I've never really considered rakeback. I already have accounts at FT, Stars, and Absolute. Can i still sign up for rakeback at these sites? If not, how should i procede to take advantage of this..

1 - Stars. Doesn't have rakeback. Their vpp/fpp rewards program is the same for everyone and is a rakeback equivalent that becomes more valuable the more rake you generate.

2 - Full Tilt Poker. Depends on whether you originally signed up with tracking cookies installed from a non-rakeback affiliate. If you did, then you're out of luck. If you didn't, then you should contact FTP's in-house rakeback provider = rakeback pros. If you are unsure, then contact rakeback pros.

3 - Absolute. Sign up to rake the rake and ask them to assist. Clicking this rtr link is good

Definately worth the effort if you play any sort of volume.

Just bear in mind that if you play really small stakes (lower than nl25) then rake at FTP even with rakeback is still worse than PS (not sure about absoulte but I'll avoid it anyway for different reasons).

We offer all players 40% rakeback without the need of an affiliate or rakeback site. No hoops to jump through at all. Once you become a member of the poker room you're automatically placed on the rakeback plan. Rakeback is paid every Tuesday directly into your player account and you'll receive an e-mailed report of your activity and earnings.

Granted we aren't PS, FT or Absolute but we are on a growing network and you can play in both Dollars and Euros.

Thanks for reading.

Skeeeeeeeeeeeeeetchy.

Anyways, I managed to get rakeback on my FTP account after I had already signed up. I contacted both RakebackPros and FTP ... I got denied at first, but got a notice a month or two later telling me the rb had been applied.

Like Sheetah said, if you're playing the micros, stay with PS. Even with the weekly rakeback deposits into your account, FTP still takes more of your money than PS.

Edit: Check this out PSA: Microstakes at PokerStars > Microstakes at Full Tilt
Tilt is poker cancer. You catch it, you die.

What's the deal with rakeback at FT? Don't you need to play a million hands before you start earning it? Or have I been completely misinformed...

I contacted rakebackpros today but they turned down my request. I think I signed up with the links provided here but im not 100% sure about that.

What can I do now? I haven't contacted FT directly.

tryplaying in the FTR full tilt tournaments and if you can play then you signed up with FTRs code and you get the benefits of the tournaments instead of rakeback.You're tagged to FTR and unless they agree to release you you won't get rakeback.

Anyone who has problems with getting rakeback should just change their isp that's how ur identified to the sites. Then register with rakeback pros for FT and then sign up with a new account that way ur guaranteed to get rakeback and u can go for another 1st time bonus.

What do you lose - ur old username and any notes. OOOO big deal. However, you can stil access ftps just don't run both accounts from the same isp as you will be told u can't have 2 accounts and will then have to delete one.

look up Cereus - not to be trusted plenty of info on the net.

^ is exceedingly bad advice. Read the terms and conditions , when they catch you,you could have your funds seized and be banned for life. Thinking that your isp is the only way that they will catch you is deluded.
