Beginning in 2013, tournaments were awarded Official World Golf Ranking points, with a minimum of six points to the winner and points to the top six plus ties. Most of the tournaments are played in Malaysia, Thailand, Taiwan and Indonesia, with tournaments in these being co-sanctioned with the Professional Golf of Malaysia Tour, the All Thailand Golf Tour, the Taiwan PGA Tour and the PGA Tour of Indonesia respectively.
For the 2014 season, the ADT changed its policy to award Asian Tour cards to the top five players on the Order of Merit, an increase from three in previous seasons. This was increased to seven for the 2018 season. For the 2020–22 season, the top ten were awarded Asian Tour cards for the following season.
