PokerSavvy

PokerSavvy is a strong brand in the poker industry however they are primarily known for their kickback promotions and also their training site PokerSavvy Plus rather than their rakeback deals. Whilst they are at the very top of the kickback niche they are still relatively new to the rakeback side of things but this hasn't stopped them from starting their own independent program from the ground up rather than joining an affiliate network.

Exclusive Promotions

The benefit of this is that they offer unique deals and although they don't have the massive rake races and freerolls some other affiliates do; their races are less competitive and therefore much easier to actually win. To further offset any perceived disadvantage in terms of rake races they provide 1 month access to their training site, PokerSavvy Plus, if you generate $300MGR in a month. This is much cheaper than the $500MGR condition offered by rival training sites. In addition if you generate $3k you get a private review of one of your poker sessions by a PokerSavvy Plus Pro which could prove invaluable in finding leaks in your game which could prove more profitable than any rake race; no other affiliate offers this kind of promotion. It soon becomes apparent that PokerSavvy are well on their way to becoming a dominant force in the rakeback industry and the value of their rake races are sure to grow month on month. Although it may not appeal to the very biggest rakers as of yet a low stakes grinder could do a lot worse than choosing PokerSavvy.

Customer Support & Rakeback Tracking System

Their rakeback tracking system shows the absolute minimum i.e. the room you have sign up to, rakeback percentage, rakeback earnt and lifetime rakeback. We would argue that's all you need but perhaps for some users they like the bells and whistles of being able to track your rakeback stats on a day to day basis or seeing a more detailed monthly history that is provided by a more established rakeback affiliate. Their support system is great giving the option of live chat Monday-Friday 10am-6pm PST or via email where they pretty much guarantee a response within 1 business day. They also have a very active support forum and as can be seen from the time stamps most posts have a reply within a few hours.

Referral Program

Unfortunately PokerSaavy's rakeback program doesn't really have a refer-a-friend scheme in the usual sense. Their refer-a-friend scheme is aimed more at the kickback bonuses they provide. When you refer a friend, you'll receive a bonus equal to 10% of the SavvyPoints your friends' earn for completing poker room signups. They do have an affiliate program which you have to register for and be approved providing you meet their requirements. The capabilities of their affiliate program far surpasses any other refer-a-friend system providing a number of marketing tools, unique links and very good tracking capabilities. You are also able to refer friends to all three of their products not just rakeback. Having said this the commission percentages are distinctly average as can be seen in the table below.
