Word is that Merge will stop offering rakeback to new players after June 1. Can you confirm? Can you let us know how this will effect players who signed up for rakeback direct through RPM? Will we be keeping our rakeback?

I will be upset if we stop receiving RB completely.

Spoke to RPM live chat and they said they aren't aware of any upcoming changes to rakeback.

I guess they want to maximize value for as long as they can keep US players at the tables. They must expect that it can't last. Why else this move?

CarbonAtil posted in the Carbon Thread and in the Rakeback Forum thread that RB players will continue to receive RB.

I know RPM is not the same as Carbon, but if Carbon is able to offer this I seriously doubt that RPM wouldn't offer the same as player friendly as they are.

Maybe they're just cutting off new signups while the rest of us get to keep our RB? let's not jump the gun to speculation city
