New Rake Back Program Takes the Squeeze Off Affiliates

Poker rake back programs have been forcing many affiliates to share their profits. A new affiliate program from http://poker8.com solves the problem.

Affiliates are people who get a percentage of the rake as compensation for advertising and recruiting new players to the poker room. Poker rooms often share stories of turning dust into gold with their poker affiliate programs. For most poker affiliates the story is often much tougher, because rake back affiliates are paying players to play at the poker rooms.

Poker affiliates are usually paid a scaled percentage of the rake, which increases with volume. Because of this commission scaling smaller affiliates cannot compete against the large volumes and cash back offers well established rake back sites are offering.

"I only get 25% of the rake for each person I recruit until my revenue reaches over $50,000 per month, yet many rake back sites are paying players 30%, I have no show of competing with their offers," says Greg Appleton, who has been a promoter of online poker for more than 5 years. "The site I was promoting has also banned a great deal of players because of their country of residence," Appleton said.

A new poker room http://poker8.com pays players 50% of their rake directly into their poker account and still pays affiliates up to 35%. "It is a great program and much easier to promote, they allow players from all parts of world to play on the site" Appleton stated.

The site features many promotions including daily free roll tournaments, bounty tournaments and bonuses for depositing customers. There is a poker school for the newer players.
