  • Visit any participating Accel Entertainment location to sign up via the AE Player Rewards kiosk.
  • If you entered the Mind Blowing Giveaway or any previous Accel Entertainment sweepstakes, your profile screen will pop up after you enter your phone number. This is an opportunity for you to edit your profile if anything has changed since the previous giveaway(s). After you fill everything out, click Submit. You are now registered and have entered AE Player Rewards for the first time.
  • If you’ve never participated in an Accel Entertainment giveaway before, you will need to fill out the entry form in its entirety, which should take no more than five minutes. Once done, press Submit. You are now registered and have entered AE Player Rewards for the first time.
  • Log in to your AE Player Rewards account either on your mobile app or desktop. Once logged in, click on the menu (three white lines) in the upper left corner of your screen. Then select the Profile menu option. Update any necessary information. Finally, click the Submit button at the bottom to save your changes to your player profile.
  • Sign up for your FREE membership via AE Player Rewards mobile app or kiosk at any participating location.
  • AE Player Rewards Status Levels (Member, Silver, Gold) are based on check ins made over a designated period, or by exclusive invitation or Instant Win opportunity.
  • AE Player Rewards Members can check in once an hour at participating locations.
  • Rewards Members earn one Status-Level Credit with every check in.
  • Rewards Members also earn an entry(ies) into the current prize period giveaway with each earned Status-Level Credit from a check in via the AE Player mobile app or AE Player kiosk at participating locations.
  • The number of giveaway entries a Rewards Member earns for each check in is based upon their current Membership Status Level.
    • Member: 1 Status-Level Credit = 1 entry into current prize period giveaway and quarterly status-level giveaway
    • Silver: 1 Status-Level Credit = 2 entries into current prize period giveaway and quarterly status-level giveaway
    • Gold: 1 Status-Level Credit = 3 entries into current prize period giveaway and quarterly status-level giveaway
  • The more check ins you earn, the more bonus advantages you receive!
  • AE Player Rewards Members can view their Status-Level Credits and giveaway entry counts on the AE Player app or log into their profile through a desktop.
  • Multiplier Days are designated by the AE Player Rewards program that allow Members to gain additional Status-Level Credits and giveaway entries with each check in.
    • Example 1: Amber, Member Status, checks in on a triple multiplier day. Amber would receive three status-level credits, three entries into the current prize period giveaway, and three entries into the quarterly status-level giveaway.
    • Example 2: Steve, Gold Status, checks in on a double multiplier day. Steve would receive two status-level credits, six entries into the current prize period giveaway and six entries into the quarterly status-level giveaway
  • Monthly cash giveaways: Northern and Southern Illinois winners will be chosen for each prize period.
  • Quarterly status-level giveaway: A total of six winners — each of the three Status Levels will have one Northern and one Southern Illinois winner.  
  • Instant Win opportunities throughout the prize periods, including automatic status upgrades!

  • AE Player Rewards Status Levels (Member, Silver, Gold) are based on check ins made over a designated period, or by exclusive invitation or Instant Win opportunity.
    • Member Status Level: 0-50 Status-Level Credits
    • Silver Status Level: 51-250 Status-Level Credits
    • Gold Status Level: 251+ Status-Level Credits
  • Rewards Members earn one Status-Level Credit with every check in.
  • Membership status is evaluated at the end of each Status-Level Earn Period.
    • Status-Level Earn Period 1: March-June
    • Status-Level Earn Period 2: July-September
    • Status-Level Earn Period 3: October-December
  • Membership status is maintained at the start of a new Status- Level Earn Period, but Status-Level Credit balances are reset to zero.
    • Example: Amber hits Gold Status in Earn Period 1. In Earn Period 2, Amber will still be Gold Status.
  • Rewards Members must again continue to check in to earn the needed amount of Status-Level Credits within the new earn period to maintain their status level.
    • Example: Amber begins Status-Level Earn Period 2 as Gold. At the end of September, Amber has 240 Status-Level Credits. Amber did not meet the 251 needed credits for Gold again, therefore, Amber will be Silver Status at the start of Status-Level Earn Period 3.


