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+

Keep Your Mouth Shut if you want your $

September 17, 2010 by Lynn from United States

The support team is an offshore contracted company with little command of the English language. If you submit a screenshot of the completion page, they responds "you were screened out", or nothing to do with your request. The corp ofc admits its a problem and knows they have server issues not capturing your completes.

Watch what you say, even if put nicely! If you didn't get paid for a survey and speak up, they may close your account w/o notice, & keep ALL your earned moneys, whether a dollar or hundreds!!!

"You're disrespectful, used obscenities, sent graphic or obscene pictures, and so on --none you did but they use a cut & paste paragraph when they want to threaten you with closure.

This is illegal & fraudulent. The company is unethical, deals in unfair business practices, and misrepresentation.

The parent company is Global Market Insite Inc, located in Bellevue, Washington US.

Used to good but now DONT WASTE YOUR TIME!

September 17, 2010 by Woody from United States

When I first joined GTM, They were good, but it seems lately they ave went down hill. Points would add up fast in the begining. They cut out the 5 points for trying. Also the surveys are now worth less points and they are trying to be slick when it comes to points. Just today I took 2 surveys which I qualified for and when I completed them( about 30 minutes each) it told me to push continue to receive points. When this was done, I didnt get the points and it told me that I have been screened out. A total waste of an hour of my time. This company has went down hill. I just submitted for a $50 check and as soon as I receive it, I will be ending my survey taking relationship with them. DONT WASTE YOUR TIME

Why bother?

September 17, 2010 by Katie from United States

They flood my inbox with survey invitations, but I've never earned any points in the months that I've been a member. This site has been a waste of my time; I'm resigning.

if 1000pts is 10$ and 100pts is 1$...

September 17, 2010 by Rhianna from United States

then.. why would you pay people an average of 5-40pts a survey, thats not even an average of 50cents a survey? I wish I would of known this before I joined and wasted time doing surveys, I have a long way to go before I cash out (theres no way Im quitting before I collect whats mine) and most of the time a survey is closed or I dont qualify and then I get sweepstakes, next to zoompanel (due to technical errors that werent resolved) this is the worst survey site I have encountered.

Don't tell customer service what you really think

September 17, 2010 by Therese from United States

I contacted customer service regarding a problem with a survey. The reply I received did not address my issue or demonstrate understanding of the problem. I tried twice to communicate the problem without success. I clicked on the link provided in the customer service response to rate the result and I marked it unsatisfied and marked neutral in recommending GTM to others. That same day I stopped receiving any surveys from them and haven't received any since even though I previously received several surveys each day. What really gets me is that I was so close to reaching the 1000 points to cash out. Beware of this company.
