Loyalty

Loyalty turns every wager into points and ranks, and the shop lets players spend them. How ranks, point campaigns, Lumio and the Plus, Pro and Ultra tiers work.

Loyalty is the long-term retention engine of your casino. Players earn loyalty points from their activity, climb through named ranks, and spend the points they have collected in a dedicated shop. It holds players over months and years.

What is the Loyalty system?

Loyalty is a points and ranks system with a shop attached to it. Every wager a player makes earns loyalty points, credited in real time. The player does not opt in: the system runs in the background.

As points accumulate, the player advances through ranks (Bronze, Silver and Gold, for example), and rank names, skins and point thresholds are configurable per casino. Each rank carries its own benefits, plus a one-time reward the first time a player reaches it.

A minimum activity requirement keeps inactive players from holding rank benefits indefinitely.

What does the player see?

Their rank progression, and a shop to spend points in. The shop is a catalogue of redeemable rewards: cash, bonuses, physical prizes, bundles, discounts, and limited-supply or seasonal exclusives.

Seasonal exclusives work a little differently. They are purchasable only with special seasonal points, and those points expire after a defined period.

Multiple point campaigns can run simultaneously, and the best campaign is applied automatically per wager.

Why does a loyalty programme matter for your casino?

Because it creates a persistent investment: a player most of the way to the next rank has a concrete reason to stay rather than switch casinos. The shop adds a second pull, turning points into visible goals the player is saving toward.

The combined effect is higher lifetime value and lower churn.

How does Lumio run Loyalty for you?

Lumio assesses your casino's player distribution across ranks and identifies where players stall, churn, or approach a milestone.

From that, Lumio recommends adjustments to point formulas, shop inventory and rank benefit structures. It also presents you with promotion options: a seasonal currency campaign to re-energise mid-tier players, for example, or a rebalanced points structure against the current rank distribution. You can read more about what Lumio does.

How does Loyalty work with your other engagement tools?

Loyalty points can appear as a reward in other features.

Those are examples, not a complete list.

What do you get on Plus, Pro and Ultra?

Each tier unlocks a slice of the full Loyalty capability.

TierWhat is included
PlusThe full multi-rank system, with a one-time reward collected on each rank achievement. No shop.
ProEverything in Plus, and featured campaigns that award accelerated points per amount wagered to selected players. No shop.
UltraEverything in Pro, and the full loyalty shop, where players redeem points for bonus funds (casino), free bets (sport), free spins, timed free spins, and free bonus buy.

The step from Plus to Pro unlocks campaign-driven accelerated earning: a targeted lever for re-engaging drifting segments. The step from Pro to Ultra unlocks the shop, turning points into visible goals. See pricing for how the tiers are packaged.

What is Loyalty not?

Loyalty is long-horizon progression: it is not a short-term mission and it is not an event (see Challenge, Tournaments).

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Do players have to sign up for the loyalty program?

No. Every wager earns loyalty points, credited in real time, and the player does not opt in. The system runs in the background.

What can players buy in the loyalty shop?

The shop is a catalogue of redeemable rewards: cash, bonuses, physical prizes, bundles, discounts, and limited-supply or seasonal exclusives. Seasonal exclusives are purchasable only with special seasonal points, which expire after a defined period. On Ultra, players redeem points for bonus funds for casino, free bets for sport, free spins, timed free spins, and free bonus buy.

Which tier do I need for the loyalty shop?

Ultra. Plus gives you the full multi-rank system, with a one-time reward collected on each rank achievement. Pro adds featured campaigns that award accelerated points per amount wagered to selected players. Neither of them includes the shop. Ultra includes everything in Pro plus the full loyalty shop, where players redeem points for bonus funds (casino), free bets (sport), free spins, timed free spins, and free bonus buy.

Can a player keep rank benefits forever once they reach a rank?

No. A minimum activity requirement keeps inactive players from holding rank benefits indefinitely. Rank names, skins and point thresholds are configurable per casino.

How does Lumio help with Loyalty?

Lumio assesses how your players are spread across the ranks and identifies where they stall, churn, or come close to a milestone. It recommends adjustments to point formulas, shop inventory and rank benefit structures, and presents you with promotion options, for example a seasonal currency campaign aimed at mid-tier players, or a points structure rebalanced against your current rank distribution.