  • The AE Player app is a tool for you to enter into AE Player Rewards when at a participating location to earn entries into current prize period giveaway and quarterly status-level giveaway. You can also use the app to see your progress in AE Player Rewards. You can see how many entries you have received and your progress toward raising your Status Level.

  • After downloading the AE Player app, type in the phone number associated with your profile. This will be the same number that you enter on a kiosk when making a check in. In the Password box, enter the password you created when you originally set up your profile. Once complete, hit Log In.

  • Kiosk: While at a participating Accel location, walk up to the AE Player Rewards kiosk, type in your phone number and press Enter. If this is the first time you are checking in to AE Player Rewards, follow the prompts to fill out and complete your profile.

Once the internet connection has been restored, your check-in will be logged to the database. If you have the AE Player app, you can verify your check-in history under the Entries menu option.
  • If there is an error while checking in, or you think the kiosk is not working, please inform a staff member so they can report the issue.
  • If your app is crashing, it may be because there is an app update ready to be downloaded in the Google Play or App Store. Check to see if an update is available and download if so. If an update is not available, try deleting the app and re-downloading it. If your app is still crashing, contact Accel’s 24/7 Service Solution Center at (888) 97-ACCEL and let them know what is going on.

AE Player Rewards - Prize Related FAQs

  • You will be notified via the phone and/or email you used to complete your player profile. A representative from our third-party verification company — EventLink — will be in contact within 48 hours of you being selected as a winner. You then have 48 hours after being contacted to return the representative’s call and/or email. You will be subject to a vetting and verification process to ensure Eligibility Requirements have been met.
  • You will be required to complete and return an Affidavit of Eligibility, Liability Release, and Publicity Release (“Affidavit/Release”). Once complete, a representative will process the materials and mail the applicable prize to you. If you: (1) provide false, inaccurate, or incomplete information on the entry form; (2) are otherwise disqualified pursuant to these Official Rules; or (3) fail to sign and return the Affidavit/Release within the required time period, the prize will be forfeited, and it will be awarded to an alternate, randomly selected Winner (also subject to verification).
  • You will get paid once you have been contacted and verified through our vetting process. A representative from our third-party verification company — EventLink — will be in contact within 48 hours of you being selected as a winner. You then have 48 hours after being contacted to return the representative’s call and/or email.

  • You failed to sign and return vetting and verification information within 48 hours of receipt.

AE Player Rewards - Punch Card FAQs

  • Participating locations have the option to offer a digital punch card via the kiosk and AE Player app. This punch card offers an additional prize provided by that location once you have completed all the digital punches. Not all participation locations offer a punch card option.
  • To earn a digital punch, simply check in through the kiosk or AE Player app like you would for the giveaway. If you are at a location that is offering a punch card and you check in, a virtual punch card with a completed punch will come up on your screen. You can earn one punch a day until you have reached the required number of punches to complete the punch card and earn the reward. Once you have completed a punch card, let a staff member know so they can verify and award the prize.
  • Check the location’s social posts or ask a staff member if they are participating to see if a location is utilizing punch cards without actually having to enter.
  • You can ignore the punch card and choose not to redeem your card once you have met the required number of punches. This will not block you from being able to submit other entries for AE Player Rewards.

Slot Machine FAQs

To get your money from your video gaming terminal (VGT), you must cash out on the machine and print a Cash Out Voucher. From there, take this voucher to the redemption terminal and insert it into the machine. If an error occurs and you are unable to get your money, here are a couple things to try:

  • Enter the validation number manually. The scanner on the Redemption Terminal may be working improperly.
  • Call Accel’s 24/7 Service Solution Center at (888) 97-ACCEL. Someone from Accel’s Service Center may be able to “unlock” the voucher remotely.
  • Ask the establishment manager for a Facility Pay Form to complete. Additional steps on what to do next will be listed on this form.
  • Cash Out Vouchers are valid for 365 days.
  • Notify a location employee. They will be able to call Accel’s 24/7 Service Solution Center at (888) 97-ACCEL and explain the issue. Accel’s Service Center may be able to remotely repair the machine while on the phone. For repairs that can’t be serviced over the phone, one of Accel’s Technicians will be out at the location as soon as possible.
