How we research poker rewards

What we compare

We describe reward mechanics using public operator materials where available: how attributed rake is counted, what rewards can be redeemed, when a threshold resets and whether the advertised percentage is a maximum. We avoid a numeric ranking when programs use different definitions.

Where the details come from

The room pages link to official program explanations or terms. Historical claims about retired rooms link to dated reporting or statements from the operator that acquired the old accounts. The room notes on this site were researched for 3 November 2026. Offers can change without notice, so a visitor should check the current rules on the operator's own licensed domain.

What we have not verified

We have not logged in to individual player accounts to check personalised reward rates, performed real-money play tests or verified location-specific access for every country. We do not claim to have done so. Calculators show arithmetic based on user-entered assumptions, not live offers.

How this site is funded

The links in this edition point directly to relevant operator information and do not use referral tracking parameters. We do not process deposits, arrange player accounts, hold balances or provide paid poker games. Future commercial relationships, if introduced, should be clearly identified.

Privacy and the free games

The downloadable version of this site has no analytics scripts, advertising trackers, cookies, user accounts or contact form. The calculator and card games run entirely in your browser. Scores and form inputs are not sent to our server by the supplied JavaScript. A future deployed version should update this description if tracking, forms or other services are added.

Responsible play

Rakeback reduces eligible fees only when a player qualifies. It cannot guarantee profit. Local laws and minimum ages determine whether real-money poker products are available. The two games hosted here use no financial stakes.

Corrections and review rules

The publication identifies its own calculation assumptions and links to the source used for operator-specific claims. A snapshot date tells you when the page was reviewed; it does not certify that a changing promotion remains available to every account. When a source is inaccessible in a region, the text says so rather than inventing an equivalent rate. The site has no named individual expert or independently tested player accounts, and does not claim either.

We preserve stable URLs for revised topics, update material facts when official rules change and avoid generating separate near-identical pages for minor keyword variants. Historical poker brands remain in a clearly labelled archive instead of being mixed into live comparisons.

How the calculations can be checked

Every illustrative return can be recalculated from fees and reward values given in the text. The free calculator runs locally in the browser and does not use operator APIs. Some published programs involve thresholds, lotteries or tier conversions that a basic percentage model cannot express. See the rake allocation explanation and worked examples for assumptions and counterexamples.
