What is the deal

What are you giving away in return for a rake back ... your hand histories for statistical use or ??

Everything has a price, what is the price for a rakeback deal ?

No price. You just get money back. The affiliate is giving something up(rake back $$$) to gain your business.

Technically, you aren't giving anything away, your affiliate is.

When you signup thru a rakeback affiliate, the sites pay the affiliates for bringing you to them as a customer. The affiliate in turn returns a portion of that payment to you in the form of rakeback.

Its a win-win-win situation... the site gets your business, the affiliate gets a cut of your rake, and you get a portion of your rake back!

When you signup (at a site where rakeback is possible) without an affiliate, only the site wins!!!

the only thing you give up is the profit margain the affilate keeps themself. But this is not really giving up anything as you aren't entitled to it in the first place. Rakeback is a necesity, you should get it.
