VegasNow VIP and loyalty points, level by level
At VegasNow, loyalty points build from real-money play: A$25 on pokies, A$100 on roulette or A$250 at blackjack and baccarat earns one. Status points lift you through seven levels with Las Vegas names, redeemable points are spent in the Loyalty Store, and above both sits the Sin City VIP Lounge, open by invitation only.
VegasNow loyalty and VIP in one table
Here is the whole scheme before the detail. Points come from real-money bets, the rate depends on the game, and two separate balances do two separate jobs. The Sin City VIP Lounge is not a level: it works by selection.
| Question | Short answer |
|---|---|
| What earns points? | Real-money wagers, counted on turnover, win or lose |
| Pokies | One point to each balance for every A$25 staked |
| Roulette | One point per A$100 staked |
| Baccarat and blackjack | One point per A$250 staked |
| Levels | Seven, all named for Las Vegas venues: Golden Glimmer first, Bella Vista last |
| Smallest store exchange | 200 points for A$5 (Golden Glimmer rate) |
| Best published store rate | A$5,000 for 100,000 points, at Bella Vista |
| Rules on exchanged bonuses | 40× inside 7 days; A$8 top bet |
| Sin City entry | Chosen on dedication and regular activity; no points price |
Our sources are the loyalty programme page, the Sin City VIP Lounge page and the bonus terms dated 26 February 2024. Where the programme page is silent, this page is too, rather than estimating. Sign in and the full ladder is visible in your account.
Status points climb, redeemable points spend
A pokie bet feeds two balances at once, and they never mix. One is a running total that sets your level; the other is a wallet you draw down.
Redeemable points
A spending balance. You exchange it for bonus funds in the Loyalty Store, and an exchange reduces it.
Status points
A running total that decides your level. Store exchanges are paid from the other balance, not this one.
Your level
Set by status points. A higher level unlocks a better exchange rate in the store, so the same points buy more.
The link between the two is the store rate. On pokies, A$25 of real-money play adds one point to each balance, so climbing a level and saving for an exchange happen together. The difference shows when you spend: trading 200 redeemable points for A$5 draws on the spending balance only, not on the status total that sets your level.
Bonus wagering is a third count again. The bets that clear a bonus are measured by game contribution, whereas the programme awards points for real-money play, so one spin can matter to one count and not the other.
What each A$1 of real-money play earns at VegasNow
Pokies earn fastest by a wide margin: a dollar staked there earns four times what it earns on roulette and ten times what it earns at blackjack or baccarat. The table turns the published rates into points per dollar and applies them to three turnover sizes, each a multiple of A$500 so every figure comes out whole.
| Game type | Wagered per point | Points per A$1 | A$1,500 wagered | A$3,500 wagered | A$12,000 wagered |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pokies | A$25 | 0.04 | 60 | 140 | 480 |
| Roulette | A$100 | 0.01 | 15 | 35 | 120 |
| Blackjack | A$250 | 0.004 | 6 | 14 | 48 |
| Baccarat | A$250 | 0.004 | 6 | 14 | 48 |
Two details are easy to miss. Points follow the amount staked, not the outcome, so a losing A$1,500 session and a winning one earn the same 60 points on pokies. And baccarat shares the blackjack rate for points while adding nothing towards bonus wagering. On the bonus side, contribution is 100% on pokies (with listed exceptions), a quarter on roulette, and a tenth on blackjack and game shows. You can browse titles on our pokies page and the tables on our live casino page.
A month of mixed play turned into VegasNow points
Most accounts spread play across the lobby, so here is one illustrative month across four game types. The amounts are real-money turnover, not deposits, and they are invented for the arithmetic only.
| Game | Turnover in the month | Rate | Points earned |
|---|---|---|---|
| Elvis Frog in Vegas (pokie) | A$2,750 | 1 per A$25 | 110 |
| Lightning Roulette | A$900 | 1 per A$100 | 9 |
| Live blackjack | A$1,000 | 1 per A$250 | 4 |
| Baccarat | A$500 | 1 per A$250 | 2 |
| Total | A$5,150 | 125 |
The pokie share was about 53% of the month's turnover but 88% of its points. The 125 points sit 75 short of the 200-point store minimum, a gap that A$1,875 more of pokie play would close. The same 125 status points also keep the account at Golden Glimmer I, with 475 still to go before Golden Glimmer II at 600.
Published VegasNow level thresholds and the turnover behind them
Seven named levels make up the ladder, and several divide into sub-tiers numbered I, II and III. These are the thresholds our programme page publishes. The steps after Golden Glimmer III and before Gondola Grand I appear once you sign in; we leave them out rather than guess.
| Level | Status points | On pokies | On roulette | On blackjack or baccarat | Jump from previous published row |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Golden Glimmer I | 0 | Nil | Nil | Nil | Entry for every account |
| Golden Glimmer II | 600 | A$15,000 | A$60,000 | A$150,000 | 600 points |
| Golden Glimmer III | 2,000 | A$50,000 | A$200,000 | A$500,000 | 1,400 points |
| Gondola Grand I | 500,000 | A$12.5 million | A$50 million | A$125 million | 498,000 points |
| Julius Palace III | 3,000,000 | A$75 million | A$300 million | A$750 million | 2,500,000 points |
| Bella Vista | 5,000,000 | A$125 million | A$500 million | A$1.25 billion | 2,000,000 points |
Each turnover column is the status points multiplied by the game's rate: A$25, A$100 or A$250 a point. Read plainly, a steady pokie player can reach the first two steps within months, while Gondola Grand I onwards represents turnover few players will ever come near. A level name is a label, not a target.
