Frequently Asked Questions

IS this for real? Why would anyone give me free money to play poker with?

Yes, this is for real. There are a lot of free bankroll providers online whose sole business model is to give free money to poker players. There are different ways that this works.

Some free bonuses are directly from the poker room itself, like VCPoker, who have been running a free poker cash promotion for a couple of years now. Their thinking is that new players will get to try out their poker room with no risk. They are confident that when you play the free cash on thier site you will like it enough to make a deposit and become a regular player.

Other bankroll providers, like PokerSource, have specific deals in place with the poker rooms whereby they get paid fro bringing new players to the poker rooms.

And there are others that operate ‘poker school’ type promotions where they will teach you how to play online poker and then give the free cash to the players that they think will generate the most revenue from it.

So where’s the catch?

There is no catch. But there are terms and conditions attached to all the free money offers. No one is going to give you free money into your poker account and let you take it out without playing it.

And there will be other terms and conditions that are specific to the individual bankroll provider or poker room involved, such as minimum age requirements, or specific country requirements. It is always a good idea to check the terms and conditions attached to any free poker offer.

I signed up but I didn’t get the money. What gives?

There are many reasons why you might have been declined. The easiest answer is to check the terms and be sure that you qualify. If you are certain that you qualify, then check that you have followed the instructions for the particular offer correctly.

If you did not follow the instructions properly, but you are certain that you should qualify, then you can contact the support of the bankroll provider. If youa re qualified they will do their best to help you out.
