Winamax rakeback
Winamax rakeback has no fixed percentage. Instead of returning a share of rake, Winamax rewards weekly missions and yearly statuses with bonuses, and new players get a welcome package of up to €500. Reviews that promise "up to 40%" describe an older system.
Winamax is the fifth-busiest poker room we track, with 1,194 cash game players on average, and it operates in France, Spain and Portugal. Cash game rake is 5% with caps.
How Winamax rewards work
| Feature | Winamax |
|---|---|
| Fixed rakeback rate | none |
| Main reward | bonuses for completing weekly missions |
| Long-term reward | yearly statuses |
| Welcome package | up to €500 |
| Cash game rake | 5% with caps |
| Wagering | partly: some rewards are bonuses with conditions |
Because rewards are tied to missions, the effective return depends on which missions you complete, not on a percentage of rake.

What Winamax does not publish
- A rakeback percentage of any kind.
- A conversion from rake to reward value that would let you compare Winamax with rooms that pay a share of rake.
How to estimate your own return:

- Add up the cash value of mission rewards and status rewards for the same month.
