One quirk of the Mlife program is that although slots generally provide a base point for every $3, there are some slots, dubbed “Specialty Slots,” that earn base points at a rate of $10/point. Some of them are obvious – popular licensed slots, and a handful of the newer, more popular games. One Base Point is not specifically defined at the table game level, but is equal to $3 bet on slots or $10 on video poker (at properties in Las Vegas). Some machines do not allow you to earn base points, such as video craps and other novelties, so always make sure you know where you expect to earn and where you plan to just have some fun.

Here is a simplified way to understand the different Tier levels, how you earn base points and tier credits, how they figure FREEPLAY(R) and Express Comps. I will continuously be update this page based on what I learn.

Here is the link to the Mlife page that describes the tier benefits. Each step of the way from Sapphire to Noir you gain incremental benefits.

Sapphire = Zero tier points to 24,999 tier points

• Pearl = 25,000 tier points to 74,999 tier points
• Gold = 75,000 tier points to 199,999 tier points
• Platinum = 200,000 tier points to unknown
• Noir = Unknown

Here is the link to the Mlife page that describes how you earn base points and rewards.

How to earn base points:

• For every $3.00 of coin in the Slot machine you will receive 1 base point.
• For every $10.00 of coin in a Video Poker machine you will receive 1 base point.
• Video Craps machines do not allow any coin in play to generate base points(there is usually small print describing this where you put your player cards in). Video Craps is a fun and great game it just doesn’t earn you base points.

Figuring out your Tier credits:

• You earn 10 Tier credits for every base point earned at M life destinations in Las Vegas.
• You earn 2 Tier credits for every base point earned at Beav Rivage or Gold Strike Tunica.
• You earn 1 Tier credits for every base point earned at MGM Grand Detroit.

Figuring out your FREEPLAY(R)credits(dollars):

• You earn $0.01 in FREEPLAY(R) for each base point earned.

Figuring out your Express Comp earnings:

• You earn $0.01 in Express Comps for each base point earned

You can earn accelerated base points(bonus points) based on the Tier level you obtain.

• Sapphire Tier Multiplier Bonus = 0% base point multiplier
• Pearl Tier Multiplier Bonus = 10% base point multiplier
• Gold Tier Multiplier Bonus = 20% base point multiplier
• Platinum Tier Multiplier Bonus = 30% base point multiplier
• Noir Tier Multiplier Bonus = 40% base point multiplier
