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

Ignition in a nutshell

Ignition Poker is the poker room of the PaiWangLuo network, which it shares with Bovada and, since February 2026, with Ignition Poker LATAM, the former Bodog Poker. Put together, that makes one of the largest player pools available to players in the United States, plus Australia, Brazil and 14 other Latin American countries.

In the US, Ignition is open in most states. The exceptions are Delaware, Maryland, Nevada, New Jersey and New York. Players from Europe and Asia are not accepted.

Anonymous tables: why it matters

At Ignition, nobody sees the other players’ screen names. Each table shows only numbered seats. That changes the game:

• Tracking software (HUDs) cannot build stats on the players at your table.
• Regulars lose the edge of knowing, before they sit down, who plays loose and who plays tight.
• Recreational players suffer less from professionals who pick tables from a database.

For many recreational players, this is the main reason to choose Ignition. For players who make a living studying opponents with a HUD, it is the main reason to play somewhere else.

40% rakeback through RakebackPokerWorld

Rake is the fee the room takes from every cash game pot and from every tournament entry. Rakeback is the part of that fee that comes back to you.

At Ignition, players who open their account through our link get 40% rakeback through the RakebackPokerWorld deal, on top of the site’s own rewards program. A simple example:

Rake paid in the month	40% rakeback
$100	$40
$300	$120
$1,000	$400

Want to run the numbers with your own rake? Use the rakeback calculator. How and when the rakeback is paid is something you arrange with us on Telegram after you open the account.

Welcome bonus

The welcome bonus depends on how you make your first deposit:

• With Bitcoin: 150% up to $1,500.
• With a card: 100% up to $1,000.

Crypto is the most common deposit method at Ignition, so the 150% bonus is the one that applies to most players. As at almost every room, it does not land in your balance all at once: it is released in steps as you play and generate rake.

Before you deposit, check the time limit to clear the bonus on the sign-up page. If a rule is unclear, message us on Telegram and we will explain it.

Games and traffic

Ignition shares its tables with Bovada and Ignition LATAM, so you get players from the whole of the Americas in the same pool. It is easy to find a game in the evening, US time, and the Latin American players keep the tables busy at other hours too.

You will find Texas Hold’em and Omaha cash games, Zone Poker (fast-fold), Sit & Gos and a daily tournament schedule, with guaranteed events every weekend. The anonymous tables attract a more recreational crowd, playing for fun rather than hunting opponents.

Deposits and withdrawals

Ignition works mainly with cryptocurrency: Bitcoin, Ethereum and USDT, plus cards in most countries. The crypto route is:

1. Buy Bitcoin or USDT on an exchange.
2. Copy the deposit address shown in the site’s cashier.
3. Send it from the exchange, checking the network the cashier indicates.
4. To cash out, do it the other way round: request a crypto withdrawal and sell on the exchange.

If it is your first time, send a small test amount first. And prefer USDT if you do not want your balance to move with the Bitcoin price. The full step by step, with the precautions for each stage, is in how to deposit and withdraw Bitcoin at poker sites.

How to open your account

New account:

1. Click “Open an account at Ignition Poker” at the top of this page. That is the link that ties your account to RakebackPokerWorld.
2. Fill in the sign-up form with your real details. The site may ask for an ID document before your first withdrawal.
3. Make your first deposit, in crypto or by card.
4. Send us your screen name on Telegram so we can register your rakeback.

Already have a Bodog or Ignition account? It still works, but an account opened without our link usually does not qualify for the rakeback deal. Message us on Telegram to check your case before opening another account: most rooms do not allow two accounts for the same person.
