Rakeback is usually only given to players who sign up to a poker site via an affiliate. It is a way of the poker site thanking the affiliate for referring new players. It is usually paid as a percentage of the amount of money raked at the table when you play cash games or as a percentage of the rake taken when you buy in to a tournament. Depending on the site you play at and the affiliate you sign up through, you may receive the rakeback anything from daily to monthly, it may be paid directly by the poker site or it may be paid via the affiliate and it may be paid in to your poker account or a separate account.

The percentages available vary according to site and affiliate with the maximum allowed rake at most of the established sites being around the 30% figure. Some sites such as Stars, Party or any of the iPoker sites do not offer rakeback.

For specific rakeback deals, go to the Affiliates/Rakeback forum or one of the sponsored rakeback forums.

I am averaging about 25% RB at stars due to those 200k Sunday tournaments that i use my fpps on.... im goldstar by the way... some people say its a waste of time but heck, its better than bonuses and the best way to spend fpps imo.

Yes, the sites that don't do rakeback tend to have some sort of bonus / VIP program instead that often works out as a simillar percentage to rakeback. Some sites allow you to earn VIP points, bonuses and rakeback all at once in which case you can end up effectively at close to 100% rakeback. (or even over 100% if you are on a high VIP level)

Hilarious!
