Bwin Italia Rakeback Deal and Review

Bwin.it Rakeback Deal

ItalyPokerDeals customers benefit from a 30% Bwin.IT rakeback deal, as follows: 10% from their VIP System and 20% from the Bonus Builder program. Please find all details below, in our Bwin.IT review.

Non-Italian players who are not allowed to register Bwin.IT accounts are kindly asked to get in touch with ItalyPokerDeals team to discuss alternative options!

Bwin.IT updated their VIP System, B'inside, at the beginning of 2018, but the change was not beneficial for the players since all Bwin.IT VIP rewards have been set to 10% gross rakeback equivalence. Though, the decrease was compensated by the Bonus Builder program offered, described in Bwin.IT Bonus section. If you want to check the old Bwin.IT VIP System, you can find it here.

B'inside is based on the old types of points:

♦ Bwin.IT Status Points:

- used for determining the B'inside Status;

- earned when playing real money games at a rate of 1 Status Point for each €0.50 rake;

- credited to the user's account at the end of the game;

- valid for 30 days which means the Bwin VIP Status is redetermined every month, Status Points count starts from 0 at the beginning of each month;

♦ Bwin.IT Market Points:

- used for acquiring bonuses and tickets and other exclusive products in the Bwin VIP Shop - The Market;

- earned when playing real money games at a rate of 1 Market Point for each €0.50 rake, but also from promotions;

- credited to the user's account at the end of the game;

- after 12 weeks of inactivity, 20% (at least 200 Market Points) of your balance will expire and afterwards you will continue losing 20% of your remaining Market Points balance for each additional week of inactivity; after 20 weeks of inactivity, you will lose your entire Market Points balance;

Bwin.IT VIP System consists of 3 levels: Green (default), White and Yellow. Below you can find the requirements and limitations for each level.

As you can notice, the monthly poker bonus limit is set to 1 for each level, meaning you can't buy more than 1 bonus with a specific value from B'inside, during a month. For example, you can't buy 2 x €1000 bonuses, but you can buy 1 x €1000, 1 x €500, 1 x €100 and so on.

In the table below you can find the bonuses you can get from the shop, their Market Points requirements and their rakeback equivalence.

Bwin.IT Cashier (Deposit and Withdrawal Methods)

Bwin.IT deposit options and the associated limits
 

In October 2018, Bwin.IT removed Skrill and Neteller from their deposit options. Though, these methods are available for withdrawals.

Please be aware that all deposits must be cleared prior to withdrawals. This means you have to wager the deposited amount at least one time, before you are allowed to cash out. In case of poker, this means your total investment in pots (matched bets) must be greater than the amount you want to withdraw.
