| What is rake? |
| The 'rake' is the amount the poker room removes from each pot, as a fee, for hosting/offering the poker game. The amount taken from each pot varies by limits, but is generally anywhere from $1-$3 on average per hand. |
| What is rakeback? |
| When you sign up with a poker room through AceRake, you will receive a refund for every $1.00 that you pay in rake. This refund is known as rakeback. No matter what limits you play, whether you are a professional or just play poker for fun, receiving rakeback will greatly increase your win-rate, and allow you to make more money |
| What is "Total Rake" or "Net Revenue"? |
| Each poker room may have a different term for "Total Rake" or "Net Revenue", but it is essentially the total rake paid by you as calculated by the poker room. When AceRake pays your rakeback, it is always a percentage of your Net Revenue. |
| What is a Rakeback Provider? |
| A rakeback provider is a company that advertises for a poker room or a group of poker rooms. Rakeback providers are paid a percentage of Total Rake for each one of their players. AceRake then gives this payment from the poker room, in the form of rakeback, back to you, the poker player. |
| How often are my Rakeback stats updated on AceRake? |
| Almost all of your rakeback stats are updated daily. If a site does not update daily there will be a note of this. There can sometimes be delays with the rakeback stats updating, but these delays are usually out of our control and are usually not more than a couple of days. |
| Can I Still Get Bonuses at a Poker Room if I Receive Rakeback? |
| Yes! You will still be able to receive bonuses offered by the poker room and any other promotions offered by the poker room or AceRake if you receive rakeback from AceRake. Bonuses are deducted from your Total Rake, but it is much better to receive both bonuses and rakeback than either by themselves. |
| When are Rake Back Payments Made to Me? |
| The payments are made once a month, generally during the second week, for the previous month's rake back that is currently due to you. For example, if you have accumulated $400 in rake back in December, this will be paid to you in January. Though we strive to make the rake back payments to you by the 15th of each month, certain poker rooms automatically make the rake back payment to your poker account. There are times when the rake back payment will be made even later than the 15th due to their poker rake back payment schedule. Note: You must have a rake back balance of $50 or more from the previous month in order to receive your rake back payment. If you are owed less than that, it will be carried over to the following month and will paid once your total has reached $50. |
