Caesars Rewards Tier Credits Explained

Once you connect your online play to your Caesars Rewards account, your Caesars Rewards account balance will be updated within 72 hours to reflect any Online Tier Credits you’ve earned during your Caesars Casino & Sportsbook Pennsylvania online play. Elevate your online gaming to the next level with CaesarsOnline.com and Caesars Rewards. You can always earn your Tier Status back by earning the necessary thresholds: 5,000 Tier Credits for Platinum, 15,000 Tier Credits for Diamond, and 150,000 Tier Credits to be eligible for Seven Stars status.

Caesars Rewards, the loyalty program for Caesars casinos and resorts, offers some great benefits, especially for Diamond members. They have two types “currency” in their program: Rewards Credits and Tier Credits.

Rewards Credits

In the world of airline miles, Rewards Credits are your redeemable miles. Rewards credits are redeemable at $1 for every 200 Rewards Credits in free play at slot machines. A better use of points is through “self comps” to pay for hotel spend at a value of $1 for every 100 Rewards Credits.

A redemption option for Diamond members (including those earned through status match) is “buying” access to a Laurel Lounge. While those Diamond members that earn at least 25,000 Tier Credits (see below) gain complimentary access, all other Diamond elites must purchase access for 1,000 Rewards Credits.

Rewards Credits can also be transferred to Wyndham Rewards.

Rewards Credits are earned through gambling and spend.

When playing slots, you earn 1 Reward Credit for every $5 bet. Earning rates at table games are less transparent.

When spending on hotels and restaurants, you earn 1 Reward Credit for every $1 spent.

Tier Credits

In the world of airlines miles, Tier Credits are your elite qualifying miles. Tier Credits have no redeemable value. They are only used for tracking your progress towards elite status.

Tier Credits are earned (and reset to zero) each calendar year. They determine your status for the remainder of the year and the full following year. This means that if you earn enough Tier Credits for Diamond status on November 15, 2020, you keep Diamond status through December 31, 2021.

For example, Platinum Status is earned at 5,000 Tier Credits. Diamond Status is earned at 15,000 Tier Credits.

Tier Credits are earned at the same rates as Rewards Credits with one major exception. For every dollar spent on hotel room rates and resort fees, you earn 5 Tier Credits.

When playing slots, you earn 1 Tier Credit for every $5 bet. Earning rates at table games are less transparent. Restaurant spend and other spend earns 1 Tier Credit for every $1 spent.

Additionally, there are Tier Credit bonuses awarded when a certain number of Tier Credits are earned in one day.

• Earn 500 Tier Credits, get a bonus of 125 Tier Credits
• Earn 1,000 Tier Credits, get a bonus of 1,000 Tier Credits
• Earn 2,500 Tier Credits, get a bonus of 5,000 Tier Credits
• Earn 5,000 Tier Credits, get a bonus of 10,000 Tier Credits

Caesars Rewards often run promotions for additional Tier Credits.

Tier Credits = Free Nights

For every 5,000 Tier Credits earned, you get one free night in Las Vegas or Atlantic City that must be used by January 31 of the following calendar year. For example, if you hit your 5,000 Tier Credit mark in December 2020, you will have to redeem your free night for a stay before January 31, 2021.

Scenario

Let’s say you are a Caesars Reward Diamond visiting Las Vegas for two nights at Caesars Palace. The room rate is $100 + taxes per night. You don’t pay resort fees as a Diamond.

Over the course of gambling during one day, you “coin in” $5,000 in slots.

You spend $100 at restaurants in the hotel.

In this case, you earn the following rewards:

• Reward Credits: 200 (1 = $1 hotel rate) + 1,000 (1 = $5 slots) + 100 (1 = $1 restaurants) = 1,300 Reward Credits
• Tier Credits: 1,000 (5 = $1 hotel rate) + 1,000 (1 = $5 slots) + 1,000 (Tier Credit daily bonus) + 100 (1 = $1 restaurants) = 3,100 Tier Credits

Caesars Entertainment is rebranding its Total Rewards players’ club as Caesars Rewards.

This program continues to be one of the largest and most popular casino loyalty clubs in the US. In 2018, Total Rewards had more than 55 million members.

Caesars Rewards

There won’t be many changes to the players’ club when the name changes. Caesars Rewards will merely continue the tradition that many Caesars Entertainment customers have come to expect from Total Rewards.

The rebrand will keep about everything intact, add a couple of benefits and pretty new players’ club cards. Members won’t have to change their playing habits and they can even keep using their old Total Rewards card.

However, Caesars Entertainment does recommend picking up a new Caesars Rewards’ players’ club card beginning Feb. 1, at any Caesars Rewards Center. New cards will not be sent to customers through the mail.

It all started with Total Rewards

Caesars Rewards has a lot to live up to after being named the “Best Players Club” by USA Today’s “10Best” Readers’ Choice Awards.

When it started in 1997, Total Rewards was the first fully integrated national player rewards program. Caesars Rewards is the casino loyalty club that every competitor has modeled its club after in one way or another.

Caesars Rewards will still work with nearly 40 casinos in the following 13 states:

Same policy for tier and rewards credits

Caesars Tier Credit Bonus

It’s convenient that the changeover to Caesars Rewards will be virtually stress-free for players, as the general program structure is basically the same.

Regardless of the card used in Caesars’ casinos, guests will not see adjustments in their reward credit balance. It will remain the same as long as at least one reward credit is earned every six months. This policy is the same as Total Rewards’.

Tier credits were reset to zero at the beginning of the New Year just as they would have with Total Rewards. The tier levels will remain the same for Caesars Rewards:

• Gold: Zero-4,999 tier credits
• Platinum: 5,000-14,999 tier credits
• Diamond: 15,000+ tier credits
• Seven Stars: 150,000+ tier credits (Exclusive, invitation only)

The daily tier credit bonuses will also remain intact:

5x Tier Credits Caesars

• First bonus: Earn 500 tier credits, receive 125 tier credit bonus
• Earn 1,000 tier credits, receive 1,000 tier credit bonus
• Earn 2,500 tier credits, receive 5,000 tier credit bonus
• Maximum bonus: Earn 5,000 tier credits, receive 10,000 tier credit bonus
