This map describes operator access for the products shown. Offshore access is not US state licensing or a determination that play is legal in your location.
"ACR is worth comparing for cash games and tournaments on WPN. Its policy permits certain HUDs using your own completed hand histories, while prohibiting bots and real-time advice. Withdrawal eligibility includes a deposit waiting period and a rake requirement; assess those before depositing."
— Owner and Editor in Chief
Our editorial assessment of documented features, terms and player protections. Each category is scored out of 10; the overall score is its weighted average. These ratings do not represent measured payout times or support-response tests.
20% of the overall score
ACR takes the trouble to spell out rules against bots, collusion and account sharing, and that earns some credit. Its licence is clear too: Anjouan’s licence register lists the operator, International Processing Services SA, under ALSI-202607066-FI2. But it is an offshore licence rather than a US state regulator’s, and that limits how far the safety score can go.
18% of the overall score
The advertised quick crypto payouts come with a significant condition before the clock even starts. Withdrawals require poker rake or tournament fees equal to 10% of cumulative deposits; casino and sports bets don't count. Add the deposit waiting period and account review, and this is much less flexible than the payout headline suggests.
14% of the overall score
Releasing the welcome bonus a dollar at a time is the good part: there is no need to clear the entire headline amount to receive something. Each dollar takes 27.5 Award Points, with 60 days to earn it. At small stakes a third of cash-game rake feeds The Beast leaderboard and does not count, so each $1 of rake releases about 13¢ and the full $2,000 needs about $15,000 of rake. Compare what your usual volume would unlock, rather than the $2,000 maximum.
13% of the overall score
Tournament choice is the strongest reason to consider ACR. Big Poker Thursdays gives players a weekday alternative to the usual Sunday schedule, with a wide spread of buy-ins, although it pauses during tournament series. Final-table replays add something useful afterwards: a way to study decisions, with hole cards revealed, once the event is finished.
12% of the overall score
The mobile additions are useful beyond simply opening a table. ACR's August update brought final-table replays to the mobile website and player transfers into the mobile account menu. Home-screen installation also gets device-specific guidance. Those are worthwhile conveniences for checking results and managing an account away from a computer; desktop remains worth considering for a larger playing workspace.
11% of the overall score
A dedicated game-integrity reporting form is a useful detail for a poker room. It asks for hand or tournament IDs and the player involved, giving you somewhere specific to send a concern. The withdrawal FAQ is also fairly granular. The weaker point is resolution: ACR's policies leave investigation decisions with its own security team.
7% of the overall score
Visa is a costly convenience here: its 10% processing charge adds $10 to a $100 deposit. Crypto starts at a $10 deposit, but cashing out starts at $50, so the two minimums shouldn't be confused. A free mailed cheque is another option, although it is limited to once every 30 days.
5% of the overall score
The bonus guide explains its points calculation clearly; the banking information is less consistent. The main payment page quotes $55 for courier cheques, while the withdrawal FAQ quotes $65. Along with the separate rake requirement, that creates homework before a cashout. The account's current fee quote matters more than a convenient summary table.
Refer-a-Friend Bonus
The welcome bonus priced against the rake it takes to release, and ACR’s tournaments and leaderboards as it publishes them, checked 9 November 2026.
The welcome bonus pays $1 for every 27.5 Award Points. If those come at the 5.5 per $1 of rake that ACR states for its Rank Points, the headline rate is 20¢ per $1. But rake that feeds the weekly leaderboard races doesn’t count, and at small stakes The Beast takes 2¢ of every 6¢ of cash-game rake. So each $1 releases about 13¢.
At small-stakes cash games that is $250 of rake a day for 60 days. Tournament fees count in full, so $10,000 of them releases the lot; sit-and-go and Spinz fees lose 25¢ per $1 to Sit & Crush ($13,333).
A player paying $25 of small-stakes rake a day releases about $200 of bonus in 60 days; $100 a day releases about $800. Whatever is still locked after 60 days is lost, so the useful match is what your volume will clear.
The Beast ($100,000 a week for cash games), Blitz Beast (about $30,000) and Sit & Crush ($40,000) are funded from rake you already pay, so they cost nothing extra. That share is exactly the part that doesn’t release your bonus.
| Where your rake comes from | Bonus per $1 of rake | Rake for the full $2,000 | A day, over 60 days | Taken by races |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cash games, pots raking under 72¢ | 13.3¢ | $15,000 | $250 | 2¢ of every 6¢ |
| Cash games at the $3 rake cap | 18.4¢ | $10,870 | $181 | 24¢ a hand |
| Tournament fees | 20¢ | $10,000 | $167 | None |
| Sit-and-go and Spinz fees | 15¢ | $13,333 | $222 | 25¢ per $1 |
Worked out from ACR’s welcome-bonus terms and its FAQ on race fees, read 9 November 2026. We assume Award Points accrue at the 5.5 per $1 of rake that ACR states for Rank Points; it doesn’t give the Award Point rate separately. Blitz rake feeds a separate Blitz Beast race whose share isn’t published.
| Event or race | What ACR Poker publishes |
|---|---|
| Weekly schedule | $9.2 million guaranteed a week, according to ACR’s tournament menu. |
| Online Super Series | $20 million guaranteed in the current series. The OSS XL ran from 6 to 29 September 2026, with 336 events and $50 million+ guaranteed. |
| The Venom | ACR’s signature event. The October 2026 edition ran two progressive-knockout Venoms from 4 to 21 October: $5 million guaranteed in hold’em ($2,650 buy-in) and $1.5 million in Omaha, with satellites into both. Final tables of select events can be watched with hole cards on a 30-minute delay. |
| The Beast | A weekly cash-game leaderboard ($100,000 a week), from Saturday to Friday, funded by 2¢ of every 6¢ of rake up to 24¢ a hand; 1 point for every 2¢ you feed it. |
| Blitz Beast | A weekly leaderboard for Blitz fast-fold, about $30,000 a week. |
| Sit & Crush | A weekly leaderboard for sit-and-gos, on-demand tournaments and Spinz ($40,000), funded by 25¢ of every $1 in fees; 5 points per $1. |
| Freerolls | Several $50 freerolls a day, each capped at 2,000 entries. |
| Refer a friend | “The Side Hustle”: $50 in cash for your first qualified referral, rising through milestones to $70 a referral and to $125 each after 100. A friend qualifies by depositing $25 and generating $25 in rake. |

