Betfair VIP Program
Real money cash game and tournament players will automatically be enrolled in the Betfair Poker VIP Program. The main benefit of the program is that players are eligible to exchange Store Points for cash and earn the equivalent of up to 40% Valueback (rakeback equivalent). Store Points can be exchanged for cash at a rate of 90 Store Points per $1. A 10% discount to this rate is applied to bonuses and tournament ticket exchanges.
Store Points are earned in conjunction with Player Points, with a multiplier applied based on VIP status level. Store Point “Boosts” are also applied to help players achieve the maximum Valueback for a particular level. Players move up in statuses at Betfair Poker according to the number of Player Points earned over a month or a yearly period, per the chart below.
| VIP Program | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Status Level | PP Required | Rake Req (Cash Games) | Rake Req. (MTTs/SNGs) | Qualification | VIP Pts Multiplier | Valueback |
| Bronze | - | - | - | Monthly | 1x | up to 5% |
| Silver | 400 | $123 | $80 | Monthly | 2x | up to 12% |
| Gold | 1,300 | $400 | $260 | Monthly | 3x | up to 16% |
| Sapphire | 3,500 | $1,077 | $700 | Monthly | 4x | up to 19.5% |
| Diamond | 6,000 | $1,846 | $1,200 | Monthly | 5x | up to 20% |
| Master | 14,000 | $4,308 | $2,800 | Yearly | 5x | up to 27% |
| Grand Master | 60,000 | $18,462 | $12,000 | Yearly | 7x | up to 40% |
The chart above details the equivalent rake required to achieve the various VIP statuses at Betfair Poker. Because of a complicated adjustment made to Player Point earn rates for cash game players, we are only able to provide "average" numbers. Actual numbers will be based on your skill level vs. your opponents. Skilled players will earn less; inferior players will earn more. Tournament percentages are precise.
