Caesars Rewards Best Credit Card Offer
The current sign-up bonus is 10,000 Reward Credits and 2,500 Tier Credits as a bonus when you use your Caesars Rewards Visa Card and spend $1000 outside of a Caesars Rewards destination within the first 90 days of being approved. BUT even better than that- you’ll also earn another 2500 Tier Credits and Platinum Status upon activation and use of your card within the first 90 days. That’s a whopping 5,000 Tier Credits just for spending $1000 and it doesn’t end there- this is the best part– if you spend $5000 on the card in the calendar year you’ll earn another 5,000 Tier Credits! This will give you 10,000 Tier Credits towards the highly coveted Caesars Diamond Status. You’ll also earn two additional free nights in Las Vegas, Atlantic City, Lake Tahoe or Reno since you get a free night for every 5,000 Tier Credits earned in 2022.

Caesars Credit Card- Offers Amazing Value, Elite Status Free Nights and More
Thanks to this revamp, it probably makes a lot of sense for more people to sign up for the credit card because they’ll get 10,000 Tier Credits and thereby two free nights, 10,000 Caesars Rewards Credits, Platinum status and be extremely close to earning Caesars Diamond status which will be pretty hard to get for next year since Caesars will no longer be matching Wyndham Rewards Status for members who matched into the program. To earn Diamond Status you would need 5,000 more tier credits which can pretty easily be done with the Diamond in a Day Bonus. Caesar’s Status is earned based on your activity in the calendar year so you could do the Diamond in a day 5k bonus and earn Caesars Rewards Diamond Plus which has some significant benefits over standard Diamond Status like free lounge access and an upgraded Atlantis trip as well as a larger monthly free bet.

Free nights ….can be weekend nights ?
bethany says
Theoretically yes, but I’m guessing it’s based on availability which means they’re harder to book unless you’re not too picky about property or dates.
Bougiemiles says
Yes, no restriction on which nights as long as there’s availability for a free night and programs are so sketchy about how that’s figured out. Best to just call with a few dates in mind.
Mike says
So the free nights still have resort fees? It seems better to save the free nights until Diamond level or possibly just focus on the Wyndham Business card.
Bougiemiles says
I actually would do both, yes the free nights would have resort fees if you didn’t get to 15k Tier Credits but if you’re at 10 how could you not do a quick Diamond in a day. Though the Wyndham Card is a sure thing- it just limits some of the benefits since it’s a match.
Danny says
Planning a trip in August, if I apply for the card today, spend 15k in the next month does my new tier status kick in right away?
Tom Thurmond says
It says that if you spend $5,000, you earn 5000 TIER credits. Is that just the first year? Or if I earn 5000 tier credits in 2022 by spending $5k, and then I spend $5k in 2023, can I earn 5000 tier credits again in 2023?
Reggie says
I need the answer to this.
Dw says
Same, what is the answer??
RUTHIE TYUS says
When will the 2022 year’s amount spent with the Visa Card be evaluated and added to your 2023 Tier Credits?
Mark R. says
Hi Bethany – do you know if the Platinum Status automatically renews each year you keep the Caesars Rewards Visa open?