Elite Benefits ranks, points and cash rates from ACR’s own pages, checked 9 November 2026, priced by the rake you pay.
Elite pays back about 12–14% of your rake as a Lieutenant, 15–16% as a Captain, 19% as a Major and 23% as a Colonel, medals included. Only at General, from about $1,515 of rake a month, does it reach 34–45% and beat the 27% rakeback deals that affiliates offer.
The rakeback rates in other reviews come from affiliate deals. ACR’s own pages give no rate. They bar rakeback players from Elite Benefits and allow one switch back.
New accounts start on Elite. To switch to rakeback, email support@acrpoker.eu and allow up to 72 hours. You can switch back once, and your points restart from zero, so redeem them first.
100 Combat Points buy $1 at every rank. But a Captain gets $50 for 4,500, a Major $300 for 25,000 and a General $4,000 for 250,000, up to 1.6¢ a point, so saving points for the bigger exchange is worth it.
| Level | Rake to reach it | What it pays back |
|---|---|---|
| Lieutenant | Default | 1 Combat Point per Rank Point; 100 points buy $1. About 5.5% of rake back in points, 12–14% with yearly medals. |
| Captain | $136 a month | 1.5 points per Rank Point; 4,500 buy $50. About 9% in points, 15–16% with medals. |
| Major | $545 a month | 2 points per Rank Point; 25,000 buy $300. About 13% in points, 19% with medals. |
| Colonel | $1,364 a month | 2.5 points per Rank Point; 50,000 buy $600. About 16.5% in points, 23% with medals. |
| General | $18,182 a year | 3.5 points per Rank Point; 250,000 buy $4,000. About 31% in points, 34–45% with medals and VIP awards. Kept with $1,273 of rake a month. |
| 5-Star General | $181,818 a year | 5 points per Rank Point; 625,000 buy $10,000. About 44% in points, about 65% with medals and VIP awards. |
Figures assume the same rake every month, all year. Ranks are set monthly (General and 5-Star General yearly), so a first year spent climbing pays less than these figures. Medals and VIP awards are paid once a year at set Rank Point totals. Rank Points: 5.5 per $1 of rake you contribute or tournament fees you pay.

| Rakeback | A flat 27% at any stakes. | No rakeback rate on its pages. Rakeback players are barred from Elite Benefits, with one switch back and points reset. |

| Card deposits | Not accepted. | Accepted in some countries: Visa with a 10% fee, plus MasterCard, Discover and Amex. No card withdrawals. |

| Security record | “No security concerns”; “scandal-free for 14+ years”. | Its own pages describe hundreds of suspended accounts, a refund policy and an October 2026 remote-access investigation. |
| Traffic | About 1,000 cash players at peak; “top 2 in the US”. | Not published; no source given. |

