Both Agua Caliente and Palm Springs Spa use the same Paradise Rewards Club. Database should show: Slots $1 coin-in earns 3 points. For video poker $2 coin-in earns 3 points, with 1000 points=$1 in comps. (NOTE: Isn't that .0015 comp rate?) Platinum status is 150000 points earned in 6 months. Black status is 375000 points in 6 months. Red status is 1500000 points in 6 months (comparable to Harrahs' Seven Stars tier). Players can choose that points be converted to free play instead of used for food, retail, etc.. There is no cash back. Points are redeemable for 13 months. Account is deactivated if no activity within that time. Paradise Club 2009 Update-You must use up all points in your account before hosts will comp anything (similar to Harahs) unless you are at Red or Black Level (over $250K coin-in during any six months).

New sign-ups get a deck of playing cards. High Limit Deuces reduced to dreadful 20/12 paytable. Jacks by Oasis Buffet is all 8/5. The Multi-Strike I saw was severely short-pay for every game. Spa (according to a security guard) no longer offers a complimentary shuttle to Agua Caliente which I never knew they had anyway. Hosts are now required to use players points for comps down to a zero balance before they will give you anything. So it is now a la Harrahs. But this new rule is waived if you are at higher tiers (over 250K coin-in in 6 months). Or if you complain and persist like I did.
