Introduction to Caesars Rewards Tiers
Caesars Rewards are part of a loyalty program offered by Caesars that provides perks and benefits to visitors who bet, eat, shop, or stay at the company's resorts and casinos.
Members of this program are divided into tiers based on the number of 'tier credits' they earn by spending money at Caesars locations or betting with Caesars.
Depending on the number of points earned, they achieve Gold, Platinum, Diamond, Diamond Plus, Diamond Elite, or Seven Stars status.
This guide will help you understand how to accumulate tier points, the different tier levels you can attain with them, and the perks offered by each tier of the Caesars rewards program.
Earning Tier Credits and Status
Accumulating tier credits involves spending money or betting with Caesars, but the rates depend on the activity.
Earning rates may be subject to change, and it's a good idea to check the latest Caesars Rewards Program regulations at the company's official site.
That said, here are the latest details available:
Gaming Earnings
- Slot machines give one credit for every $5 played.
- Video poker machines give one credit for every $10 played.
- You can earn 10 credits for every $100 wagered on straight bets and 20 credits for every $100 bet on parlays at Caesars Sportsbook.
- Tier credit earnings on poker and table games are less clear-cut. According to Caesars, they are based on 'length of play, average bet' and 'type of game.'
Non-Gaming Earnings
The non-gaming credit earnings are decidedly simpler. You can earn a credit for a dollar spent on each of the following:
- Hotel rooms at Caesars Palace, Paris Las Vegas, Lake Tahoe, Horseshoe Online Casino, or other Caesars Entertainment properties.
- Resort Fees
- Participating Restaurants
- Spa
- Shopping
Caesars Rewards Visa Credit Card
One way to move up the tier ladder of the Caesars Rewards program quickly is to get a Caesars Rewards VISA card.
Some of its key features include:
- Automatic upgrade to Platinum status and 2,500 tier credits within 90 days of approval
- 10,000 reward credits (used on casino play, shopping, hotel rooms, etc., instead of climbing the tier ladder) and 2,500 tier credits with $1,000 or more spent outside of a Caesars Rewards location in the first 90 days after approval.
- 5,000 additional tier credits if you make at least $5,000 in purchases in a calendar year.
- Five reward credits for every dollar spent at Caesars Rewards locations, two for each dollar on restaurants, travel, and entertainment, and 1 for every dollar spent on purchases that don't fit the first two categories.
Gold Status
Tier Credits Required: 0-4,999
Gold Status is an introductory level that allows Caesars Rewards members to collect and spend rewards credits and receive some minor perks and savings opportunities.
For instance, those with Gold Status receive a $5 bonus bet with Caesars Sportsbook during their birthday month if they opt in and place at least a $100 cash wager, which settles during the previous month.
Members of this tier are also entitled to perks associated with Caesars partners. For example, they receive discounted rates at Atlantis Paradise Island in the Bahamas and special rates on car rentals through National.
Platinum Status
Tier Credits Required: 5,000 – 14,999
Members who reach Platinum Status receive all of the benefits of Gold, with some notable added perks:
Hotel Benefits
One of the most significant benefits on offer is one free night at a Caesars Rewards Resort at any of the following five locations:
Online Sports Betting Benefits
Sports bettors who place a $100 wager or more in any given month with Platinum Status will receive a $10 Caesars bonus bet for the company's online sportsbook. In their birthday month, that bonus bet is worth $20.
Caesars Partner Reward Benefits
- 10% discount on select Norwegian Cruise Line vacations
- Tier status match with Wyndham Rewards, a loyalty program for the hotel and resort chain.
- Tier status match with National Emerald Club, a loyalty program for the car rental company.
Other Miscellaneous Benefits
- 15% discount at casino gift shops
- Free valet parking and self-parking at many Caesars locations.
Diamond Status
Tier Credits Required: 15,000 – 24,999
Reaching Diamond Status entitles members to a number of privileges unavailable to those with Gold or Platinum Status.
