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+

Good survey site

August 21, 2011 by John from United States

I have only been with them a few months. Have already received one $50 check. On my way to another one. I only did 19 surveys to reach 1000 points. I get screened out of about 40% but that's not too bad compared to other sites. Have had no problems. One of my favorites.

money in Hand

July 17, 2011 by April from United States

I have a 50.00 check sitting on my table- I have been paid three times. Plus, I have received items to try out. This company is awesome- yes , the checks take 4-6 weeks to get- but this is not a scam and you do get paid! Awesome Company

Take 20min to Screen-Out

June 26, 2011 by Amy from United States

I tried Global Test Market for about 2 months. While I got a lot of survey invites, I did not qualify for 95% of them. While this in itself may not be bad, answering 20-30 minutes of questions before being notified that I do not qualify is a HUGE waste of my time. Plus, many of the questions asked are far beyond the normal screening questions. I have even gotten all the way through a survey to the demographics questions at the end before being screened out. When I did qualify, the incentives seemed fair, but this was far and few between and I could easily see how my points would expire before I ever made the $50 cash out option. Many of their surveys are for sweepstakes entry only, and these are LONG surveys, I refuse to do any surveys for sweeps unless I have nothing better to do and it will only take a few minutes. I finally left GTM a week ago.

My account is disabled?!

June 13, 2011 by Andy from United States

Have not recieved many invites lately and whats more most were non paying surveys lol so I went into the site today and my account is disabled. I sent them an email. I have been down this road with GTM problems before and I am not planning on getting this resolved but I sure I hope my 50.00 check shows up soon and they somehow compensate me for the other 15.00 I had in points. I will be going to the BBB.

Not a fair company

June 11, 2011 by Jenn from United States

My account was disabled when I had 950 points and was very close to cashing out. Would not recommend.
