I already play on another iPoker Network site. Why sign up with CelebPoker?

You’ll be able to play on both accounts and will receive great promotions on both sites. However, because CelebPoker.com offers some of the best promotions, enhanced customer service and incredible VIP Treatment, we are sure that you will want to spend most of your time with us!

How does the VIP Club work and what’s in it for me?

You have automatically been assigned a VIP Level for your new account, based upon the level of play of your best month in the last six months. Your VIP Level dictates how quickly you can earn CelebPoker Points (CPPs), for our loyalty program. Furthermore, you will automatically receive a monthly cashback bonus of up to $400, depending upon your VIP Level. VIP Levels are calculated monthly based upon the previous month’s play. Keep playing to increase your level and your rewards!
