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

lifepoints surveys

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!

My points taken

July 18, 2023 by virginia from United States

This was a great site until they decided to kick me and lots of other panelists off their site.....I have been very faithfully doing diaries and surveys for them for a long time until they decided to rob my points (money)....For no reason they have locked me and many many others from their site....I guess they wanted to use other fools for their surveys....
then they will kick them out for no reason at all...If you want to lose the points for no reason, join this phony site and take your chances so they can make money and take yours....Worst thing that has happened to me on any of these sites.....Join a reliable site not this one!!!

cancelled like others

July 14, 2023 by Darlene from United States

Was a member for many, many, many years with no problems, then just cancelled for no reason. People should be told prior to cancellation why they are being cancelled, rather than the site just cancelling them.

Update: It took a few weeks for Customer Service to get back to me as to why my account was cancelled and why they absconded with my points. Of course, like the others whose accounts were cancelled, they just sent me a list of possible reasons that my account MAY HAVE been cancelled, but no precise reason. Of course, not! Once cancelled, points are forfeited, and my account will not be re-instated. STAY AWAY unless you don't mind them taking your points.

Banned for no Reason

June 24, 2023 by Hannah from United States

I was a member of Lifepoints for 12 years. It was the very first survey site I used, back when it was MySurvey. I had no problems with it until last week, when I tried to log in and got a message saying my membership was canceled. After I emailed support about it, they said my account was suspended due to poor survey practice. When I asked them what poor survey practices led to my suspension, they said my Terms and Conditions violations were overwhelming. I received no prior warnings about this and I really wish I could know what I did wrong.

I'm not sure what I did but after reading similar reviews here, it's good to see that I'm not the only one. This site used to be so good to me and it's sad to see this happening to so many users. If you're looking for a new survey site there's plenty of other options.

Access Denied

June 23, 2023 by Irene from United Kingdom

I have been a member of LifePoints for over 10 years and have been unable to log in. I keep getting a message to say that my membership was cancelled and to contact them if I have any questions. I have emailed twice but haven't received a reply. After reading other members comments who have been experiencing similar problems I'm wondering if LifePoints is experiencing difficulties!!!

Membership canceled after 25 years

June 21, 2023 by Steve from Canada

While on the middle of a survey the other day, I was directed to the LifePoints homepage with a message that said my membership has been canceled due to violating terms and conditions. I contacted support and was told an audit of my account caused this.
I have been a member of LifePoints for over 25 years and always did my surveys honestly. This is so rude and disappointing from a well established survey provider. Shame on you LifePoints!!!!!
