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+

I really like this panel

February 20, 2014 by amy from United States

I am really surprised it is ranked so low. I have been with then 2 months now and cashed out $50 in Amazon gcs and I just cashed out for the $45 PayPal option. The only downside to this site is you have to wait to get 1000 points to cash out. I don't mind that though. They send me at least 5 invitations a day and I usually pick the highest paying one and I do about one a day most days. I qualify maybe 50% of the time but they usually will tell you pretty quick if you DQ. OP is better but this is my 2nd favorite.

Very Best Site

February 17, 2014 by Kumaran from India

I had received two checks from Global Test Market. One for $50 and other for $100. Now I am awaiting the other one within months.

I would proudly recommend others to join this site.

Even if we didn't qualify for a particular survey they give us 5 points, where other surveys didn't do.

positive experience

February 7, 2014 by Jenny from United States

I have been able to cash in for $45 a month for the last 4 months. I think I have a 30% rate of being approved for surveys. Paypal deposit happens in 10 days.

I've only been doing online surveys for a couple of months. Since Nov 2012. It is Feb 2 now. I've made $45 since signing up and I'm almost at the threshold again which will bring the total to $90. They send out a lot of invites, but you screen out a lot too. Nice things are that the site has very few glitches. I echo what someone else said about the customer service folks not really "getting it" when you ask for help but since the site runs so smoothly that there is rarely any need to contact customer service, well then that really isn't a problem. They pay the $ into my pay pal account and I've had no problems getting the $$ on time. My only complaint is that the # of screen outs are high. But each screenout only takes a couple of minutes. This site has very little instances of those ones where you go on for 10-15 minutes THEN get screened out after entering tons of data. ARRRRgggghhh! All in all, this is a good site. Better than most.

Where's the Money?

February 1, 2014 by Priyanka from India

I have been using Global Test Market since 2009. All this while my experience had been wonderful, because all my encashment cheques use to reach me on time. But I cant figure out whats wrong lately? On my recent redemption in Dec 2013, the company suddenly announces that the money will be send directly to my bank account. Ive received no money yet and none of my queries have been answered by the site. Any suggestions, anyone?
