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!

Poor Support Service

May 9, 2020 by Egla from Australia

UPDATE
And another problem again ..
Has been more than a month now and i don`t get any more surveys, i keep emailing and the only answer i get is clean the cache. this is the only solution they know for every problem. Sooooo disappointed
...................

I have been a member of Life Points for more than 2 years and everything was going perfectly fine until they made some changes to their system.
I cannot login using my credentials and cannot even reset my password as i don`t get a reset password email.
I have been emailing and explaining the issue for 2 weeks and they keep suggesting me to clear the cache and nothing is solved yet. Not sure what has happened and why is so difficult for them to try themselves if an email works or not and solve the issue.
Do they have an IT Support person who should deal with this issue or not??
Very disappointing....

UPDATE**
Issue solved finally, although there were not all the points i had earned, at least i can login.

May 5, 2020 by Rosemarie from Canada

Despite multiple emails and assurances that my account was transferred over to LifePoints I am still unable to login. When I try password recovery my email does not exist. I have lost all my survey points/rewards. I am very disappointed and frustrated.

The number of participants has been completed

April 25, 2020 by Liz from Brazil

I've been on this survey panel since it was a 'Global test market' and they promised a lot of improvements when the site changed its name. So far I am very disappointed with the surveys that are halfway through and only after answering the questions for 10-15 minutes does it appear that the number of participants required for such a survey had already been reached. I'm not saying that this problem is sporadic, it happens EVERY TIME!
For every 10 surveys I propose to answer, only 1 reaches the end and the points are computed,
And the 10-15 minutes spent are not about basic questions, but rather, they contain a lot of information about my behavior regarding products and services.
The impression it gives is that LifePoints raises money from the researches done in half, since it contains substantial market information and that can be used for analysis of the companies' marketing sector. This value does not return to the panelists as points.

Hi Liz,

We are sorry you've been screened out of some surveys while in due course.

Some surveys require only a limited number of responses per category, for example, from a region or age group. Sometimes the number of participants needed for a certain survey is reached very quickly and we are forced to close the survey as soon the quota is reached. Please know that only data from completed surveys are used for analysis.

If you still experience issues with our surveys, please open a new ticket with our Help Center here - https://lifepoints.zendesk.com/hc/en-gb/requests/new - while quoting 'SITEREVIEW-SP', we can ensure that your ticket will be escalated with our customer service team.

Best Regards,
Ben