One more level name is published through the store: Parisian Palace Las Vegas, which ranks higher than the Golden Glimmer tiers yet short of the top. New accounts all begin on Golden Glimmer I.
Weeks to Golden Glimmer II and III at two turnover rates
Time is the clearest way to read the ladder. The table assumes steady weekly pokie turnover at two sizes and counts the weeks to each published step.
| Weekly pokie turnover | Points a week | To Golden Glimmer II at 600 points | To Golden Glimmer III at 2,000 points | To Gondola Grand I at 500,000 points |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| A$750 | 30 | 20 weeks | About 67 weeks | About 320 years |
| A$1,250 | 50 | 12 weeks | 40 weeks | About 192 years |
At A$1,250 a week, the second Golden Glimmer tier arrives in about three months and the third in under a year. Gondola Grand I would take 10,000 weeks at the same pace. We show that figure so the level names cannot suggest something the arithmetic does not support.
On live tables the weeks multiply. A$1,250 a week on roulette earns 12.5 points by the rate, so Golden Glimmer II takes 48 weeks rather than 12; on blackjack it takes 120 weeks. If the level matters to you at all, that is a reason to notice which game is earning, not a reason to play more.
What a point buys in the VegasNow Loyalty Store
The store turns redeemable points into bonus funds. The entry row is A$5 for 200 points, and the rate climbs with your level. Here are the four published rows, with the value of a point and the pokie turnover that earns the points in each row.
| Level | Bonus | Points | Value per point | Pokie turnover behind it | Bonus as a share of that turnover |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Golden Glimmer | A$5 | 200 | 2.5 cents | A$5,000 | 0.1% |
| Golden Glimmer, saved | A$60 | 2,000 | 3 cents | A$50,000 | 0.12% |
| Parisian Palace Las Vegas | A$20 | 750 | About 2.7 cents | A$18,750 | About 0.11% |
| Bella Vista | A$5,000 | 100,000 | 5 cents | A$2,500,000 | 0.2% |
The last column puts the store in proportion: on pokies, an exchange returns between 0.1% and 0.2% of the turnover that earned it, as bonus money with conditions attached. On roulette, where points come four times more slowly, the same rows return a quarter of that.
At Golden Glimmer the choice is between small lots now and the 2,000-point row later. With 1,200 points you could take six lots of 200 for A$30, or keep going: another 800 points, which is A$20,000 of pokie turnover, reaches the A$60 row. Smaller, earlier bonuses are also easier to clear inside seven days, which the next section shows.
Exchanged bonuses still carry 40× and a seven-day clock
A store bonus is bonus money, not cash. Our general bonus terms apply to it in full: it needs 40× wagering inside a seven-day window, no bet may exceed A$8 while it is live, game contributions count as usual and it cannot share the account with another bonus.
| Bonus | Points spent | Wagering at 40× | Fewest A$8 pokie bets | Roulette stake at 25% | Blackjack stake at 10% |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| A$5 | 200 | A$200 | 25 | A$800 | A$2,000 |
| A$20 | 750 | A$800 | 100 | A$3,200 | A$8,000 |
| A$60 | 2,000 | A$2,400 | 300 | A$9,600 | A$24,000 |
| A$5,000 | 100,000 | A$200,000 | 25,000 | A$800,000 | A$2,000,000 |
A$60 of bonus means A$2,400 of qualifying play inside a week, roughly A$343 a day on pokies. Baccarat cannot clear any of these rows, because it counts 0%. Winnings from a bonus fall under the default A$5,000 cap in the same terms, and you may decline an exchanged bonus as you can any other.
The practical rule: size the exchange to the week you actually have. If A$343 a day is more than your normal play, A$5 lots cleared one after another spend the same points at a gentler pace. Our welcome bonus page shows the same contribution rules applied to the deposit stages.
Timing a points exchange around other VegasNow bonuses
Exchange only when your bonus balance is empty. Your account carries a single active bonus at any moment, so a store bonus taken during a live welcome stage or reload waits behind it rather than starting.
- Check the bonus area of your account. If a VEGAS2, VEGAS3 or VEGAS4 stage or a reload is listed, complete it, wait for it to lapse or decline it before exchanging.
- Pick the exchange row you can clear in seven days at your usual stake, staying at or under A$8 a bet.
- Exchange, then play pokies that count 100% for that bonus, checking the offer for excluded titles.
- Leave Tuesday clear if you want Lucky 7s Load Up, since a store bonus still running then blocks the reload.
A simple rhythm: clear Tuesday's Lucky 7s bonus by midweek, exchange points on Wednesday or Thursday when nothing else is active, and keep Friday free for the Friday Night Spotlight spins if you want them. Our weekly promotions page sets out each day's offer.
