A Closer Look at the UB VIP Program
Welcome back! This time I intend to give detailed information about UB’s VIP program, RAI$E. Last time I confirmed that you earn Status Points to earn your UB bonus, but you’ll also have the chance to turn them into fantastic prizes due to the RAI$E program. Basically there are five VIP levels and as you climb the VIP levels, your rewards get better and better. When you join UB, you are automatically a member of the program.
When you first start playing at UB, you’re called an Ultimate Member and you’re at Level 1. Surprisingly, Ultimate Members still receive benefits such as entries to freerolls, the occasional reload UB bonus, and refer-a-friend bonuses. These perks definitely are helpful for doing nothing, but you should still increase your level as fast as you can because you’re missing out on a lot by just being an Ultimate Member.
If you earn 50 Status Points in one month, you become an Ultimate Player. At Level 2 you continue on with the Ultimate Member benefits such as the refer-a-friend UB bonus, but you also receive a few extra perks. First off, you are offered an UltimatePoints multiplier that increases the number of Status Points you are given by two so that you save up points at double the speed. This level gives you something to do with your points: spend them at the UltimatePoints Store. Even more points can be earned by playing in special UltimatePoints tournaments.
You become an Ultimate Contender at 500 Status Points, and you can receive up to $50 cash per month for Points. Your UltimatePoints multiplier raises to three and now you can buy special items from the store that you didn’t have access to at Level 2.
Once you earn 2,500 Status Points in a given month, you become an Ultimate Legend. You will have to see a large number of poker hands to get this high, but you’ll find that the benefits make the extra work worth it. You get an Ultimate Points multiplier of four and an additional 10% discount on all store merchandise. If you prefer the cash rewards, you can now redeem Points for up to $250. If that isn’t enough, Ultimate Legends also have access to a VIP host, a personal concierge, and exclusive freeroll entries. Sometimes you’ll get to bid on items in a special auction or you’ll get the occasional VIP treat.
And finally, at the very top, there’s the prestigious Ultimate Icon at Level 5. You will need to earn a whopping 10,000 Status Points per month, but UB will reward you handsomely. To start off, you get an UltimatePoints multiplier of five and you can redeem up to $1,000 per month in exchange for Points. For account balances over $1,000, you receive a 9% interest rate on the money. For even more perks, UB will extend invitations to play MTT poker in events around the world such as the WSOP! You are required to earn an average of 10,000 Status Points for half a year before you become an Ultimate Icon, and then you must keep this average going to remain at Level 5.
UB offers this VIP program to reward the people that play there regularly and to attract new players to make a UB download. Keep in mind that becoming an Ultimate Icon is very hard for the average player to do. If you decide to take the plunge and go for the top while playing low stakes, you’ll probably have to put in 100% of your playing time at UB so that you can earn the maximum number of points. If you can reach the top level, though, you’ve seen that it’s well worth it.
