To learn more about this offer please go to our Full Tilt Poker RakeBack page or our RakeBack Promotions page.

RakeBackCodes is GPWA Approved

We are pleased to announce that RakeBackCodes is now GPWA.org approved. This a great honor and we are pleased that they have given us the approved site emblem.

RakeBack Definition

We get several emails a day from people asking what the rakeback definition is. So we thought it would be a good idea to help explain the definition of rakeback. When you play a hand of poker the poker site will take a percentage of the total pot as their fee for hosting the game, this is called the rake. Take a look at the image below for an example of rake being taken from the pot. As you can see the 3 25c chips at the top; that is the rake.

Now let’s explain what rakeback really means. As a registered member of RakeBackCodes you will sign up for a poker site using one of our affiliate links. Since you used our affiliate links your new account will be linked to ours. Now since you’re linked to our account we can then provide you with rakeback.

When you play a raked hand of poker all players will contribute to the pot. The total rake is then divided by the number of players at the poker table and then each player earns their share of the rake. We give you a piece of that amount back in the form of rakeback. There are currently 3 different ways to calculate rakeback. Poker sites will either use the dealt, weighted contributed, average contributed rake method. Each method will change the amount of rakeback that you earn in a given time frame.

Full Tilt Poker Rake & Player Points

We have just been informed by Full Tilt Poker that they have changed the way that they calculate rake. We are pleased to announce that Full Tilt Poker is now calculating rake on the Weight Contributed method. The Weight Contributed method is essentially the industry standard and almost all poker sites calculate rake this way. We are very pleased that Full Tilt Poker has finally changed to this fair calculation. All rakeback players will now earn a fair share of rake and rakeback each month based off of the actual play. Previously Full Tilt Poker was using the Dealt rake method and that method encouraged a player to just fold. This new method encourages players to play because Weight contributed is based off of the actual amount of rake that you contribute to the pot.

We also are pleased to announce that Full Tilt Poker has changed the way that Player Points are earned. Now every table for each poker hand will be given 10 Full Tilt Poker Points and those 10 points will be equally contributed to each player that is dealt a hand. You can also now earn Full Tilt Poker Points on all cash games, multi-table tournaments & sit and go’s that take a fee. Please remember that when you use your player points it will be deducted from your rake figure which in turn will be deducted from your rakeback.

Full Tilt Poker Black Card

We are pleased to announce a brand new poker promotion from Full Tilt Poker. This program is called the Full Tilt Poker Black Card. This is all about rewarding the very best players with some unique and amazing offers. In order to be eligible for this program you must generate a minimum of 500 Full Tilt Points over a average 100-day rolling period. Once you hit it you will receive your Black Card and once you get this you will not be disappointed. This black card program will give you 2x points, access to an amazing vip black card store and best of all a personalized customer service email address. You will have your very own contact at Full Tilt Poker. Plus you can also use your Full Tilt Points to convert them into cold hard cash. If you have a Full Tilt rakeback deal through us then you will essentially be earning more than just 27% rakeback. In our view anyone who has a rakeback deal through RakeBackCodes.com will be extremely happy with this new program.

Factors for your RakeBack Deal

We went on over to PokerScout.com and viewed the top poker sites in regards to actual cash game players. One important thing to think about when you sign up for a rakeback is the player pool. The bigger the player the pool the better chance you have at sitting with a few fish at the table. As we all know fish are the life blood of good poker players. If you’re thinking about or are currently getting a rakeback deal there is a good chance that you’re a really good poker player. We are always looking to offer the best deals possible for our players. So let’s take a look at the top poker rooms and the corresponding rakeback deal:

1) Poker Stars – VIP program up to 32%

2) Full Tilt Poker – 27% rakeback

3) Party Poker – VIP program up to 40%

4) iPoker – VIP Program

5) OnGame Network – VIP program up to 40%

6) Cereus Network – 30% rakeback

As you can see the rakeback and VIP programs vary greatly from all 6. What you need to do is factor in the rakeback amount as well as the player base. Here are the actual cash players for each poker room:

1) Poker Stars – 32,000

2) Full Tilt Poker – 17,100

3) Party Poker – 5,000

4) iPoker – 3300

5) OnGame Network – 4000

6) Cereus Network – 1500

You can see how they vary greatly from Poker Stars with over 32,000 and then Cereus Network at just over 1,500. So when you’re looking for your next deal just make sure that you take a peek at the actual poker cash players and then decide from there.

We at RakeBackCodes.com are committed to helping players find the best deals and offering outstanding customer service.

Why Get RakeBack?

If you are new to poker you may be asking yourself why on earth should I care about rakeback? You should care about rakeback because it’s basically free money that you’re missing out on. When you play a raked hand at an online poker site the poker site makes money by taking a piece of the total pot. When the poker site takes a piece of the pot, it’s called rake. Let’s say there are 6 players playing at the table and the poker site takes a rake of $3. That $3 gets divided by 6 and it comes out to $0.50. That $0.50 is the rake that you generated the poker site for that single hand of poker. Now imagine you play about 10,000 hands a month, now that comes out to $5,000 a month in rake that you generated the poker site. Now imagine that you could get a piece of that $5,000 back each month! Wait you can and that is exactly what rakeback is. Let’s say you sign up for a 30% rakeback deal so you would get 30% of the $5,000 number. If you had a rakeback deal set up you would have earned $1,500 on top of whatever winnings you may have won while playing poker.

Rakeback is a must have for anyone that is serious about playing poker. This is free money that you leave on the table if you do not have a rakeback deal setup.
