UK-Licensed
New to rakeback? Here's what this means for you

You're already paying a small fee (called rake) every hand you play, whether you notice it or not. Signing up through the link below gets a portion of that paid back to you — same games, same odds, just less left on the table. Read the full explainer →

GGPoker UK is a separately licensed instance of GGPoker built specifically to meet UK Gambling Commission requirements — British-facing traffic gets routed through this ring-fenced version rather than the main international room.

It shares the same software, game menu, and anti-HUD / anti-solver policy as the flagship GGPoker client, so the actual playing experience is effectively identical. The distinction is purely regulatory: separate licensing, separate player pool, same GG Network DNA underneath.

Deposits & Withdrawals

  • Cards (Visa/Mastercard), Apple Pay, and e-wallets (PayPal, Neteller, Skrill, ecoPayz, MuchBetter, and more)
  • Crypto deposits (BTC, ETH, USDT, USDC) carry no GGPoker fee beyond the network fee
  • Skrill and Neteller deposits carry a 3% fee; most other methods are free
  • Closed-loop withdrawals (same method used to deposit), flat $1 withdrawal fee, usually processed within 24 hours

Rake & Rakeback

Cash game rake caps by stake & table size (NL Hold'em / PLO)
Stakes2p3p4p5–9p
NL2 – NL50$0.50$1.00$1.50$3.00
NL100 – NL200$1.00$1.50$2.00$3.50
NL500+$1.00$1.50$2.50$4.00
  • Rake is deducted before the flop rather than after, like most rooms — but only on hands that actually see a flop; pots that end preflop (e.g. everyone folds to a raise) aren’t raked at all
  • On the higher side overall compared to most other networks on this page
  • Player Value Index (PVI) adjusts individual rake/rakeback based on playing behaviour and overall value to the network
  • Ocean Rewards loyalty program (replacing the older Fish Buffet system): Tide Points move you up in tiers, with effective cashback typically landing in the 20%–40% range for active players
+ Additional VIP rakeback from TableFinder — on top of this room's own program, players who sign up through me get extra negotiated rakeback that isn't available by registering directly.

From My Own Play

Currently the biggest online poker site in the world, and I enjoy playing there. The action runs around the clock — there's no real dead period, since GG operates across Asia, Europe, and parts of the Americas, so you can pretty much always find some weaker players.

The rake here is on the higher side; they compensate for it with promotions, but you still need to be careful and table-select a bit harder than you would on some other international sites where the rake runs lower.
