Crown VIP membership refers to the highest, most exclusive tier in the Crown Rewards loyalty program—formally known as the Black Tier. Unlike standard membership tiers, Black Tier status is not achieved through Status Credits alone; it is by invitation only and is reserved for Crown’s most loyal and high-value customers. This status is the casino’s equivalent of a “Diamond” or Black Card found in other luxury loyalty programs.
Loyalty and active participation in gaming and hospitality are critical for consideration. The program’s structure is designed to reward those who consistently engage with Crown’s venues, particularly in gaming activities.
Status Credits are the currency for qualifying and retaining membership tiers in Crown Rewards. They are earned by converting points from gaming, hotel stays, dining, and events according to fixed ratios:
Category | Points Required per Status Credit |
---|---|
Casino Points | 500 |
Hotel Points | 1,000 |
Food & Beverage/Events | 1,500 |
Status Credits are tallied over a 12-month membership cycle. Your tier is reviewed annually on October 1, and upgrades occur automatically upon reaching the required number of Status Credits.

Crown Rewards has five membership tiers, each with distinct benefits and requirements. While the first four are attainable by earning the required Status Credits, the ultimate Black VIP tier is by invitation only.
Tier | Status Credits Required (per cycle) | Key Benefits |
---|---|---|
Member | Entry-level; no Status Credits | Basic rewards, earn points |
Silver | 5 | Free parking (24h with 1 point earned), Riverside Room access, 10% hotel/spa discount, welcome gift |
Gold | 20 | Free multi-level/basement parking, Teak Room access, 15% hotel/spa discount, discounted valet |
Platinum | 85 | Mahogany Room/Teak Room with host, free valet, 20% hotel/spa discount, VIP telephone concierge, “Platinum Reward” |
Black (VIP) | Invitation Only | All lower tier perks, plus undisclosed exclusive benefits, potential personal host for Crown Sydney VIP Casino Members |
As you ascend through the tiers, rewards become increasingly substantial. Platinum offers the most publicly detailed perks for standard members, including luxury lounge access, free valet, and a 20% discount on spa and hotel services. The Black (VIP) tier extends these privileges and adds “much more,” details of which are kept confidential and tailored to the individual, often including a personal host and bespoke services.
Invitation to Black Tier is not publicized or standardized. It is not based on a fixed number of Status Credits or points, unlike other tiers. Instead, Crown’s management extends invitations to individuals who demonstrate exceptional loyalty, high levels of gaming activity, and significant engagement with Crown venues over time. The process is opaque, but it is understood that both casino spend and regular patronage are key factors.
Crown VIP membership (Black Tier) represents the zenith of the Crown Rewards program, offering unparalleled access, services, and rewards. While the lower tiers are attainable through measurable Status Credits, VIP status is reserved for Crown’s most valued guests—those who combine significant gaming activity with long-term loyalty, as judged by Crown’s discretion.
For individuals aiming for this exclusive tier, consistent high-value engagement across Crown’s resorts—particularly in casino gaming—is essential, though the ultimate decision remains at Crown’s invitation only. Aspiring VIPs should focus on maximizing their engagement, knowing that the most lavish rewards are reserved for those who rise above even the Platinum threshold.
