    RTG comp points

    Do RTG casinos differ in the rates they award and redeem comp points? Either as standard, or as your VIP level increases?

    For people who don't want bonuses and all the hassles that go with them, or for casinos who don't want to risk being taken advantage of by bonus hunters it would seem a good way to reward players, but i've only ever seen the standard 0.1% offered, which is hardly very attractive.

    Excellent point. The rates are a little low, but rewards instead of upfront bonuses makes perfect sense to kill off the advantage players who are unprofitable.

    I know that the rates at Inter are between .1% and .45% depending on the game, and sometimes even the bet limit. In general, slots pay more and tables less, but the values on the tables (some of them) escalate when you play the higher minimum bet games. If you're going to play 25 or 100 BJ anyway, you might as well get the extra cashback.

    This is the problem, casinos use bonuses to attract players, and keep them, but offer derisory rates for their comp schemes. This leaves non-bonus players out in the cold, there is NOTHING on the table for them if they don't like the bonuses.

    Intercasino have a reward system in place, where you get a "bonus" only AFTER making the challenge, so you CANNOT play "abusively" by having an up front bonus. This often works BETTER, for a player who busts out, but finds they are only a short way off from making the reward, is VERY likely to deposit again and try to make it.

    Casino Titan have even only 0,05%, so you get there only $1 for 200 comp points and this is really very bad

    I think the problem lies in the fact that the first casino to kill deposit bonuses completely while the others are still offering them is in big trouble. If you could still bring in the new players and jack up the back-end rewards based on wagering, it would work better by equating more play with more benefits (i.e. cash). Abusers want to play as little as they have to while actual players deserve more rewards with increased play.

    Each RTG casino can set this. Some of us to have different levels for VIP players.

    Keep in mind is based on wagered amounts, so that coupled with bonus etc are usually a nice little token back. Many "VIP" ( in quotes because this can be interpreted many ways) players prefer no bonus but higher comp points. I suggest chatting to you favorite casinos CS.
