Earn Tell-a-Friend Commission Promoting the Points Shop

Your friends don't need to play a single hand of poker for them to earn you up to $500 commission for referring them to PokerStrategy.com. They will also earn you money if they purchase a subscription package in our Points Shop.

Your friends don't need to have signed up to an online poker room through PokerStrategy.com to get access to our educational content, or to earn you Tell-a-Friend (TaF) commission. They can instead opt to purchase a subscription package through our PokerStrategy.com Points Shop and start using our learning material without having to earn StrategyPoints from generating rake.

This is ideal for players who have already signed up to their favourite poker rooms before discovering PokerStrategy.com, players who currently cannot access some of our online partners because of country restrictions, predominantly live players, or people who just want the material sooner without having to generate the StrategyPoints first.

How do I earn TaF commission from the Points Shop?

Unlike our normal TaF referral scheme where you earn commission depending on the number of StrategyPoints a player earns, you earn commission from Points Shop referrals on a straight revenue share basis. You get 10% of all revenues generated from the purchasing of a points package, up to $500 per player. 

So if your friend purchases a 12 month SilverSilver status package they will pay $49, and you will earn $4.90. If your friend purchases the 12 month DiamondDiamond status package they will pay $2,690, and you will earn $269 right away.

As you can see from the table below, there is a wide variety of packages they can purchase, each with their own unique benefits which you can promote to your friends, and you will get 10% of any revenue they generate.
