Caesars Rewards

Those visiting Caesars Southern Indiana are able to participate in the world-famous Caesars Rewards loyalty program. While practically every casino offers some type of VIP program, Caesars Rewards stands out as one of the best.

The program involves members earning both Reward Credits and Tier Credits whenever they play casino games or spend money on the property. They can similarly earn those credits at other Caesars properties, including Horseshoe Hammond, Horseshoe Indianapolis, and Harrah's Hoosier Park in Indiana.

Participants can redeem Reward Credits for free casino play at an exchange rate of $1 for every 200 Rewards Credits. Or they redeem those for other rewards, such as discounts at the hotel, spa, restaurants and shops. Poker players can even use Reward Credits to enter WSOP Circuit events, including those taking place at Caesars Southern Indiana.

When it comes to Tier Credits, members earn those whenever they play games or spend money at the property. The amount of Tier Credits you earn during the year determines your tier level. They are as follows:

• Gold: 0-4,999 Tier Credits
• Platinum: 5,000-14,999 Tier Credits
• Diamond: 15,000-24,999 Tier Credits
• Diamond Plus: 25,000-74,999 Tier Credits
• Diamond Elite: 75,000-149,999 Tier Credits
• Seven Stars: 150,000+ Tier Credits (invitation only)

The higher you go, the more rewards and other perks you can earn. These Tier Credits go back to zero at the start of each year, which means everyone goes back to Gold status every Jan. 1 and begins moving up from there.

Caesars Southern Indiana history

After Indiana legalized riverboat casinos in 1994, a division of Caesars partnered with Riverboat Development Incorporated to apply for one of the original casino licenses, which they received in 1996. A site was chosen in the southern part of the state on the Ohio River in close proximity to Louisville. On Nov. 20, 1998, the casino opened as Caesars Indiana.

Over the years, the property went through different owners and operators, starting with Caesars World. Later, it was run by Starwood Hotels and Resorts and Park Place Entertainment. In 2002, the state allowed riverboats casinos to dock permanently, and Caesars Indiana did so aside from once-a-year short cruises. In 2008, the property was rebranded as Horseshoe Southern Indiana.

A major renovation began in 2015 to create a land-based structure for the casino and expand the hotel. The hotel was completed in 2017, and on Dec. 9, 2019, the land-based casino was able to open, and the old riverboat was finally retired. At that opening, the property changed its name to Caesars Southern Indiana.
