Rakeback for Existing AP/UB Accounts
Two weeks ago Chipleader, the affiliate program for Absolute Poker and Ultimate Bet, announced they will be allowing players who have not played for the last 90 days to move to our rakeback program. This is great news for PAS Publishers and their players. Before this announcement, our player support department was getting several emails a day from players who could not get rakeback because their accounts were too old. Even if the player was not active they could still not receive rakeback from PAS Publishers.
There are still two weeks left in the month of October for players to get rakeback on UB and AP. For players with existing accounts to qualify for rakeback on Ultimate Bet and Absolute Poker players must:
1). Not have played on UB/AP for the last 90 days.
2). Have originally created accounts at UB/AP directly through the poker room’s website and not through another affiliate.
This is a great opportunity for Publishers to convert players that have been wanting to get rakeback on an existing poker room account. One of our Publishers emailed his players last night telling them about the announcement by Chipleader. As a result, our support department has been flooded with emails today from players inquiring about rakeback at UB and AP.
A form email for Publishers to send to their players regarding the announcement and instructions on how to retrieve your player’s email addresses can be found here.

Hello,
I have a long existing account with UB under the username “pudding.” I signed up with them (around 2004) directly through the website, and as a result have no rakeback.
For years I was just an occasional player. For the past year, I have been a live professional cash game player. Due to an illness in my family, I will be playing exclusively online for the foreseeable future. I will likely play 15-20,000 hands per week.
Obviously, with this volume, and relying on this as my source of income for my family, I need rakeback. UB is the only site I’m currently signed up with. I love the software and REALLY don’t want to go anywhere else.
I am asking for help getting into a rakeback program so I can continue to play on UB. Otherwise, the several hundred dollars per month that I will be losing without rakeback will be too much for me not to move to other sites.
Thanks for your consideration.
