We found this one in our Facebook Community, Award Travel 101 — Caesars Entertainment has introduced a new Total Rewards card, the Total Rewards Salute card, especially for military personnel and veterans. The #1 perk is complimentary Platinum status with the Caesars Total Rewards loyalty program.
Who Is Eligible For The TR Salute Card?
- Active duty military
- Members of the Army National Guard and the Air National Guard
- Members of the Army Reserve, Navy Reserve, Marine Corps Reserve, Air Force Reserve and Coast Guard Reserve
- All veterans
- All military and veteran spouses
Key Features Of The Card
- Military discounts at hotels
The complimentary Platinum status comes with a host of benefits including:
- Special pricing at restaurants
- A complimentary stay at Atlantis, Paradise Island in The Bahamas
- Complimentary self and valet parking at many destinations
- A 5% discount on Hawaiian Airlines flights
- Pre-sale access for shows
- Discounts at casino gift shops
How To Apply
The application requires you to head over to one of Caesars’ 40 resorts and apply in person. You will need to supply supporting military ID or veterans card with your application. Cards accepted for verification include:
- Active Military IDs
- National Guard IDs
- Reserves IDs
- Retired Military IDs
- DD214 and Veteran Cards
Our Take
This is an easy way for Caesars to thank our military families for their service. The discounts and benefits are a great way for Caesars to potentially drum up some business, while at the same time saving a few bucks for the folks that dedicate their work and life in service of our country.

I just heard about Salute. will be a member shortly.
Is the Platinum status automatically renewed each January ?
Do the points earned during the year expire each January ?
Is there any way to register for this online or via email? Looking to go to Atlantis and would love to use the perk, but I’m not near any other Ceasar’s property.
Hi Pam,
I know this is a late reply but here goes…Their terms state that you will need to visit a Caesars property in order to obtain the card. You would need to bring either valid ID or DD214.
Very nice! I think I’ll have to look into this!
Just got mine today. A nice little perk for Vets
Was it easy for your spouse to get one too? Wondering what they need for documentation.
I’m never unhappy when good will gestures are extended to those who can benefit from them.
This seems like a nice gesture for service members.
I’ve read the article and visited the website but all I see is that the Platinum status is complimentary…but how much is the annual cost of the card?
The card is free.
Nice to see companies going out of their way for the men and women who serve in the armed forces
The Beach Towers that are in the included 2 night stay are the entry level accommodations if I am not mistaken. Perhaps good for a family get away with included access to the water park. If you were going to have fun, I’d probably aim for the higher level accommodations.
I hate to rain on everyone’s parade, but FYI. TR started this program back on Veteran’s day last year (2017), we saw the ad and having served in the Army, went to get my card. Two, things. I did not retire from the military, but did serve and have proof of service, so they had no problem giving me a card, but they did not want to extend the card to my wife as she did not have proof of service?? Unless I retired from the military, my wife would not have any military ID. I had to speak to a supervisor, and then the General Manager to get it worked out, thankfully they finally obliged. Lastly, the Platinum status on my card states “valid until Jan 31, 2018” and this is repeated on the TR Play App. Does someone have information indicating that the upgrade of status will be indefinite or permanent? Otherwise, this is only a temporary gesture/promo.
I’ve confirmed they’re extending the Atlantis benefit with Platinum — my assumption is that they’ll continue the Salute benefits — but I’ve reached out to confim as well.
Locally they could not answer the question for me, they said they would have to check with corporate and get back to me, which they never have. It would be great if you could find out for everyone! Thanks.
At least they appreciate the military in some countries for their contribution to society.
A very interesting popup perk to the military. I do love the comment about increasing the win percentage for military! lol!
Our veterans deserve every discount they receive.
Sounds interesting! Hoping they’ll expand eligibility soon!
Nice to recognize the men and women that protect us!
Perhaps Caesar’s could increase the win percentage for veterans.
LOL. Yeah, right.
Good for military personnel.
ALL financial firms should give a little to our protectors.
good perk but it waters down Platinum status even more
Nice one. Maybe it will spread?
Glad to see them taking care of those that protect us.
It’s nice to see they are offering special privileges to those in the military.
The web site says that Atlantis is expiring in two days. Will that be extended?
We’ve reached out to get an answer and will let you know what we hear back.
It’ll be extended and updated on their website as of Feb 1, 2018.
that is fantastic. more companies should be doing things for our servicemen and women
Platinum certainly doesn’t give you too much, but it’s a nice touch for those that serve (good PR too of course).
Nice to see rewards given to our military. Maybe other cards should sit up and take notice.
Thanks for the heads up!
