Casino rewards programs, also called players clubs, track what you spend on gambling, hotel rooms, dining and shows, then give part of it back as free play, comps and tier perks. Joining is free. What you get out of a program depends on how much you play, which games you play and how well you understand its earning rules.
Most of the big programs have new names. MGM Resorts replaced M life with MGM Rewards in February 2022, with five tiers from Sapphire to the invitation-only Noir. Eldorado’s ONE Club members moved into Caesars Rewards after Eldorado bought Caesars in 2020. Wynn replaced its Red Card with Wynn Rewards. Penn National Gaming, now PENN Entertainment, replaced Marquee Rewards with PENN Play in 2023. Station Casinos in Las Vegas runs my|Rewards Boarding Pass.
The guides below explain how each program works, what the tiers are worth and how to earn comps faster. Earning rules and tier thresholds change every year or two, so check the program’s own site before you chase a tier.
