A:Buzztime designed the Players Plus® program specifically to recognize the loyalty of our most frequent users.

On the Players Plus® Menu, highlight "Join Player +" and press "Enter." Type in all the requested information, scrolling down as needed, until the form is complete.

Q:What is the three-letter Players Plus® code for my establishment?
A:The three-letter code is unique for each bar or restaurant. It helps Buzztime to differentiate between players with identical PIN numbers. In this manner, a player with PIN 1111 at Bar A has a different account than another player with PIN 1111 at Bar B. To find out what your 3 letter code (Also known as Site Alpha Code) go to the Site Finder and enter the city or postal code your location is in. Click on the name of your location. Your site location code will be featured on the site details page.

Back to the top

Q: How do I play at other establishments and still earn Players Plus® points?
A:By using your full Players Plus® PIN and your handle, you can play at any Buzztime location. Because you are a traveling Players Plus® member, the remote location will not keep a record of your account and will therefore display 0 points for the day. However, your point totals will appear at your home establishment. Players Plus® points awarded to a member playing at a location other than his or her registered site will be updated over a six-week period at the player's home location.

Back to the top

Q: Why do I have to enter my handle when I'm playing at a remote location?
A:When you are playing at your home establishment, the computer recognizes your handle because your Players Plus® account is stored in that location's system - that is why you only need to enter a portion of your PIN when playing at your home location. When playing at a location other than your home, you must enter your full PIN and handle. You should enter the handle that appears on your file to ensure you receive the points earned. In essence, you are entering a temporary file. That PIN is then called into our database and matched up with its primary account.

Back to the top

Q: I only use 4 numbers to sign in when I play but the website wants 7. Why isn't my pin working?
A:Your full pin is a combination of two things. The 4 digits you use to log on to a Playmaker and your site's 3-letter location code (i.e. 1234ABC). You must enter the full 7 digits to log in to the website or a location other than your home location. If you do not know your home site's location code (Also known as the Site Alpha Code) go to the Site Finder and enter the city or postal code your location is in. Click on the name of your location. Your site location code will be featured on the site details page.

Back to the top

Q: How do I transfer my Players Plus® account to another location?
A:If you haven't created a new Players Plus® account at the new site, use the transfer page to change your home site PIN, or Handle. Your Players Plus® PIN may be in use at the new location - if it is already in use, you'll have to select another PIN. Your new PIN should start working within a few minutes.

If you have already created a new Players Plus® account and you'd like to merge your points, let us know.

Q: Why haven't my Players Plus® travel points updated?
A:Players Plus® points awarded to members playing at a location other than their registered site will be updated over a six-week period at their initial registration location.

Back to the top

Q: Will I be able to see my point total at a remote location?
A:No. Your point totals only appear at your home establishment.

Q: How do I log in at a location other than my home location?
A: You can log in as a visitor at any location across the Buzztime Network by typing in your full 7 digit pin (i.e. 1234ABC). Please allow up to six weeks for travel points to be updated to your regular account.

Back to the top

Q: My pin still doesn't work and I am entering all 7 digits (i.e. 1234ABC)
A: It is possible that you are using the wrong location code (Also known as the Site Alpha Code). To ensure you are using the right location code please go to the Site Finder and enter the city or postal code your location is in. Click on the name of your location. Your site location code will be featured on the site details page.

Q: I became a Players Plus® member today but cannot log into the website.
A: Please allow 4 - 7 days from when you first become a Players Plus® member before you attempt to log into the website. This will allow ample time for your account to be added to our system.

Back to the top

Q: I have moved and would like to change my home location and keep my points. How can I do this?
A: First you will need to register as a member at your new establishment. Once you have created the new account, contact us and we can transfer your old Players Plus® account into your new account. Please wait 3 to 4 business days before contacting us with your old Players Plus® pin number, new Players Plus® pin number, full name, and handle(s).

Back to the top

Q: I heard it is against the rules to have more than one Players Plus® account. Is that true?
A: You are only eligible to win prizes with one account. There is no benefit to having multiple accounts. By using your full 7 digit pin (i.e. 1234ABC) you can log in at any location throughout the Buzztime Network so it is unnecessary to have more than one account. If you currently have more than one account and would like to consolidate your points into one account please contact us and let us know. Duplicate accounts may be deleted without notice to the member.

Back to the top

Q: Why do you need personal information such as address and phone # on my Players Plus® account?
A: Players Plus® information is never sold or shared with a 3rd party. It is necessary to have your address on file so we know where to send your prize if/when you win.

Back to the top

Q: I had an account 6 years ago I forgot about. I recently remembered the pin. I would like to transfer the points to my current account. Can this be done?
A: The Players Plus® program is Buzztime's Frequent Player program. Once an account becomes inactive for more then one year it is subject to deletion. The Players Plus® accounts must be kept active to remain in the database. It is unlikely that these points will be in the system.

Back to the top

Q: I have lost my handle and pin. Can you find them for me?
A: I'm sorry without that information it is not possible to find your account in the system. You are welcome to rejoin Buzztime and start a new Players Plus® account.
