Betfair Poker rakeback
Betfair Poker rakeback is paid through Stack+, a seven-level program that returns up to 25% of your rake. Since October 2026 Betfair Poker runs on PokerStars software in the UK, and the brand now appears as PokerStars on Betfair.
Stack+ works month by month. You start earning from 500 points, each new level raises the rate for everything you play afterwards, and points go back to zero on the first day of every month. Rewards are paid in cash as you level up, with no wagering.
How Stack+ rakeback works
| Feature | Stack+ |
|---|---|
| Market | United Kingdom |
| Software | PokerStars (since October 2026) |
| Levels | 7 |
| Rewards start at | 500 points |
| Maximum rate | up to 25% of rake |
| Effect of a new level | higher rate applies at once to all further play that month |
| Points reset | 1st of every month |
| Payout | cash as your level rises |
| Wagering | none |
The monthly reset is the main thing to plan around. A player who reaches level 5 on the 20th keeps the level 5 rate only until the end of that month, then starts again from zero.
