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+

They are good and pay well. The recent changes are a step back; no more 5 points if you don't qualify and a lot more sweepstakes entries instead of the previous 5 point offer. I have cashed out twice in 4 months and it takes 6 weeks to receive the check. I get quite a few surveys so I really have no complaints and recommend them.

Previously had no problem reaching payout but now much more difficult, am at 750 points for nearly 6 months (need 1000). Many OTX surveys which I have learned not to waste my time. No longer getting 5 points (25 cents) if not acceptable, also offering sweeps which never did before. I only recommend them because they pay well if you complete a survey but I wish they would lower cashout because much more difficult to reach.

1. You have to read the email they send you, a lot of the surveys are for sweepstakes entries only.

2. They do pay, if they say there is a glitch then there obviously was a glitch. You have to be very pessimistic to believe that every company out there is trying to screw you over.

3. You get 5 cents for every 1 point. When you reach 1000 points you get $50. Not $5 like another person said here. The average payout for a survey is 40 market points, (or $2) $2 is very average for surveys, especially only being 10-20 minutes long.

4. If your account was cancelled or closed it's because GTM is in the business of taking surveys to give those answers to companies. Those companies are paying GTM and YOU to honestly take those surveys so they can create products. If you are blowing through them just to get your money then they aren't getting what they are paying for. Don't be lazy and expect them to pay you.

I have been with Global Test Market for over 3 years now and I have cashed out 2000 market points. I live in Australia and I still got my check, and the good think is that it is paid is US dollars which was about $165.00 Australian dollars. I have already gotten the market points back up to 600 points, I did find that I have to go on there website to participate in the surveys were I used to get the survey invite via my email address. I don't know why? I have tried to ask them, but I am just told if I want more surveys to fill in my profile. I have tried to enplane, but they don't seem to understand? But a good paying survey site!!!

Do not put any trust in this company! They will pay you in the begining but they will get you in the end. I had over 1800 points when they deciced to close my account saying that i was giving fraudulant answers.
