How often you get it does matter, as you will never earn as much on a weekly basis over the course of the year as opposed to one lump sum. Simple mathematics in the way Sky runs their rewards.
If players were payed a smaller amount weekly would they be more inclined to leave it on the site rather than taking a larger amount monthly and withdrawing most of it?
If you are getting the exact same amount of money regardless of when you choose to have it then i would pick weekly.. if you will receive a bit more value by taking it monthly/quarterly/annually then i would happily wait til the end of the year for a nice bonus.
you have to be incentivised to build your points up though, there is no point in having a cash out where the amount you get for 100 points is the same % rakeback as 10000.
if they are going to have a cashout button, they might as well have a points store. Where you can buy SKY merch, online and live tourney tickets, or cash.
yeah I like the idea of cashout that the players would be in full control of their own rewards and keep them building for weeks,months or for the year but also can withdrawn or even used to buy-in to mtt`s like spt`s,roller or ukops etc.
but tbh i`m not fussed it`s a bonus which is nice but don`t rely on it.
I don't think daily really should be an option. cant see any real benefit to come from that.
if they were to change I would be more inclined to vote for another option which is fortnightly or twice a month, I wouldn't go any shorter on the term than that. still gives a reasonable timeframe to build something meaningful to m ost players.
other than that why not roll out the "request an early payout" to all players and not just prio members, I know it takes away one of their perks but to me its not a huge one, keep it at only 1 request a month for all tho

Teddy and gazza: shame on the both of you
From the options, I say monthly. Give recreational players a chance to run up a reasonable amount which is most likely to be recycled onto the site.
The cashout button option sounds like the best idea on here though... make that one happen Sky!
