How the Fallsview Momentum Card Works

The Momentum card is issued at no cost at Guest Services, the help desk at either casino. Only people aged 19 and over can get it, and they need photo ID from a government. The card cannot be requested online; it is handed out at the desk.

From Sunday to Thursday, Guest Services at Casino Niagara, the help desk, runs from 10 a.m. until 11 p.m. Hours on Friday and Saturday are 10 a.m. to 1 a.m. To learn holiday hours, look at casinoniagara.com.

Momentum has five tiers, or levels: Core, Ignite, Leap, Ascend and Soar. The tier depends on Status Points earned in six-month periods. Put simply, your recorded play over half a year sets the level. The Tape desk does not list what each tier requires, because that is not published here.

Parking follows the tier at both casinos. It costs nothing for members at Ignite and above, and for Core members who have a parking offer. Everyone else pays for parking. Neither casino publishes its parking rates.

One Momentum Dollar equals $1. They can be spent on slot play, select dining, hotel stays and parking. Select dining means certain restaurants, which this guide does not list. Momentum Dollars cannot be cashed, so they never turn into money at the cage, the casino cashier window. They expire after 12 months without activity.

Sports bets at Casino Niagara sit outside this system. Those bets do not earn Momentum Dollars, and Momentum Dollars cannot be used to pay for them.

A shuttle runs between the two casinos every half hour from 4 p.m. to 12:45 a.m., with a break from 8 to 8:30 p.m. The last trip from Fallsview leaves at 12:30 a.m. It operates every Friday, Saturday and Sunday, and on OLG Stage show days. Show a Momentum card when boarding and the ride costs nothing; a partner hotel key card or a show ticket for OLG Stage or the Avalon works too. The partner hotels are Skyline Hotel & Waterpark, The Brock, Sheraton Fallsview and Clifton Victoria Inn at the Falls.
