-received-my-LifePoints-why-

However, if this hasn't yet happened and you are still experiencing issues with your LifePoints account, please open a new ticket with our Help Center here - https://lifepoints.zendesk.com/hc/en-gb/requests/new - quoting 'SITEREVIEW'- so that we can escalate your ticket with our customer service team.

We hope that we can welcome you back to the LifePoints Community soon.

Kind regards,
Ben
No complaints

May 5, 2019 by Edward from United States

I have been with Life Points since they were Global. I have no problems at all. I read all the negative comments, and don't understand. I get plenty of survey offers and have completed quite a few. Nice point offers for longer surveys. They have been quick to contact me when I have questions. I enjoy the site.

Skip this Site

May 3, 2019 by Doug from United States

Years ago this was a great site when it was called Global Test Market, then they changed, how much they paid and couple years ago and greatly reduced the points you get for completing a survey, while charging more points to cash out, then the final nail was when they changed to Lifepoints, now it's a complete waste of time, you get paid almost nothing, then if you decide to do a survey, odds are you will get cheated out of the incentive or the survey will glitch and you don't get paid.
