For those who are wondering which survey site are actually paying. I wished to confirm that Global Test Market does pay. I have got the cheque (Check) issued to me from the company.
Best of all, it is not from US Bank. From a Bank in my country which I do not need to pay the middle man charges as well as the remittance fees.
This is great for International member like me. I am from Singapore, a country in Asia.
For sharing. Cheers.

Hi there, first of all, I would like to thank you so much for responding to this discussion.
You need to have a minimum of 1000 point before you can request for a payment. There will be a payment option in either your profile or your market points page.
Cheers.

That sounds really interesting. You receive cheque from your local bank for program in US? I've heard Global Test Market so long ago, but I never join it since I've learn that this program products for testing usually for customer in the same area where the product produced. Otherwise, the test won't be really helpful.
Thanks for sharing this info, I will check on the program. I appreciate if you could explain further what kind of offer that you do in that program. Thanks.

Thank you for the kind response.
Yes, I got the cheque from ABN Ambro Bank, not a local bank, but a branch based in my country.
Essentially, points were earned by filling up surveys. Incomplete surveys due to disqualification and met quota were also awarded with points, only lesser. If I remember correctly its about 5 to 10. Successful completion of a survey can be around 100 or 200 points sometimes, I think. The points were accumulated for a period of about 1 and half year for me.

Does Global Test Market also offer surveys for the Philippines? I've tried joining in a survey program before but it was very disappointing for survey offers are not available for Filipinos.

I would believe Global Test Market would offer surveys internationally.
But specifically, I cannot tell you whether they have many surveys for member in Philippines. You need to join as member to find that out. Or you may also want to check with the administrator of this site.
I presume they do offer surveys to members from most countries.
Cheers and thanks for the response.

Really hope that my discussion shed lights with regards to this survey site.
Thank you for your response.
By the way, it took me quite some to accumulate the 1000 points requirement. As surveys are not available everyday. I would say it is quite seasonal, once in awhile, there will be a number of them and sometimes there are none.
Cheers.

That is really cool and congratulations. I got paid by them already last year. And I have enough points to ask for a check again but I am going to wait until I get more points.

Great! How many marketpoints did you have and how many surveys did you do to get you to that?
I am with Global Test Market too and you can see my rankings on my blog along with other survey sites if you wish to join any. Lightspeed Panel is really good too, regular surveys and quick to pay out so join it if you haven't already:)

I have redeemed about 1135 points. The minimum redemption is 1000 points.
I cannot tell you how many surveys I have done because it was over a period of more than a year. I can only say I have done a lot but most of them, I did not meet the requirement and was stopped halfway and awarded 10 point or around there for my time taken.
Cheers and thanks for tour response.

That's great! I have been a member for a month or so but it will be awhile before I hit pay out. I really don't get a lot of surveys to take.

Yes, I agree survey site are generally slow in income. But it is good because you can be assured that they are not scams.
Just take some free time filling up surveys once in awhile and before you knew it, its pay out time.
Cheers and thank you for your response.
