Best Poker Rakeback Deals

Every room advertises an "up to" number. Here's what sits behind it, and what a real volume player actually collects.

Rakeback comes from two places: the room's own loyalty program, which anyone can earn, and a deal negotiated on top of it through an affiliate like me. This page covers the first part honestly — the programs as they stand, including the ceilings you'll only reach with enormous volume and the realistic rates most regulars see. The second part isn't a table; it depends on where and how much you play, so message me and I'll tell you what's available for your room.

Every room's own program

Copied from the individual room pages. "Ceiling" is the top published tier; "realistic" is what an active but non-nosebleed regular tends to see.

How to read a rakeback offer

Flat beats "up to" for most people

A flat 27% with no conditions (WPN) is worth more to a part-time player than a ladder that tops out at 60% but pays 15% at your volume. Work out your realistic monthly rake first, then read the tier table at that line, not the top one.

Watch what resets

Most tiers are recalculated weekly or monthly, so a slow month drops you a level. SwC's Krill tiers are the exception — lifetime, never reset — which changes the maths for anyone who plays in bursts.

Behaviour-based rates

GG's PVI adjusts your effective rake and rewards according to how "valuable" the network thinks you are. Winning regulars who play tight tend to end up lower in the range; recreational-style play ends up higher. Nobody else on this list does this, so treat GG's numbers as personal, not fixed.

Cash, points or tokens

Rakeback paid in cash weekly (partypoker, 888) is worth face value. Points you convert later are usually fine. A token (Phenom's $PHNM) can be worth more or less by the time you cash it — that's a position, not a rebate.

Where the extra comes from

When you sign up through a tracked link, the room pays the affiliate a share of the rake you generate. A good affiliate hands most of that back to you as additional rakeback — on top of whatever the room's own program already pays. That's the whole model here: same games, same client, same loyalty program, plus a second payment you can't get by registering directly. Terms vary by room and by how much you play, which is why they're not in the table above. Two rules I keep to: the deal is on top of, never instead of, the room's program, and it's written down before you deposit.

Can I get a deal on an account I already have?

Usually not. Rooms attribute an account to whoever referred it at signup, and almost none will re-tag an existing account. If you already play somewhere, the realistic options are a deal on a room you haven't joined yet, or — where a network has several skins, like iPoker or WPN — a fresh account on a sister skin that shares the same player pool.

Does rakeback change my rake?

No. The room takes exactly the same rake from the pot whether or not you have a deal. Rakeback is a separate payment made afterwards, calculated from the rake attributed to you. The exception is GG's PVI, which is the room's own system and applies to everyone.

Which is better, low rake or high rakeback?

Neither on its own. What you pay is rake generated minus everything that comes back. A room with a $3 cap and 40% back costs you $1.80 on a capped pot; a room with a $2 cap and nothing back costs $2. Compare the caps on the rake page, then subtract what's on this one.

Are the club-app numbers real?

The percentages are real — 40–70% is normal — but they come from an agent, not a licensed operator, so the counterparty risk is entirely different from a regulated room. I play on several of these myself and only recommend agents I've been paid by, on time, repeatedly. More on how they work on the apps page.
