Global Test
Market is a fairly established online
market research panel. They have
participants from nearly 200 countries
contributing opinions in return for cash
rewards. Over the years they have maintained
a solid reputation and have an impressive, 5
million plus, membership.
Similar to other survey companies Global
Test Market will send survey invitations to
your email box. This is why it's
important to use a valid email address when
you register with them. Upon
completion of a survey you'll be rewarded
with market points which can later be
redeemed for cash.
At the current exchange rate 1,000 points
will earn you fifty US dollars which is also
the minimum cash out level. The good
thing about Global Test Market is
that they reward loyalty and the more
surveys you complete the more points per
survey you will get.
The company pays out by checks in US
dollars, this can be a slight inconvenience
for non US residents, but nothing to
serious. After reaching the
appropriate level and requesting payment it
can take up to two months to receive your
check.
So far I haven't received any complaints
regarding non-payment issues from Global
Test Market members. The only downside
is that it can take several months to reach
the fifty dollar minimum cash out point.
So I would recommend using this company in
conjunction with another income stream.
The surveys from Global Test Market
have been fairly entertaining as they tend
to include movie previews and new trial
products along with the standard
questionnaires. They also have a
referral program that will let you earn
bonus points for referring new members.
I work online with a method where you can make several
hundred dollars for a couple hours of work,
whenever you have time.
This business is free to join and I
won't charge you anything for the
information, just let me
know where to send you the info, Click Here.
Best of Luck,
Steve Albright

I also have been denied payment. I actually got to 1010 and happily cashed out my points...even got a confirmation email to tell me so. A week later I checked my account only to find my points had been reduced to 990 and even though I did another survey to take me above the cash out point again my points have not been credited to my account. This company is such a rip off!!!!

Yeah, you can rack up 930 points over three months, but thats it, they do everything in their power to keep you from getting 1000. DO NOT USE THIS!

I was a member for more than a year...cashed in a couple of times and then they said I signed up through Market Surveys and since GTM and MS were breaking up...I could no longer participate.
Problem is...I never heard of Market Surveys and GMT absconded with 800+ market points.
I am in the process of contacting GMT....anyone have a phone number??

Please do not accumulate your points for a bigger cash out. In May, I redeemed 8000 points (400 USD) and right after that I stopped receiving surveys. After a few failed communications with them, I posted message on their blog. They replied to me saying that my account was closed due to quality strikes and that they were not bound to disclose the exact reason for quality strike. I have been a member of GTM for three years now and it's really upsetting to think that they closed my account just because I requested for a large amount of reward at a time.

It's criminal but they get away with it. GTM is so dishonest & wrong they really need to be booted and legal action taken. What a bunch of low-rent pigs they are!

The thing w/ GTM is this, they send you surveys but the surveys always exclude you as not-qualifying. How can anyone ever reach the minimum 1000 points? They cannot. It is ridiculous. They dont want anyone redeeming points but they want to gather information so their sponsors will pay them for marketing info. What they do is fix the surveys to exclude everyone at some point after fact gathering enough information of value to give to their sponsors. This way, they get info from you then disqualify you but they can send info to their sponsors.

Global Test Market, is the VERY WORST survey company! I cannot imagine anyone being any worse or corrupt! I'm reporting them to the BBB as others have. But, GTM seems to always have an answer & somehow maintains a satisfactory record. More people need to make reports on them.

What is the real deal with Globaltestmarket? They invite you to join , make it sound like fun and profit. The fun stops when you want to redeem your earned points, they give you a run around, stop you from completing surveys and just make it a frustrating effort...

Joined several months ago and have only been invited to complete 4 surveys One of the surveys wouldn't let me complete it, so I received no points. It could take years before I get enough points to cash in.

I have finally reached the point where I can redeem my market points. I have tried numerous times and the process does not work. I do as instructed only to get a continual sign in page with no way to redeem points. I have contacted Customer Service who than emailed a day later stating the problem would be corrected. After trying again and again days later I can not redeem my points the site will not allow me to proceed any further than the redeem button page after hitting redeem I am placed on a sign in page and this is a never ending problem. Customer service contacted yesterday and no response.

I'm trying to find out the name of someone in charge at Global Test Market. In early July I put in a request for payment. At the time I had 5140 points or $257. I haven't received anything from them other than requests for my address or my account number. Today I got an email asking for my apartment number. I've been doing surveys for them for about 4 years and I've always received payment before. If you have any ideas on how I should proceed I would greatly appreciate it. Thank You.

I've been with Global Test Market, from some time now and I haven't qualified for a lot of the surveys that they've sent me it could just be because of the way I completed my personal profile. At this rate it might take a year to get enough points to cash out, but, it's still fun and easy money. If you're into survey sites, this is a decent one.
