Caesars Rewards Loyalty Program Review [Previously Total Rewards] (2024)

Key Takeaways

  • Caesars Rewards offers members tiered benefits based on play and spending, with perks including free or discounted hotel stays, dining credits, and presale access to select shows.
  • Points can be earned and redeemed at Caesars and Eldorado properties worldwide.
  • Elite status levels provide enhanced benefits like free show tickets, valet parking, priority check-in, a celebration dinner, and Laurel Lounge access.

Caesars Rewards is the loyalty program for all Caesars Resorts properties. Along with its presence on the Las Vegas Strip, Caesars has properties across the country and throughout the world.

Formerly known as Total Rewards, the program has since been rebranded to Caesars Rewards. It has one of the most rewarding casino elite statuses available, thanks to its wide portfolio and generous elite perks such as annual free dinners, waived resort fees, and more.

In this post, we’ll break down the different tiers of elite status, how to achieve them, and all the benefits they offer so that you can get the most out of your Caesars Rewards.

How Caesars Rewards Works

How To Join

Joining the Caesars Rewards program is easy and free. If you’re going to any of its properties, you’ll want to sign up. This is true even if you’re not interested in gaining elite status because any money you spend at Caesars properties will earn you Reward Credits that you can later redeem.

To sign up, you’ll need to navigate to the Caesars Rewards home page. You’ll then click Sign In at the top right corner. A pop-up will open, allowing you to create a new account.

Caesars Rewards Loyalty Program Review [Previously Total Rewards] (2)

Depending on if you’ve already got a Caesars Rewards number (if, for instance, you joined the program in-person and need online access) or not, you’ll fill out a different form that includes your personal information.

That’s it! You’ll have your shiny new rewards number and you’ll be able to get a digital copy of your membership card on the Caesars app. You can also go to a Caesars Rewards Center at one of its hotels to sign up or grab a hard copy of your card (just remember your valid photo ID!).

Hot Tip: You must be at least 21 years old to sign up for a Caesars Rewards account (or 19 years old to visit Caesars Windsor).

Tier Credits

As a Caesars Rewards member, you gain elite status based on how many Tier Credits you earn in a calendar year. These Tier Credits can be earned in a variety of ways, like hotel rooms, shopping, dining, spa services, and gambling.

Caesars will also give you bonuses on your Tier Credits if you earn a certain amount each day:

Reward Credits

Caesars Rewards Loyalty Program Review [Previously Total Rewards] (3)

Separate from Caesars Tier Credits, Reward Credits are earned from a broader array of activities and can be redeemed for a variety of things. Caesars will give you a fixed value for your Reward Credits depending on how and where you redeem them. Generally speaking, 200 Reward Credits will equal $1, though you can find redemptions where they’re worth more.Your credits can be used at restaurants, hotel stays, shopping — basically anything you can find at a Caesars property.

Earning Reward Credits

Caesars has tons of ways to earn Reward Credits:

  • Hotels
  • Shopping
  • Dining
  • Spa services
  • Gambling
  • Caesars Rewards Dining
  • Using the Caesars Shopping Portal
  • Holding meetings at Caesars Resorts
  • Transferring in Wyndham Rewards points
  • Paying your energy bill with NRG Home
  • Completing guest surveys

Redeeming Reward Credits

Like we mentioned, you can redeem your Reward Credits for many different activities. While a lot of these take place at Caesars resorts, additional partnerships also mean that you can redeem your Reward Credits off-property.

  • Free Slot Play
  • Entry into the World Series of Poker
  • Hotel stays
  • Dining
  • Shopping
  • Show tickets
  • Spa services
  • Caesars Rewards Live Events — good for tickets to sporting events, concert tickets, and theater events nationwide

Celebration Dinner

The Total Rewards Diamond Celebration Dinner, now known as the Caesars Rewards Diamond celebration dinner, is a $100 annual credit available to Diamond members. Seven Stars members, meanwhile, receive a $500 annual dinner credit. These dinners can be redeemed at most Caesars restaurant locations, including Las Vegas, Lake Tahoe, and Atlantic City. The dinner expires each year on January 31st. The $100 Diamond elite celebration dinner must be used all at once, while the $500 Seven Stars dinner can be used in increments.

A member must have at least 100 Tier Credits to earn the Celebration Dinner.

Hot Tip: A $50 UberEats gift card can be chosen in lieu of the $100 Celebration Dinner.

Laurel Lounge Access

Diamond members and above have access to Laurel Lounges. These lounges are located in certain Caesars Resorts and offer free food, free drinks, and a quiet escape from the casino.

Diamond Plus, Diamond Elite, and Seven Stars members have complimentary access to the Laurel Lounge. Regular Diamond members have to pay 1,000 Reward Credits if they want to enter. It may seem hard to earn that many credits, especially if you’re not a gambler, so many folks opt to transfer over 1,000 Wyndham points as a quick and easy solution.

Status Matches

Caesars Rewards elite members have a plethora of options when it comes to matching their statuses at other chains.

  • Wyndham — As mentioned previously, Caesars and Wyndham members can match their statuses over indefinitely. This is a good way to maintainpermanent elite status.
  • Eldorado — After Eldorado purchased Caesars in 2019, the 2 programs became reciprocal. You can link and match your Caesars status to both Fan Club and Club GVC.
  • Caesars U.K. — Platinum and Diamond Caesars Rewards members can match their elite status to Caesars U.K. In addition to reciprocal status, members can transfer their Rewards Credits to Caesars U.K. at a 2:1 ratio.
  • Turning Stone — Platinum, Diamond, and Seven Stars elite members can match their statuses over to Turning Stone Resort Casino for Ruby, Onyx, or Sapphire status.

Which Credit Cards Should You Use at Caesars?

Caesars Rewards® Visa® Credit Card

Caesars Rewards Loyalty Program Review [Previously Total Rewards] (6)

The Caesars Rewards card earns Reward Credits that you can redeem at Caesars or its partners.

With this card, you’ll earn:

  • 10,000 Reward Credit bonus when you spend $750 in purchases in the first 90 days
  • 5 Reward Credits for every dollar spent at Caesars Rewards locations
  • 2 Reward Credits for every dollar spent at gas stations, grocery stores, and airlines
  • 1 Reward Credits per dollar everywhere else

Reward Credits do not expire for cardholders who use their card once at least every 6 months. Because Caesars usually values its own Reward Credits at a half-cent each, you’ll be earning 2.5% back on your spend at Caesars.

You’ll also be upgraded to Platinum for a year after making 1 purchase with your card within the first 90 days. But while Platinum status is nice, there are better options for your spending at Caesars Resorts.
