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+

Excellent Survey Panel

December 3, 2016 by Maja from Philippines

Global Test Market is one of my favorite online surveys. They paid on time. And consistently send surveys.

I noticed a trend

November 27, 2016 by Kelly from United States

Spent over an hour filling out several surveys only to get "you're not qualified for this survey" AFTER filling out 10-15mins worth of info on each survey? I don't think so. This happened repeatedly over the course of a week.
A lot of these fake sites (I refuse to call them legitimate businesses), use the same tactics, it's obvious when you read reviews for the poorly rated ones. The vultures will do anything to make sure they benefit from you and you get nothing.

Love this site!

November 18, 2016 by Holly from United States

They do different surveys & always have one or more for you to do, plus it doesn't take long to get enough points to cash out & offer a variety of choices for your points. One of my favorites!

Easy Payout!

November 15, 2016 by Janna from Philippines

I am earning for my third payout! On rewards, it took up to 7 days before they can transfer to paypal account. But its all worth it and not bad for an extra cash :)

Unfair business practices

November 8, 2016 by cynthia from United States

After spending countless hours filling out surveys for this site, my account was closed down for a violation of section 6 Good-Faith Participation. I requested specific incidence(s) in which I violated this policy, but was told that "GlobalTestMarket does not reveal how investigations are conducted or the measures taken to investigate accounts."
I did not ask HOW investigations were done. I requested specific incidence(s) of WHAT I did to violate section 6 Good -Faith Participation. After communicating with them 2 times and not receiving an answer as to WHAT I did, I have no recourse other than to leave a not-so-favorable review of this online survey site.
I can only surmise that this site does not believe in open, honest communication with it's members. Not only that, but that it also falsifies information given by the members. I am deeply disappointed that this site has such unfair business practices. If this site deemed there was a problem with any information that I gave on any survey answers, the least it could have done was to make me aware of it.
My best guess, as to why this site didn't make me aware, would be so that it wouldn't have to live up to it's end of the agreement in giving the rewards that it had promised.
In essence, this site hired me for a job and now refuses to pay me after I have already completed the work.
After this incident happened with me, I started to research the reviews on this site. I must say, I should have done that to begin with as the reviews are NOT GOOD and 1 more bad one has just been added to the rest.
