Rakeback review - RaketheRake

RakeTheRake is a very large and longstanding affiliate in the online poker world and has paid out millions to players over the years. I've been a member for almost two years so far, and have signed up to a number of pokerrooms through their deals including Full Tilt, Interpoker, William Hill and Littlewoods.

Rakeback rates: [9/10] Generally RakeTheRake pay the highest available rakeback percentage allowed by each poker room

Additonal bonuses: [10/10] RakeTheRake have a LOT of addional benefits, including monthly freerolls and rake races. Some smaller room races can be very profitable

Poker room selection: [10/10] RakeTheRake has a huge selection of rooms on almost every major network and many independents

Ease of sign up: [9/10] Signing up to various sites is relatively well explained, and a simple process. Screen shots included for where to input rakeback codes

Customer service: [8/10] Thankfully since their software tends to run well, i've rarely had to contact them, but they have always been very quick to respond and follow up any queries.

Payout methods: [8/10] Many rooms pay direct to your poker account, but for those that don't RakeTheRake has the option of Neteller, Paypal, cheque or direct to a poker room (Full Tilt, Party, Absolute/Ultimate bet)

Payout frequency: [8/10] For rooms where payouts are not direct, payouts are made each calendar month

Update frequency: [9/10] Generally your rakeback statistics are updated daily, apart from weekends

Referral program: [9/10] RakeTheRake has an easy to use affiliate program where you just put your link up on any website to automatically refer other players. Includes a solid payout of 2-3% of their rake each month. They also provide the code for graphical referral advertisements.

Verdict: [9/10] A quality rakeback provider that has always provided me with great service. They have always been courteous and responsive, and payouts have been prompt. I would recommend RakeTheRake to both the novice and veteran poker player, and in particular to those who like to "set and forget" as RakeTheRake do all the work for you.
