How ACR Rakeback Works in 2026
Americas Cardroom Loyalty Guide
Unlike most poker sites, Americas Cardroom does not offer a single flat rakeback percentage. ACR runs two entirely separate reward programs — and the one you end up on determines how much of your rake you get back and on what schedule. All accounts start on Elite Benefits by default; switching to 27% Fixed requires a one-time email to ACR support.
Both programs are funded from your allocated rake — 75% of your real rake paid. So if you generate $100 in rake, ACR calculates your rewards from $75. This means a “27% rakeback” headline figure equates to roughly 20.25% of real rake — worth knowing when comparing percentages across poker sites.
The two programs are mutually exclusive and effectively permanent: you can convert from 27% Fixed to Elite Benefits once, but converting back is not permitted. Use the calculator above to model your exact volume before committing.
- ✓CP-based loyalty (RP → CP → cash)
- ✓Scales to 54%+ at 5-Star General
- ✓Medal + VIP rank milestone bonuses
- ✗Low returns at Lieutenant / Captain rank
- ✗Max value requires very large CP batches
Best for: General rank+ (~100k annual RP)
- ✓Simple: 27% of allocated rake weekly
- ✓Paid every Monday — fully predictable
- ✓No rank thresholds or CP management
- ✗No cascade scaling at higher volumes
- ✗Returns cap out regardless of volume
Best for: below General rank (~100k annual RP)
The crossover point: Below the General rank threshold (~100,000 annual RP), 27% Fixed typically delivers more consistent returns — Elite Benefits CP rates start low at Lieutenant rank and scale gradually. At General rank and above, Elite Benefits accelerates sharply: 5-Star Generals earn 54%+ effective rakeback through CP exchange, Medals, VIP bonuses, and Rake Chase combined. The calculator above finds the exact crossover for your specific volume.
View full Elite Benefits rank structure
| Rank | RP Required | RP → CP Rate | Largest CP Batch |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lieutenant | Default (0 RP) | 1 : 1.0 | 1,000 CP = $10 |
| Captain | 750 RP / month | 1 : 1.5 | 4,500 CP = $50 |
| Major | 3,000 RP / month | 1 : 2.0 | 25,000 CP = $300 |
| Colonel | 7,500 RP / month | 1 : 2.5 | 50,000 CP = $600 |
| General | 100,000 RP / year | 1 : 3.5 | 250,000 CP = $4,000 |
| 5-Star General | 1,000,000 RP / year | 1 : 5.0 | 625,000 CP = $10,000 |

How to Get Rakeback on Americas Cardroom
Step-by-Step Setup Guide
Sign up through a Universal Poker affiliate link
Register your ACR account through Universal Poker to activate exclusive deal enhancements — including an Exclusive Rake Chase, 2×$5 SPINZ tickets, and priority support not available to direct sign-ups.
Choose your rakeback program
All new ACR accounts default to Elite Benefits. If you want 27% Weekly Fixed Rakeback instead, email support@acrpoker.eu after registering (processed within 72 hours). This decision is effectively permanent — once you convert from Fixed back to Elite, you cannot return to Fixed. Use the calculator above to model your volume before choosing.
Track your RP, CP, and rank in the ACR lobby
Log in to the ACR lobby and navigate to the Elite Benefits section to monitor your monthly Reward Points, Championship Points balance, current rank, and Rake Chase leaderboard position. 27% Fixed Rakeback is credited automatically every Monday.
Redeem CP in the largest batches available
On Elite Benefits, always redeem your CP using the largest available batch first ($10,000 for 625,000 CP, then $4,000, $1,500, etc.). This greedy cascade approach maximises your effective rakeback percentage — exactly the logic this calculator uses to project your returns.
ACR's Weekly Rake Races: The Beast & Sit & Crush
Bonus Leaderboards on Top of Rakeback
Beyond Elite Benefits and 27% Weekly Fixed, every ACR player — regardless of program — is automatically entered into a weekly rake race that pays extra cash on top of their rakeback. SPINZ players compete in Sit & Crush; Cash Game players compete in The Beast. This calculator's SPINZ and Cash tabs already factor in an estimated race payout automatically — you don't need to add it separately.
- ✓Weekly leaderboard, SPINZ games only
- ✓Funded by 25% of every game fee
- ✓Cash prizes plus satellite tickets for top finishers
- ✓Runs alongside Elite Benefits or 27% Fixed
Best for: consistent weekly SPINZ volume
- ✓Weekly leaderboard, Cash Games only
- ✓Funded by your Weighted Contributed Rake
- ✓Cash prizes plus satellite tickets for top finishers
- ✓Runs alongside Elite Benefits or 27% Fixed
Best for: consistent weekly Cash Game volume
Same ticket, either race: Sit & Crush and The Beast feed the exact same $95-value satellite ticket — ACR's own tournament schedule lists a recurring Sunday slot literally named "Beast&SnC MEGA Sat." Whichever leaderboard you qualify through, the ticket is worth the same. MTT tournaments don't have an equivalent rake race — Rake Chase (covered in the FAQ below) is the MTT-inclusive leaderboard.

How does the ACR Rakeback Calculator work for SPINZ, Cash Games and MTTs?
How is ACR cash game rake calculated?
Americas Cardroom charges 5% of every pot in No Limit and Pot Limit cash games, capped per hand. The cap depends on the stake and how many players are dealt in — since that cap is a maximum, not an average, the calculator's Cash tab doesn't simply multiply it by 100. It scales a typical bb/100 rake rate to your exact stake and table size, then applies ACR's cap below as a ceiling, so the rake-per-100-hands figure stays realistic at every stake instead of assuming every single pot hits the max.
| Stake Bracket | 2 Players | 3 Players | 4 Players | 5-9 Players |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Up to $1/$2 | $0.50 | $1.00 | $2.00 | $3.00 |
| $2/$4 – $4/$8 | $1.00 | $1.50 | $2.00 | $3.00 |
| $5/$10 and higher | $1.25 | $1.75 | $2.25 | $3.00 |
