What is LifePoints Panel?

LifePoints is an online survey site and community of like-minded people who want to share their views and opinions to earn rewards and influence future decisions made by the big brands we know and see every day.

It’s also the place to go for those who want to collect rewards for living their lives. Every time you go shopping, to the movies, or simply enjoy a new local service, you can collect LifePoints by sharing your views and opinions about these products, services and experiences.

Payment and Rewards

Join to Get Free Points

New members of LifePoints Panel will enjoy 10 free points automatically credited to their accounts upon confirming their email.

Great Rewards Options

In order to request a reward, you must have a minimum of 550 LifePoints ($5) in your account. Once you've reached this balance, you can spend your LifePoints on three main reward options: gift cards, PayPal payments and donations. Note that rewards options may vary between countries.

  • e-Gift cards - With just 550 points, you can request a $5 e-gift card from Amazon, Starbucks, Best Buy, Google Play, Apple Store, Marks & Spencer, Love2Shop, ebay, to gas stations, and more
  • PayPal payments - With 1200 points in your account, request a $10 PayPal payment.
  • Donations - Donate to a great charity with as little as $1 (110 points). Charities include: Red Cross, Special Olympics, Eco Matcher

All rewards are issued within 10 days of request. If requesting a PayPal payment, be sure your PayPal email address is the same as the e-mail address you used to sign up with Lifepoints.

Points Value: 550 Lifepoints = $5.00. Therefore, 10 points = $0.09

Survey Taking Experience

Take Surveys, Earn Points, Get Rewarded

As a LifePoints member, you can contribute your views and opinions by completing online surveys covering various aspects of your daily life. Other activities such as mini-polls, product testing and other types of data collection are also opportunities to earn LPs (LifePoints) to receive exceptional rewards including money and free gift cards.

Survey invitations are sent out by email and can be taken any time during the survey period. Members don’t need any special skills to complete the activities within LifePoints consumer panel. If you can contribute your thoughts and fill out the online survey, then you’re ready to go!

Survey Lengths

Survey lengths vary, however most surveys will take between 10-15 minutes to complete. Compensation awarded for every survey varies, and depends on its length, as well as the client's urgency for survey takers to complete it. The more urgent the assignment, the more points it will offer.

Receiving More Surveys

To ensure you're being invited to the maximum number of surveys, ensure your personal information on file is up to date. Do this by filling out the profile questions available in your account (which will earn you an extra 10 points!). This will help match you to the best possible surveys and will increase the number of market research studies that are most relevant to you and your lifestyle.

Tip! Be sure to add @LifePointsPanel.com to your list of trusted senders, address book or contact list so that survey invites make it to your inbox.

Earn Points for Disqualifications

If you start a survey but don’t get to finish it, LifePoints will reward you with a small number of points as recognition for your time and effort. Point amounts may be 2 or 3 points at a time and can help you reach a cash out sooner. You may earn up to 10 extra LifePoints a day this way, which means you can redeem your earnings for rewards sooner!

Banned after being a member for 6 years +

February 21, 2022 by James from United Kingdom

Been a member since they were Globaltestmarket and now I got banned as well straight after I cashed out a £40 Amazon voucher. I was given the same violated the terms service bla bla generic excuse.

The truth is these survey providers want new people, so they are banning their old members suddenly. The same thing happened to me on another panel as well.

De-Actived My Account

February 17, 2022 by Cheryl from United States

I am told in an email that I violated my terms of agreement. I have been a member since the MySurvey, GlobalTestMarket, was out before it changed to LifePoints. This is awful. I guess they need new members. Sad!

Unfair and unreasonable

February 13, 2022 by Penny from United States

I was a long term member of this site, from when it was called MySurvey. I consistently answered surveys and got rewarded. Recently I decided to wait to redeem, untiI I had enough points for a $50 Amazon reward. After I redeemed but before I received my gift codes I got an email stating my account had been deactivated. When I questioned it, I got this response:

"After reviewing your account history and performing an audit of your membership, we have found evidence that you have violated the LifePoints Reward Point Rules. Therefore, your account has been deactivated and all LifePoints (LPs) have been forfeited."
I questioned it further and got this lovely response:

"Your inquiry was escalated for further review. The Terms and Condition violations have been confirmed and the account(s) will remain closed.

LifePoints reserves the right to terminate any membership suspected of Terms and Condition violations and further forfeit all awards earned from said account.

LifePoints does not reveal how investigations are conducted or the measures taken to investigate memberships. This policy is a precaution to prevent future circumvention of our security measures and/or investigative tactics.

LifePoints always errs on the side of the member, and the evidence must be overwhelming to result in membership termination. The evidence in your case was overwhelming.

Therefore, your membership(s) were terminated and all associated LifePoints (LPs)/awards were forfeited upon membership termination.
The LifePoints Team"

Nice, Huh? No way to defend myself. I don't even know what, if anything, I did wrong! And I'm out $50!
I feel this is one-sided and unfair. Especially since I'd been a member of this panel for over 10 years. Don't waste your time, they can cancel you whenever they feel like it and not even tell you why.
