Your complete guide to poker room referral programs. Practical tips, step-by-step instructions, and expert advice for online poker players.
## Earning Extra Through Poker Room Referrals
Most poker rooms offer referral programs that pay you when friends sign up through your link. This is free additional income on top of your own rakeback.
## How Referral Programs Work
You receive a unique referral link from the poker room. When friends sign up through your link and play, you earn a percentage of their rake as referral income. This is separate from your own rakeback.
## Room-by-Room Referral Offers
GGPoker: C$ bonuses for both referrer and new player. ACR: percentage of referred player's rake. CoinPoker: CHP token bonuses. PokerStars: tournament tickets and bonuses.
## Maximizing Referral Income
Share your link with poker-playing friends. Post in poker communities (where allowed). Help referred friends choose the right stakes and formats to maximize their activity and your referral income.
## Referral vs Affiliate
Personal referral programs are simpler but pay less than formal affiliate arrangements. If you can refer significant numbers of players, consider becoming a full affiliate for higher revenue share rates.
## Ethics of Referrals
Only refer rooms you genuinely recommend. Help referred friends understand rakeback and give them strategy tips. Building a reputation for honest recommendations leads to more successful referrals long-term.
