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+

its all good

May 14, 2012 by miguel from Dominican Republic

may not be the best but they are reasonable and i have gotten about $200.00 so far...

Quality declining?

May 14, 2012 by Stephanie from Canada

I have been with this survey company for several years. At first it seemed good. I got regular surveys with reasonable rewards and was able to cash in points easily. Recently, it's harder to accumulate points. Many surveys offer only a prize draw entry. Even worse, I just completed a survey taking 15-20 minutes and then at the end was "screened out" so they got my opinion for free! Others have complained about this. I sent a complaint to Customer Service and -like some other commenters- received a "non-response" saying there records showed I had screened out. As if I didn't know that. I've now complained about the non-responsive reply and will see what happens. If this continues I will discontinue my membership.

A total Rip off

April 11, 2012 by Sandra from United States

I have been fighting this company since December 2010. I earned 1000 points and had appllied for my $50 check. I have updated my account(which didn't need it) and still nothing. Now they say 2 cks. have been sent .. this is a lie. And I can prove it. This use to be a good company, not any more.

One of the Worst Ever

April 11, 2012 by Tony from United States

I am on the verge of quitting this company. They are one of the worst I have ever registered with. First of all they have Personal Profile questions that are supposed to help you get more surveys. In one they did not provide enough choices so I emailed to tell them this was why I could not honestly complete the Personal Profile survey or the survey about vehicles, as I am a nondriver. I got this answer back that made it seem they do not read comments. The person just said "our records show your survey is not complete" -- I mean, DUH -- it is not complete because I do not like to LIE to get to the next page in a survey. I do understand that most survey companies out there today are inferior and their designers need to go to survey-creating schools -- but they should also WELCOME feedback and READ the comments and complaints and try to make better surveys without sending some kind of form letter or some other kind of remark that does not relate to the sender's comment.

Only recommended because they offer checks as incentives not junk like paypal. Otherwise poor

April 11, 2012 by Annie from United States

It takes a long time to earn enough to cash out, the check was promised 4-6 weeks, JUST barely made it by the 6 week mark and it came from CANADA yet there out of the US? Not that that really matters I got my hard earned money! Talking to there customer support about ANYTHING is USELESS. I swear I talked to some who didn't speak English, one issue a survey from September of 2011 that appears as available in my account when its closed, I contacted them at LEAST 5 TIMES, till someone finally addressed my issue and when they addressed it could not help me with it at all something about when they close the survey, um okay the survey says its closed. I pretty much think its worthless to contact CS. Today I had issues with CS again, I have a survey that pops up as available but gives me an error message when I try and take it, they told me to basically do everything I tried in a response and sent me a survey on how customer support handled it 2 hours before I even got a reply!
