PokerStars Rewards. Built with The Players. For The Players.
Get more value for your play.
We've made PokerStars Rewards clearer and easier to understand with achievable targets and a fairer structure.
You can get from 15%-60% of rake and tournament fees back, depending on your rewards level.
Play real money. Earn reward points. Get rewards.
PokerStars Rewards is your way to win rewards. Earn reward points every time you play real money poker.
Collect enough points to complete your progress bars, and you'll unlock Chests loaded with rewards.
You can manage all your rewards in the 'My Rewards' area of your account.
Chests & Rewards
PokerStars Rewards has six regular levels, with each level rewarding a different Chest type of increasing value. The higher your Chest Level, the greater the rewards you'll win.
The number of reward points you need, the Chest value at each level, and the number of Chests required to upgrade to each level (in a rolling 28-day period) is shown below:
| Chest Level | Reward Points Requirements | Number of Chests to Level Up | Chest Value | Poker Reward % |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Blue | 2,000 | 5 | $3 | 15% |
| Bronze | 6,000 | 5 | $10.50 | 17.5% |
| Silver | 20,000 | 5 | $40 | 20% |
| Gold | 50,000 | 5 | $125 | 25% |
| Diamond | 120,000 | 5 | $360 | 30% |
| Black | 250,000 | N/A | $1,000 | 40% |
If 28 days pass and you have not won a Chest, your progress bar will reset and you'll be moved down a level, where Chests will be easier to win but will contain a lower value of rewards.
How to Earn Reward Points
Poker players earn 100 reward points for every $1 paid in fees for scheduled tournaments, and 100 reward points for every $1 paid in rake in Zoom or cash games or other tournament fees (130 reward points for every £1, and 110 points for every €1).
Chest Level Exchange
If you are at a higher level than Blue Chest, you will be able to exchange your progress bar for a lower level Chest. If you are eligible to exchange your progress bar, you will see the option available to you in 'My Rewards'.
