Rise: how TigerGaming new loyalty programme works

Rakeback is a strong argument in the battle for a player's attention. Some brands put their loyalty programme at the forefront of their minds. For example, PokerKing returns up to 65% of commission, GGPoker — 60%. TigerGaming management has finally realised the importance of rakeback. Let's discuss the new VIP-system "Rise".

Terms of the loyalty programme

In June 2024, TigerGaming announced a new VIP-system. It consists of 4 levels and allows you to get rakeback up to 25%. The key data is on the screenshot:

Here are the arguments in favour of Rise given by the poker room:

• Exclusive rewards. They pay out in cash. No wagering required.
• Weekly cash bonuses. Rakeback comes on Mondays.
• Four levels of payouts. As the limits increase, the rakeback increases.

However, the key factor TigerGaming did not name. It sounds like this: "Before there was no rakeback at all, but now there is". For many years, Chico Network rooms did not offer rakeback at all. Against the background of competitors this approach looked strange.

Together with the new loyalty programme TigerGaming announced a slight reduction of rake in cash games. As a result, the benefit from the innovations turned out to be more than the maximum rakeback of 25%.

How to increase income from playing in Chico rooms?

The new VIP-system is a step towards the clients. However, active multi-tabling players will be able to get the most out of it. It is not easy to play several tables at the same time. The task will be made easier by statistical software. Hand2Note, PokerTracker 4, Holdem Manager 3 collect information on opponents and provide it to the player. This allows make more profitable decisions. PT4 and HM3 do not display statistics directly. You need Chico Converter or Advanced Chico Converter.

Statistics gives you the opportunity not only to win more, but also to improve your skill level. Regular analysis of hands helps you to improve your skills. Learning from your own mistakes is one of the best methods of development. More about hand analysis in a separate article.

Why choose TigerGaming?

The new loyalty programme is not the only argument in favour of the poker room of the Chico network. Among the advantages of TigerGaming we would like to mention:

• Low level of opponents. Chico Network is not among the leading poker networks in the world. Professionals prefer: GGPoker, PokerStars, RedStar Poker and other popular brands. That's why there are fewer strong players on Chico. The soft field in tournaments is a pleasant surprise. In MTT the opponents are weaker and there are fewer of them.
• High popularity of 9-max. Many rooms have long removed Full Ring from the lobby. All because of the low interest in them. On TigerGaming format 9-max is still in demand. Of the big brands, only PokerStars and GGPoker can boast of such a format.
• Simple and convenient software. The client for the computer meets the modern requirements of the industry. Many professionals respect the Chico Poker software for its minimalism and choice in favour of convenience. GGPoker animations and sound effects are not suitable for everyone. TigerGaming works on: Windows, Mac OS, iOS, Android. There is also a browser version of the software.
• Support for poker trackers. Hand2Note works directly, Holdem Manager 3 and PokerTracker 4 - with the help of converters.
• Bad Beat Jackpot. Sometimes the room generously compensates for losses with top combinations. For example, in 2018 Tyrant received $273,382 as part of the promotion. In 2024, the largest payout went to anbazarabl. He became richer by $85,857.
