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+

On-speculation surveys

September 17, 2010 by Jo from United States

Despite their claims of rewards, the only "reward" I ever received was one or more entries into their drawings which I, of course, never won. I recently cancelled my membership after more than a year; after answering survey after survey I only accrued the 250 points they initially gave me for joining. I consider this a rip-off.

Takes too long to cash out

September 17, 2010 by Jeffrey from United States

I'm sorry, but it's taken me almost 2 years just to get so close to cashing out. Their surveys are designed to disqualify you on ANYTHING, whether it's your income level (or in my case lack thereof), or household status, etc. The times that I do get to participate in a survey, the points awarded are minimal at best. Hence why it's taken me so long to get as far as I have.

Aside from the points, the surveys are interesting to take (when I qualify to participate), and I would wager that some are legitimately put to good use. A word of caution, it will take you forever and a day to cash out at 1000 points.

$50 worth of surveys is needed to cash out. However, when I was ready to cash in my points, they pretended like I had violated the company policy and then they locked me out of my account, refusing to pay me the money they owed. What a waste! -- BEWARE!

Surveys points suck

September 17, 2010 by vicky from United Kingdom

I wasn't sure about this site when I joined up but I perservered for a little while but I have given up. I don't find the surveys very interesting. I dont think they rewards are fair. I prefer UK based survey companies.

April Fools! -- We're not gonna pay you!

September 17, 2010 by Jeffrey from United States

I don't like this company! Just as I got really close to the $50 cash out threshold, all of a sudden, they locked me out of my account and refused to pay me for the completed surveys. It's like a really bad April Fools day joke. All of the time and effort I spent doing surveys was wasted, and I had done some 20 + surveys for free! -- That's what happened to me, and many others according to the feedback! -- BEWARE, and TAKE THIS WARNING SERIOUSLY!
