Default RakeBack

Sorry for the newbie question...

Are you better off getting a rakeback deal or taking the free stuff from the affiliates? Does rakeback apply when you are clearing bonuses? If it doesn't, then rakeback wouldn't matter if a site constantly had reload bonuses...how much is everyone getting in rakeback? I am looking for new sites, but want to maximize my bonus/rake opportunities.

Thanks for any input!

Rakeback > Free Stuff

Bonuses count against rakeback.

Get rakeback at a site like Eurobet with no bonuses.

Profit.

The reload bonuses are subtracted from your MGR, but that doesn't mean it's the same- it just means you are effectively getting only 75% of the bonus (assuming rakeback deal of 25%), but this is still better than nothing. If you generate $2000 in rake and get a $500 reload bonus, you only get rakeback on $1500. 25% of $1500 is $375 for a total comp. of $875, a lot more than the $500 you would get in rakeback with no bonus.
