Cross-marketing promotion will allow guests at each property to use their rewards points at all three locations
Uncasville, CT – In this case, three isn’t a crowd as Mohegan Sun in Connecticut, Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs in Pennsylvania, and Resorts Casino Hotel in Atlantic City will now offer guests a new way to use and earn their rewards points. Effective October 1st, the three properties will offer a cross-marketing promotion which allows guests to use their rewards points at any of the three properties. This comes after an announcement was made in August, that pending regulatory approval, Mohegan Gaming Advisors – a subsidiary of the Mohegan Tribal Gaming Authority which owns and operates Mohegan Sun in Connecticut and Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs in Pennsylvania – would take over management of Resorts Casino Hotel in Atlantic City.
“With both our properties in Connecticut and Pennsylvania, our approach has always been focused on the guest experience and ensuring that each time a guest experiences one of our exciting destinations, they leave wanting to come back and do it all over again,” said Mitchell Etess, Chief Executive Officer for the Mohegan Tribal Gaming Authority. “With the addition of Resorts, we are now able to expand and augment our unique offerings to include an iconic beachfront destination. It’s our hope that guests will really take advantage of this new platform to try one of our properties that they might have not considered in the past. The diversity of all three destinations provides a distinct array of offerings.”
Guests of all three properties will retain membership in their respective ‘home’ casino’s Player’s Club program, but will now be able to utilize the points earned at each of the properties to purchase an array of on-property offerings such as retail, dining, hotel accommodations, entertainment and more, simply by presenting their rewards card. Rewards points at all three properties will be used at a one-to-one ratio, meaning one point will be equal to one dollar for purchase.
Each property has unique attributes that can offer guests an exclusive experience – and when combined – create a one-of-a-kind program that will reward guest loyalty with a broader menu of amenities. Mohegan Sun in Connecticut is the Northeast’s premier entertainment destination and is home to over 75 shops and restaurants, top-ranked entertainment venues, a world-class spa, an 18-hole championship golf course and so much more. The pastoral and picturesque Pocono Downs area of Pennsylvania is the perfect spot to enjoy live harness racing, exciting table games and an array of culinary options. Plus, the iconic New Jersey Boardwalk, steeped in history and tradition, sets the stage for a beachfront experience at Resorts Casino Hotel.
With all three of the properties located within a four-hour drive and centrally located in one of the country’s most populous regions, guests are able to enjoy a quick getaway or relaxing vacation with only a moment’s notice at any of the three destinations.
