FAQ

Rakeback is a percentage of your contributed rake that is refunded to you. Rakeback is offered through an affiliate who drives traffic to the online poker site. The affiliate is then given a percentage of the player’s rake. As an incentive to sign-up through their site, some affiliates offer this rakeback deal directly to the player.

The rake is how online poker rooms create revenue: By taking a portion of the pot as payment for spreading the game –usually around 5% of the pot with a cap at $3. Rake is also taken from tournament entries in the form of “fees” –usually 10% of the total buy-in. The amount of the rake varies by stakes and by poker site: Each site’s rake structure can usually be found in their rules or FAQ section.

Poker Bonus Codes are exclusive offers available only when you sign-up at a poker site through a certain affiliate. By signing-up through an affiliate the online poker room will offer you a special deposit bonus usually not advertised on their website.

Your MGR (or Monthly Gross Revenue) is your net rake. The amount of rakeback you receive is calculated through your MGR number. For example: if you are receiving 30% rakeback through one of our online poker rooms and raked $1,000 for the month, you would receive $300 in rakeback.

A poker room skin is an online poker site that uses another site’s software program with small graphical changes. By sharing software the different “skins” are able to combine player traffic and host more poker games. Each skin is a separate poker room that will offer its own promotions and incentive programs.
