Jackpot Factory Gold Card?

**EasyRhino** · 5th May 2007, 05:52 PM

I received a Gold Card in the mail from Jackpot Factory. Anyone else get these? Unfortunately, it's not a charge card. But it is "only awarded to a s4elect group of players, who've proven that they are as Good as Gold."

I am far from a high roller, but it came attached with a $10 bonus, so I didn't mind!

I got one too and I've maybe made 4 deposits throughout the whole group in the last year.. lol. Got $10 too and it was gone in about 10 seconds. Elementals let me down!

Curious to see what the Golden Email will be . I have always had good luck with this group .

If you have this card, it MIGHT mean you are shortly going to get into the VIP lounge. I did some high rolling in �2,000 prize tourneys and got booted upstairs after two months. I also remember getting a plastic card in the post.
This card may be different, and may be to encourage players who have not "misbehaved", even though they may have deposited modestly. JF have had trouble with their US players, as has pretty much every other casino, mainly due to a batch of screwed up payments between Feb and March.

It is still too early for US players to regain confidence (even with Gold cards etc), wait till after July when banks implement their final UIGEA measures, and see if casinos can still pay.

I have posted something I received from one of my banks that gives the impression that US banks are going to refuse a larger number of transactions from the 14th May, unless these transactions have FULL disclosure of source and personal ID details of the sender. Thus demand has even been ruled out of order under EU privacy rules, but the only option then is to not make a transaction to, or through, the US banking system.

How much did you guys wager before you got one of these cards? I have played at Jackpot Factory and made a couple of deposits in decent amounts. I am just wondering what kind of money you have spent at this online casino in deposits before you got the card?

For me, it was very, very little. Lifetime deposits throughout the whole group for me is under $1500. Recently I've probably deposited $200, if that. Mostly $30 and under. Maybe it's not deposit amounts they are going by, but loyalty? For now, having the card only meant I got $10 free. Still waiting for the rest of the "perks".

Ok, thanks for the heads up. If you get any other "perks" with the card, please send me a PM and let me know what you get.

This Gold card has now been mentioned in the promotion "Perfect Storm". The benefits seem to sit mid way between "Regular/New players" and the VIP Lounge. This looks like a mid level has been introduced, so that more players can be given a little extra without having to let them into the VIP lounge.
In this case, it increases the percentage they can get in this promotion, whilst VIP longe members get both the extra percentage given to Gold card holders, AND an extra amount of chips at this percentage.
No doubt, the Gold card will give enhanced benefits in other promotional events in the future.

I also got a card - I've been spending most of my Microgaming budget with Fortune Lounge lately, so I haven't deposited with Jackpot Factory for awhile. I was never a high roller there even when I WAS depositing, so I doubt it has anything to do with how much you've spent whether you get a card or not. I've never made a withdrawal there either, maybe THAT'S the criteria! lol

I didn't get one, but maybe thats because I more or less quit playing for a while. JPF is straight up in my book. Fortune Lounge needs to learn how to communicate with their customers imho. Not so humble maybe.
