Betsson Poker: rakeback, bonus and how to sign up (2026)

Betsson in poker

Betsson is a Swedish online gaming group, with shares listed on the Stockholm Stock Exchange and brands well known in Europe and Latin America, like Betsafe and NordicBet. In poker, the group’s brands run on Playtech’s iPoker network, one of the biggest poker networks in the world outside of GGPoker and PokerStars.

In practice, that means that when you sit down at a Betsson table, you’re playing against people who signed up through several different rooms: Betsafe, NordicBet, RedStar, NetBet, bet365 and others. More rooms on the same network mean more open tables and more tournaments.

40% rakeback through RakebackPokerWorld

Rake is the fee the room charges on every cash game pot and on tournament buy-ins. Rakeback is the part of that fee that comes back to you.

On Betsson, anyone who opens an account through our link gets 40% rakeback under the RakebackPokerWorld deal, the highest rate of any iPoker room on our list, tied with Betsafe. Here’s an example:

Rake paid per month	40% rakeback
US$100	US$40
US$300	US$120
US$1,000	US$400

To run the numbers for your own game, by format and hours played, use the rakeback calculator. The details of how and when rakeback is paid are something you sort out with us on Telegram, after opening your account.

Welcome bonus

Betsson changes its poker welcome offer often, so we’d rather not pin down a figure here. The current offer shows up on the signup page.

Before you accept it, check three things: how much you need to deposit, how long you have to clear the bonus, and whether it applies to cash games, tournaments or both. RakebackPokerWorld’s rakeback still applies whether you take the bonus or not.

Games, tournaments and HUD

On Betsson you’ll find Texas Hold’em and Omaha cash games, Sit & Gos, tournaments every day, and Twister, iPoker’s three-player Sit & Go where the prize is drawn at random before the game starts.

The highlight of the calendar is the Elite Series, the iPoker network’s festival. The 2025/2026 year-end edition had €12.5 million guaranteed, with buy-ins from €1 to €1,000, according to PokerStrategy.

One thing worth weighing up before you choose: the iPoker network allows HUDs. Programs like PokerTracker and Hold’em Manager work in every room on the network. For players who study the game, that’s an advantage. For recreational players, it means mid- and high-stakes tables will have more regulars. If you’d rather play without HUDs, check out Ignition Poker, which has anonymous tables.

For players in Brazil: use Betsafe

As of October 2026, Betsson isn’t accepting players from Brazil for poker. Betsafe, a sister brand in the same group, does accept players from Brazil and shares the same iPoker network tables, with 40% rakeback through our link and a 100% bonus up to €2,000 on your first deposit.

Deposits and withdrawals

Betsson accepts Bitcoin, USDT, cards and e-wallets. With crypto, the process is to buy Bitcoin or USDT on an exchange, send it to the address shown in Betsson’s cashier, double-checking the network listed, and reverse the process to withdraw. Send a small test amount the first time and, to avoid Bitcoin’s price swings, go with USDT, which tracks the dollar. The step-by-step guide is in how to deposit and withdraw Bitcoin in online poker.

How to open an account

New account:

1. Click “Open an account on Betsson Poker” at the top of this page. That’s the link that ties your account to RakebackPokerWorld.
2. Fill in the signup form with your real details. The room may ask for ID to release a withdrawal.
3. Download the poker software or open the mobile version and make your first deposit.
4. Send us your Betsson Poker screen name on Telegram so we can register your rakeback.

Already have a Betsson account? An account opened without our link usually isn’t covered by the rakeback deal. Talk to us on Telegram about your situation before opening another account: Betsson, like almost every room, doesn’t allow anyone to have more than one account.
