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.

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!

Total Waste of Time

February 1, 2020 by Lois from United States

I was a long time member in good standing of two sites that became part of Lifepoints. I was informed my memberships would be transferred with no loss of earnings to the new site. Over one year and several inquiries later, today I was informed my membership has been canceled and all earnings lost because I supposedly violated their terms of service.

1 Month of Wasted Time!

January 24, 2020 by John from Canada

After earning $26.50 in the first month and requesting my $25.00, the process was underway. After a week of waiting, I sent them an email. The very next day my account had been deleted.

UPDATE : The above review was left in error, as it was for the wrong company. The correct company is based in Germany.

LifePoints...used to be known as : GLOBAL TEST MARKET (uses the same points-pay-out-system).
I was with GLOBAL TEST MARKET for many years, they had a payout system where you had to earn 7,200 points to cash-out (I know weird amount, right?). Each 2,400 points you earned, you can trade it in for a $20 PayPal amount.
BUT...you need 3 of them to request the cash-out. Therefore : 2,400 x 3 = 7,200 which is $20 x 3 = $60.
So...I go to the website & try to log in & … my account had been deleted!
I had between 1,600 to 2,000 points at the time. This site taught me a "Life" lesson - Ho, Ho, Ho!

no pay no play

January 20, 2020 by RODNEY from United States

i stopped using life points a week ago they stopped paying I cashed out 4 times starting around the 6 of Nov and have not received my payments from Paypal the funny thing is I cashed out to amazon and i have received that.

3 weeks and 6 emails later and no response.

January 14, 2020 by Kara from United States

Update. 1/13/2020. Still nothing from them but the still sensing me emails to follow them on Facebook and to do quizzes. Still haven't gotten my points back, account not reactivated and no answers.Update, today is the 23 of Dec and still no word from lifepoints. My first email was sent 11.29.Beware. Woke up one day and couldn't get into my account. They told me I canceled it. Why would I cancel and then send a ticket asking why I can't get I to my account if I had cancelled it? Duh... They told me to make a new account using a new email and then send them my old email and my new email and my points from my "closed" account would be added to the new one. Well I did everything I was told but they popped back saying it had to be escalated and investigated!' I've heard of others being locked out of their account randomly and unexpectedly. Now I have written to them twice and no response. Try to login and it says error. There are no surveys. I had surveys every day. Weird thing is that when they say I closed my account I was still getting emails from them telling me something bug was in the works. I guess they worked out closing my account and taking my points. I have been withheld from earning and lied on. Beware of this site please. Time to contact the BBB.

Can't redeem pts. or get answer as to why

January 13, 2020 by Amy from United States

I sent them a message that I am not allowed to redeem my pts. back in Oct. '19.....got a response right away that they were looking into the issue. Then up until Dec. 17, I got messages about once a week that they were working on it, and that certain things take time. Have not received any more of these vague replies since then, so resolving myself to write off the points and the time I invested as a loss.
