PokerStars rolled out significant changes to its Stars Rewards program earlier this week stating the new program makes it easy to win rewards tailored to you.

The Stars Rewards program still revolves around earning enough Reward Points to open chests, with each chest containing a cash prize. Six different levels of chests exist and contain prizes worth between $0.50 and $700.

Prizes in the chests have increased along with the expected value from each level, but it is now more difficult to reach the six different levels currently available.

Stars Rewards Chests

As you can see from the table above, Red and Platinum chests have been removed from the program and replaced with Diamond and Black. The Stars Group has not released the requirements to open each chest, although they did reveal the easiest point requirement for the Blue chest will be 350 reward points; previously, Red was the lowest chest and only required 150 reward points to open.

Point requirements for each chest depends on a player’s profile. A Stars Group spokesperson told PokerFuse, “Chest expected values have more than tripled. Point requirements are increasing anywhere from 2x up to 3x depending on the player’s profile.”

Blue chests now award $0.50 each time they are opened, with Black chests paying out up to $700. The new payout frequency for the highest payouts has been increased significantly from one in every 10,000 chests to one in 100 chests.

Players no longer move up and down levels based on a single session of poker. Instead, the new Stars Rewards program takes place over a 28-day period. Where in the old program players had to earn four chests in a single day to move up a level, the new system will see players climb to the next level after earning 10 chests over 28 rolling days.

Stars Rewards Spin & Go Tournaments

Some chests also contain a ticket to a special Stars Reward Spin and Go tournament where players can win up to $5,000. These tournaments play like any other PokerStars Spin & Go but are only available to those who have won a ticket through a rewards chest.

How to Earn Reward Points

Reward Points are earned across all The Stars Group products: poker, casino and sports.

Poker players earn 100 rewards points for every $1 paid in rake at Zoom, cash games or in tournaments, although only 45 reward points per $1 paid in scheduled tournaments following a move in February to reduce rewards for MTT players by 55 percent.

Players will not earn any reward points in pot-limit and no-limit cash games with blinds of $5/$10 or above, 8-game tables with stakes of $20/$40 or higher, or in other limit games with blinds of $20/$40 or above.

Casino games award a variety of different reward points depending on the game wagered on, while people placing bets at BetStars earn two reward points for every $1 wagered on single bets and 5.5 reward points for every $1 wagered on multiple and accumulator bets.

_{Note: Reward points will not be awarded for bets that are cashed out with a value equal to the initial bet amount}

PokerStars’ Director of Poker Innovation and Operations, Severin Rasset, claims the changes have been made after gaining a better understanding of how players engage with The Stars Group products. How the changes are received by the poker community, particularly the higher stakes players, remains to be seen.

Collect enough points to complete your progress bar and you’ll win a Chest loaded with rewards you’ll want to use - including StarsCoin and free play!

Get rewards you’ll want to use in the games you like to play, tailored to you, when you play for real money across all our available products.

Play for real money and earn reward points. Points fill your on-screen progress bar - complete it to win a Chest filled with personalised rewards, just for you.

Chests can be collected and opened before, during or after your session, and contain rewards that relate to the activities you enjoy! Rewards can range from StarsCoin that you can spend in the Rewards Store, to cash rebates and a variety of tickets and items tailored to you and the games you like to play. There are six different Chest types of increasing size and value.

Level 2: Bronze Chest

From $0.60 to $12

Level 5: Diamond Chest

From $12.50 to $250

You can manage all of your rewards in the ‘My Stars’ area of your account.

Win StarsCoin in Chests, which you use to play games or spend in the Rewards Store. Click here to learn more.

Earn enough reward points to complete your progress bar and you’ll receive your next Chest.

• Win at least one Chest in every rolling 28-day period to remain on your current Chest level.
• Win 10 Chests within 28 days and we’ll upgrade you to a bigger Chest, which will require more points to unlock but will contain bigger rewards on average (see above). Your progress bar will turn blue when you’re approaching an upgrade, and we’ll let you know exactly how long you have left to earn it.
• If 28 days pass and you have not won a Chest, your progress bar will reset and you’ll be moved down a level, where Chests will be easier to win but will contain a lower value of rewards on average. If you have completed at least 50% of your current progress bar, you’ll receive a Chest from your new, lower level. Progress bars on the Blue Chest level will reset after three calendar months of inactivity.

If you are at a higher level than the Blue Chests, you will be able to exchange your progress bar for a lower level Chest.

If you are eligible to exchange your progress bar, you will see the option available to you in ‘My Stars’.

If you play poker with us, your Chest may contain a ticket to play a Stars Rewards Spin & Go poker tournament.

Like regular Spin & Go’s, these three-player tournaments feature small starting stacks, blinds that rise quickly, and a winner-takes-all prize pool determined by a random spinner before play begins.

Here are the prizes you can win, as well as the probabilities of hitting each prize tier:

Reward point requirements depend on the Chest type you are playing towards, but are also personalised based on your profile. Some of the factors which impact points requirements are recent activity, game-type and net deposits.

You’ll earn reward points at different rates, depending on your gaming activity:

• Poker: Players earn 45 reward points for every USD $1 paid in fees for scheduled tournaments, and 100 reward points for every USD $1 paid in rake in Zoom or cash games or other tournament fees (130 reward points for every £1, 80 points for every CAD $1, and 110 points for every €1).
  • Players do not earn reward points at pot-limit and no-limit tables with blinds of $5/$10 or higher, 8-game tables with stakes of $20-$40 or higher, or other limit games with stakes of $20-$40 or higher.
• Casino: Reward points are earned at the point of wagering. Click here for a breakdown of earn rates by game-type, as well as how to earn redemption points playing Casino games (to clear bonuses).
• Sports: Reward points are earned when a bet is settled. For singles bets, players earn 1.1 reward points for every $1 wagered. For multiple/accumulator bets, players earn 3.1 reward points for every $1 wagered.
  • Bets made in non-USD currencies are converted to USD based on the mid-market exchange rate (as per XE.com) for reward point calculation purposes.
  • Reward points are not awarded for bets that are cashed out if the cashed out value is equal to the initial bet amount.
    • Example: if you bet $10 and cash out for $10, you will earn zero reward points. But if you bet $10 and cash out for more or less than $10, you will earn reward points.
