Helping Players Keep More of What They Earn
Our Mission
Every poker player pays rake. It's the cost of doing business at the tables. But most players have no idea how much they're actually paying -- or how much they could be getting back.
RakebackHQ was built by poker players who got tired of the opacity. Different rooms, different reward structures, different tiers, different methods of calculating contributions. It's a maze designed to confuse you into accepting less than you deserve.
We cut through all of it. Our advanced rakeback calculator lets you model your exact earnings at every major poker room based on your stakes, format, and volume. Our in-depth reviews break down each room's reward system tier-by-tier so you can make informed decisions. No fluff, no misleading claims -- just data.

How We Make Money
Affiliate Disclosure
Full transparency. Here's exactly how it works.
RakebackHQ earns money through affiliate partnerships with the poker rooms we review. When you sign up at a room through one of our links, we receive a percentage of the rake you generate. This is called revenue share.
Here's what matters: this costs you nothing. You get the exact same rakeback deals (often better, through our exclusive links) whether you sign up through us or directly. The poker room pays us from their marketing budget -- it doesn't come from your rakeback.
This model actually aligns our incentives with yours. The more you play, the more rakeback you earn, and the more we earn. That's why we genuinely want to help you find the best room for your game -- your success is our success.
We review rooms honestly regardless of affiliate relationships. If a room has bad rakeback, confusing tiers, or poor software, we'll say so. Our credibility depends on it.
Our Values
