Online slot players who visit and play at the BetRivers.com sites in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Michigan and West Virginia are treated to a host of ongoing promotions, including seasonal, weekly and daily events that offer many chances to win extra Bonus Money awards.
BetRivers also has one of the best loyalty programs in the business, iRush Rewards. The club allows players to progress through multiple loyalty levels and earn points. Points can be used to redeem benefits in the iRush Rewards Bonus Store.
Points are accumulated based on real money wagered, and are based on the RTP configuration of each individual casino game. That’s the amount of all wagers returned to players as jackpots; it’s also known as payback percentage.
A player is awarded one point per $5 wagered on a casino game with an RTP of 95 percent. For example, if a casino game has an RTP of 94 percent, the player is awarded 1 point for each $4.17 wagered, or if a casino game has an RTP of 96 percent, the player is awarded 1 point for each $6.25 wagered.
The Bonus Store is a unique offering. It is a prize catalog of sorts, with a greater selection of prizes to redeem as your loyalty level reaches each new threshold.
But the points are only the start. Here are some of the current promotions offered at the BetRivers sites.
$50,000 Gold Riches Drawing
