How And When Of Poker Rakeback!
 What Is Poker Rakeback? This is a method of rewarding players by returning a percentage of the money that a poker site makes from you. This is usually between 27% and 40% and comes from the small ‘rake’ which the poker sites take from each big pot played.
Why Do Poker Sites Offer Rakeback Deals? By returning a percentage of the profit you earn the site they hope to ensure your loyalty for the long-term, creating a win-win situation.
How Much Can I Make With Poker Rakeback? This depends on both the amount of poker you play and the stakes which you play at. Tools known as rakeback-calculators can be used to provide good estimates. We have 2 to choose from:

How Can I Get A Rakeback Deal? You will need to go via a 3rd party (known as an ‘affiliate’ to get a poker rakeback deal. Rakeback-Planet is a leading affiliate and part of the larger 'Planet' group of quality sites. Simply choose the deal you are interested in and then follow the simple (but important) instructions concerning that particular deal. There is no reason you can not be earning rakeback within hours! Start from our homepage list of the Best Rakeback Deals.
Can I Switch An Existing Account To Rakeback? This depends on which site you play at, some sites are part of networks which means you can choose another site to access exactly the same tables. Others are more difficult – We have a dedicated Existing Account Rakeback page which explains all.
How Is My Rakeback Tracked And Paid? There are two methods, which one is used will depend on which poker rakeback deal you choose. Some sites handle rakeback internally, paying you directly through their own cashier system. Others use a 3rd party affiliate tracking system which you can log on to and cash out your rakeback any time. Where deals are direct with the rooom this is specified in our straight-forward sign-up instructions for each specific Rakeback Site.
Will Poker Rakeback Affect My Sign-up Bonus? Your rakeback will usually be reduced while you are clearing the bonus – however when you add the bonus and rakeback together your overall percentage will be higher. So, although having a rakeback deal might reduce you bonus clearance rate by 30%, your overall rebate of fees spent could be 55% while you are clearing (for example).
Are There Any Other Benefits To Rakeback? Yes, many of our poker rakeback deals come with associated ‘rake races’. These reward the players with the highest rake during a set period (often between 1 day and 10 days) and can add $100’s or even $1000’s to your profits over time. See our Best Poker Rake-Race information page for more.
