Signing up for a slot club
Casinos strongly encourage new players to sign up for the slot club, and they make it simple. With just a few minutes of your time and a valid ID, you receive a shiny laminated card with your name on it (and usually a handy little key chain to fasten the card to your body.) Also, be sure and ask if there are any sign-up perks. Many casinos offer special deals to attract new players.
When you play the slots, simply insert your card into a card reader on the machine; the computer automatically tracks how long you play and how much you bet.
If you ever lose your card, which is very easy to do, just go back to the desk where you first signed up and ask for a duplicate. Or you may want to ask for an extra card to begin with, especially if your spouse also wants to play under your account or you intend to play two machines at once.