89 complaints posted from December 2024 to November 2026, each counted once under what it is mainly about. Collected 9 November 2026.
How we counted: every 1–2 star Trustpilot review of ACR posted from 1 November 2024 to 9 November 2026, in any language, on its two pages (americascardroom.eu and acrpoker.eu) and a small unclaimed one. Wizard of Odds and AskGamblers have no ACR page, and Casino Guru and Reddit couldn’t be read. Dropping posts that named no problem or were about another site, and merging repeat posts, left 89 complaints; one reviewer’s 42 posts count as one. Complaints are unverified and come from unhappy players, so they show what goes wrong, not how often. Few players post a follow-up, so we can’t say how many were resolved.

Rake and tournament fees worked out from the chart and FAQ ACR publishes, checked 9 November 2026. At the smallest stakes the $3 cap is out of reach, so a pot pays the full 5% however big it gets.
| Game and stakes | Rake or fee as published | Rate | When the cap applies | What it costs you |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| No-limit and pot-limit, up to $1/$2 | 1¢ for each 20¢ in the pot. The cap depends on how many players are in the hand: $0.50 with 2, $1 with 3, $2 with 4, $3 with 5 to 9. | 5% | Full table: on pots over $60. That’s 3,000 big blinds at 1¢/2¢, out of reach; 600 at 5¢/10¢, 120 at 25¢/50¢ and 30 at $1/$2. | Up to $3 a pot |
| No-limit and pot-limit, $2/$4 to $4/$8 | 5¢ for each $1 in the pot. Cap: $1 with 2 players, $1.50 with 3, $2 with 4, $3 with 5 to 9. | 5% | Full table: on pots over $60, which is 15 big blinds at $2/$4 and 7.5 at $4/$8. | Up to $3 a pot |
| No-limit and pot-limit, $5/$10 and up | 25¢ for each $5 in the pot. Cap: $1.25 with 2 players, $1.75 with 3, $2.25 with 4, $3 with 5 to 9. | 5% | Full table: on pots over $60, which is 6 big blinds at $5/$10. | Up to $3 a pot |
| Heads-up pots up to $1/$2 | The same 1¢ for each 20¢ when 2 players are in the hand, with a $0.50 cap. | 5% | On pots over $10: 500 big blinds at 1¢/2¢, 100 at 5¢/10¢ and 5 at $1/$2. | Up to 50¢ a pot |
| Fixed limit | 4.5% up to 50¢/$1, with caps from 1¢ to 40¢. Higher stakes pay 1% to 4% with caps up to $3, and less when fewer players are in the hand. | 1–4.5% | Early: at a full table the cap starts at a pot of 1.5 to 17 big bets, depending on the stakes. | Up to $3 a pot |
| Tournaments and sit-and-gos | A fee on top of the buy-in, “around 10 percent” of it: $1 on a $10 buy-in. | 10% | No cap: every entry pays it. | 9.1% of the entry |
| Tournaments at $200 + $15 | A lower fee, one of the two examples in ACR’s FAQ. | 7.5% | No cap. | 7.0% of the entry |
| Tournaments at $1,000 + $50 | The FAQ’s other example. | 5% | No cap. | 4.8% of the entry |
Big blinds are the pot or the cap divided by the big blind. With 100-big-blind stacks a nine-handed pot can’t top 900 big blinds, so at 1¢/2¢ the cap is never reached. Up to $1/$2 a pot pays nothing until it holds 20¢, because the rake comes 1¢ for each 20¢. ACR’s rake page doesn’t say whether pots that end before the flop are raked; Black Chip, which uses the same chart, says they aren’t (“no flop, no drop”). The page’s “Rake Race Calculations” chart repeats its fixed-limit chart, so the leaderboard shares above come from ACR’s FAQ. We found no published fee for Spinz on the pages we read.
Every casino we review is tested with real accounts. We never accept payment to alter scores.
Recorded terms changes, with the date and topic of each comparison. Consult the operator terms for current conditions.
Gambling involves a risk of losing money. The operator’s responsible-gambling information explains its account restrictions. Independent help is linked below.
If you or someone you know is struggling with gambling, help is available 24/7.
ACR’s useful distinctions are its tournament schedule, WPN cash games and permitted tracking tools. Desktop software and the mobile web app are different ways to access the product. Read the withdrawal requirements and security policy: a published average payout time does not remove account review, and compensation for cheating is subject to the operator’s policy.
