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 think it all depends on the panelist

September 17, 2010 by Malcolm A from Australia

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!!!

ALOT OF SURVEYS LITTLE REWARD!!!!

September 17, 2010 by Brian from United States

THIS IS A WASTE OF TIME IF YOU WANT TO FILL OUT SURVEYS AND LEARN AFTER FINISHING THE SURVEY THAT YOU ARE DISQUALIFIED!!! (YOU GET 5 POINTS BUT ITS NOT WORTH IT) I AM HAPPY WITH THE QUANTITY OF SURVEYS BUT ITS NOT WORTH THE TIME IF YOU DONT GET THE POINTS YOU EXPECT. THE (((OTX))) SURVEYS ARE BAD THEY HAVE YOU FILL OUT ALL THE INFO JUST TO SAY SURVEY DOWN OR SURVEY CLOSED I HAVE ALSO RECIEVED NUMEROUS JUNK MAIL THAT HAVE COINSIDED WITH MY SURVEY ANSWERS!!!! THANK GOD FOR SURVEY POLICE GOOD LUCK I AM CANCELING NOW!!!!

An ok site

September 17, 2010 by Thomas from United States

This site is good to have in your collection of survey sites. They're one of the few sites that will award points if you don't qualify for a survey. In time it builds up along with whatever ones you do qualify for and complete. It's too bad they sometimes use OTX because they are the worst, prone to errors IF you actually can take one. Do OTX if you got time to throw away.

I qualify for about 25% of their surveys so it takes a little time to reach the 1000 point minimum to cash out. So far they don't offer paypal so you gotta wait for a check which takes about 4 weeks.

Customer service replies in about a day or two to any questions. Overall an ok site, could be better minus OTX.

ISSUE RESOLVED

September 17, 2010 by clem from United States

Whenever I contact customer service, I invariably get an email saying "Issue resolved" and a link to rate my customer service experience long before I get a response from acustomer service rep. I had been happy for the past year that I have work with GTM but the past 2 months have shown a marked decline. Tech problems, survey crashes, brainless/useless, and very slow responses from customer service. Most if not all errors seem to happen when I have completed the surveys. I have had surveys crash on the "Click here to submit your survey" or "These last few questions are for classification purposes only". Even though I may have spent 15 minutes completing a survey, GTM customer service has told me I was screened out of the surveys. They have lost my trust.

This is a great survey company

September 17, 2010 by Frank from Canada

This is my opinion is one of the best survey panels out there...they always pay up...once you reach 1000
points you get $50...how can anyone complain with free $$$...Everytime I go to redeem rewards I always receive a cheque in the mail...they give you points even if you don't qualify for a survey & rarely do you get those crappy sweepstakes entries..this survey company is 100% legit