Sin City VIP Lounge benefits and the limits behind them
Sin City sits outside the level ladder. Levels move automatically with status points; the lounge is by invitation, and what it publishes is a list of member benefits, not a points figure for getting in.
- your own VIP account manager;
- a VIP team available at any hour, any day;
- betting limits above the standard account's;
- bigger withdrawals, with quicker handling;
- tournaments and promotions open only to lounge members;
- milestone rewards, plus rewards for winning tournaments;
- invitations to VIP events;
- gifts chosen for you personally.
On withdrawals, be precise. The standard AU limits run from A$300 to A$6,000 for Inpay, PayAnyBank and wire transfer, and A$30 to A$4,000 for MiFinity. Our general terms leave room for VIP accounts to receive other withdrawal or daily limits, decided case by case, and no number is attached to that. Verification, own-name payment methods and the 3× deposit turnover rule apply to VIP accounts exactly as to everyone else; our withdrawals page lists the standard ranges.
| Levels | Sin City | |
|---|---|---|
| Way in | Automatic, as status points build | Selection on dedication and regular activity |
| Entry figure published | For the six rows listed earlier | No |
| What it changes | The exchange rate in the Loyalty Store | Limits, a personal manager, gifts, events and tournaments |
| Bonus rules | General terms | General terms unless an offer states otherwise |
Asking VegasNow support about a Sin City invitation
Want to be considered? Ask. Our lounge page names the two things we look for: dedication, and regular activity. It also says you can contact us to ask about joining. There is no points figure that produces an invitation automatically, and no level opens the lounge on its own.
Write to support@vegasnow.com from the email on your account, or open live chat while signed in. The team can say whether your account is under consideration and what would happen next. Consistency over time counts for more than one large deposit, and any VIP check starts from the basics: a verified account in good standing and payment methods in your own name. Our support page covers both channels.
Selection changes the service around your account; the sums inside a promotion stay the same. A VIP bonus is still a bonus, with 40× wagering, a seven-day life, an A$8 ceiling per bet and nothing else running beside it, unless that particular offer states different terms.
Loyalty assumptions worth correcting before you play
Most confusion about the programme comes from a handful of reasonable-sounding guesses. Each one below is checked against the published rules.
| Assumption | What the rules say |
|---|---|
| Winning sessions earn more points | Points follow turnover, so the result makes no difference |
| Baccarat is a poor choice for points | It earns at the blackjack rate; it is poor for bonus wagering, at 0% |
| A store bonus is cash I can withdraw | It is bonus money with 40× wagering and seven days |
| Exchanging points drops my level | Exchanges spend redeemable points, not status points |
| A high enough level means Sin City | Lounge membership is by selection, with no points threshold |
| I can hold a store bonus and a reload together | One active bonus at a time; the second waits |
| Bonus-funded spins build points like cash spins | Points are tied to real-money play; ask support if you are unsure how a bet was counted |
If one of these was steering how you play, it is worth adjusting before your next session rather than after.
Limits, 18+ and the real cost behind every VegasNow point
A point is a receipt for money staked. On pokies each one represents A$25 of turnover, an A$5 store bonus represents A$5,000, and the 600 status points of Golden Glimmer II represent A$15,000. Being close to a level or an exchange row should never prompt another deposit or a bigger stake.
Nobody under 18 may hold a VegasNow account. Deposit limits and self-exclusion, both set from inside your account, apply identically at every level, Sin City included, and our responsible gambling page shows how to set each one.

VegasNow VIP and loyalty: your questions answered
How do I earn VegasNow loyalty points?
Through real-money bets. On pokies, each A$25 you stake is worth one redeemable and one status point. Roulette needs A$100 of stakes per point, and blackjack and baccarat need A$250.
Do I still earn points in a losing session?
Yes. Points are counted on the amount you stake, not on what you win, so A$500 of pokie turnover earns 20 points whatever the result.
What is the smallest Loyalty Store exchange?
At Golden Glimmer, A$5 of bonus for 200 points. Holding out for 2,000 points brings A$60 instead, and rates improve with level, up to the published Bella Vista row of A$5,000 for 100,000 points.
Is a Loyalty Store bonus withdrawable as cash?
Not straight away. It lands as bonus funds with a 40× requirement to finish inside a week and an A$8 limit per bet. A 750-point exchange worth A$20 at Parisian Palace Las Vegas, for example, means A$800 of qualifying play.
What are the VegasNow loyalty levels called?
The seven levels take their names from Las Vegas venues. Golden Glimmer, in tiers I, II and III, is where everyone starts and Bella Vista is the top; Gondola Grand, Julius Palace and Parisian Palace Las Vegas are among the published names in between. The full ladder is in your account.
Does reaching a high level get me into Sin City?
Not on its own. We pick Sin City VIP Lounge members based on dedication and regular activity, and asking support about access is always fine.
Do Sin City members get higher withdrawal limits?
Possibly. Bigger withdrawals are among the benefits the lounge lists, and the general terms allow VIP accounts other withdrawal or daily limits, case by case. There is no published VIP figure, and verification still applies.
