Taking Players To The Next Level
Revel introduces enriched recognition & rewards program for 2013
By H. Scot Krause
Atlantic City’s newest resort, Revel, has launched a new and exciting rewards program that takes perks for players to the next level. Guests can earn resort dollars property-wide and enjoy free Wi-Fi and complimentary offers just for playing, staying or partying at Revel.
The new club features 3 tier levels: Ocean, Beach and Pearl, each with increasing benefits as you move up the ladder. The Revel Card is unique to Atlantic City because members earn resort dollars in nearly every area of the resort including the hotel, restaurants, nightlife spots, and of course, the gaming floor. Additionally, Revel Card members never have to worry about conversion. Every resort dollar is worth the same dollar for dollar at every venue including retail and entertainment.
Upon sign up, players open the door to benefits by becoming an Ocean Card level member. (If you were previously a member of the club, your former available “resort dollar” balance is unaffected.) This first level offers guests immediate complimentary Wi-Fi access, special offers, discounts and events—and based on your play, some special surprises might be in the making.
Accrue 50,000 tier points between Jan. 1 – Dec. 31 this year, and you will become a Beach Card level member. When upgraded to Beach status, members receive all Ocean benefits as well as these additional benefits:
—Complimentary self and valet parking
—2X base resort dollar multiplier every day
—Access to two Daily Dining Passports ($10 each/$30 value)
—Entrance to the Annual Beach Tournament
At Pearl Card level, things really become exciting. By earning 350,000 tier points between Jan. 1 and Dec. 31, you’ll reach this elite status and unlock superior benefits and priority VIP treatment—including all of the Ocean and Beach level benefits, plus:
—Two complimentary Daily Dining Passports per day
—Suite upgrades (based on availability)
—Complimentary Bask Spa day pass
—Entrance to the Annual Pearl Tournament
—A 1-hour slot machine hold
—Dedicated Pearl hotline
—Preferred Ovation Hall seating
—Late check-out
In addition to dozens of gaming offers and events, Revel Card users receive exclusive opportunities that bring the resort experience to life, such as access to the SkyGarden for parties and events, private cocktail parties at O2, and VIP access to cabanas on The Mezz level.
Resort guests currently enrolled in the Revel Card program will be automatically entered into the new program. To sign up, or to inquire about your current Revel Card status, visit the Revel Card Desk from 9:00 a.m. – 10:00 p.m. Sunday through Thursday and 9:00 a.m. – 2:00 a.m. Friday and Saturday.
