Players participating in the VIP Scheme at bet365 Poker should have received some good news in their inbox today – the value of the VIP scheme for bet365 poker players has been increased dramatically.
There are two big changes to the program, both of which add significant value – especially to players at the higher end of the VIP scheme.
New: Loyalty Rewards
This is the first big change, and it’s applicable to Platinum Status holders only. If you maintain your status for consecutive months, you’ll receive bonuses based on the number of months you’ve managed to do so. At the top of the Loyalty Rewards chart is a reward of $1,750 for players who manage to maintain their Platinum Status for 12 consecutive months.
Note that you can only make progress toward one Loyalty Reward at a time. There are rewards for 3, 6 and 12 consecutive month periods, but “cashing in” for any reward resets your consecutive month number to 0 for the purpose of Loyalty Rewards.
Merit Points Exchange Boosted
The second big change comes in the Merit Points exchange aspect of the VIP scheme. Bet365 has introduced a few new exchange levels and boosted the value of several existing levels by 25%. The amount of points you need hasn’t changed – only the cash you get for exchanging them. The new levels are below
Merit Points = Reward (Previous Reward) / Required VIP
- 7500 = $50 / Bronze
- 20000 = $150 / Silver
- 50000 = $600 / Silver
- 100000 = $1350 / Gold
- 200000 = $3,500 (was $3,000) / Gold
- 375000 = $7,500 (was $7,000) / Platinum
- 700000 = $17,500 (was $15,000) / Platinum
- 1500000 = $45,000 (was $37,500) / Platinum
- 2500000 = $80,000 (was $70,000) / Platinum
- 5000000 = $165,000 (was $150,000) / Platinum