Here are some highlights:
- 15% off the best available advertised rate on rooms and suites
- Waived resort fees on any hotel stay
- Guaranteed Room with 72 hours' notice in Atlantic City and Las Vegas
- $100 'celebration dinner' at participating Caesars-owned restaurants
- Priority lines at hotel check-in, restaurants, casino cages, and the Caesars Rewards Center
- Use of the VIP Reservations Hotline
- Access to the VIP Laurel Lounge where available
- Complimentary stay at Atlantis, Paradise Island in The Bahamas
There are also a number of situations where existing benefits are improved from those found in the Platinum Status Tier:
Perk | Platinum Status | Diamond Status |
Casino gift shop discount | 15% | 20% |
Monthly sportsbook bonus bet | $10 | $20 |
Birthday month sportsbook bonus bet | $20 | $40 |
Norwegian Cruise Line vacations discount | 10% | 20% |
Diamond Plus Status
Tier Credits Required: 25,000 – 74,999 Tier Credits
The difference between Diamond Status and Diamond Plus Status is modest compared to the distinction between Diamond and Platinum.
Most of the perks and discount percentages are the same, with the sportsbook bonus bet increasing from $20 to $30 and $40 to $60 during the member's birthday month.
The biggest difference is that Diamond Status members gain access to Laurel Lounges, while Diamond Plus members receive complimentary access.
Diamond Elite Status
Tier Credits Required: 75,000+ Tier Credits
Like the distinction between Diamond and Diamond Plus, the difference between Diamond Plus and Diamond Elite comes down to sportsbook bonus bets and one key perk.
In this case, the sportsbook bonus bet increases to $75 for normal months and $150 for birthday months. However, the additional perk is arguably more significant than free Laurel Lounge access, as Diamond Elite members receive a $600 airfare credit to Las Vegas once per year.
Seven Star Status
Tier Credits Required: 150,000+ Tier Credits by invitation only
Those who earn an invitation to Seven Star Status receive a number of exclusive benefits unavailable to other tier levels.
In-Person Benefits
One of the most noticeable benefits of reaching Seven Star Status is the perks available to enhance your stay at any Caesars location.
Discounts
These members also receive higher discount levels than those with Diamond Elite status.
Discount | Diamond Elite | Seven Stars |
Casino Gift Shop | 20% | 25% |
Norwegian Cruise Line Vacations | 25% | 30% |
Caesars Rewards eCatalog merchandise | 0 | 15% |
Travel Offers
Perhaps the most significant rewards associated with the status are the additional travel offers.
Not only do those with Seven Star status get everything from the previous tiers, such as a free hotel stay, a $600 airfare credit, and a complimentary stay in The Bahamas, but they also receive a retreat to any Caesars Rewards destination with airfare up to $1,200, round-trip transportation between the airport and hotel, as well as a $500 dining folio and a 'congratulatory voyage' with Norwegian Cruise Line.
Navigating the Reward Tiers Responsibly
Programs like Caesars Rewards provide incentives to keep you playing and climbing the tier ladder. Doing so will require a great deal of expenditure on your part and could result in gambling at a level that is outside your comfort zone.
It's important to make sure that what you spend on stays, shopping, and betting is within your means so that you can continue without experiencing financial strain. These rewards can create a false sense of value and make you spend more money or time than you intended. The temptation to earn perks and ascend the tier ladder can trump the importance of sticking to a budget or taking breaks if you're not careful.
To gamble responsibly, set your spending and time limits before you start and stick to them, no matter what rewards are on offer. One way to give yourself the best chance to accomplish that is to stay sober. Often, in a casino setting, free drinks are readily available, but being intoxicated can lead to poor decision-making.
Don't get caught up in chasing a specific tier status. Remember that these programs are for the well-being of the casino, not you, the player.
Conclusion
Caesars Rewards tiers offer escalating benefits to members based on their spending and gaming activity.
- Gold tier provides foundational perks like earning and redeeming credits for basic discounts.
- Higher tiers such as Platinum and Diamond offer increased privileges, including free stays, waived resort fees, and VIP access.
- The top tiers, Diamond Elite and Seven Stars, include exclusive benefits like airfare credits and luxury retreats.
Understanding the program's structure can help members evaluate its potential value while managing their participation responsibly.
