CoinPoker Launches $1.5m Weekly ‘CoinRewards’ System Following Record March Traffic

Last Updated: 01/04/2026

Crypto‑focused poker platform CoinPoker has announced a major overhaul of its rewards structure, launching a new $1.5 million‑per‑week system called CoinRewards.

The update follows what the company describes as its most successful month to date, driven by a surge in traffic across formats including PLO6 and All‑In or Fold.

The move comes as crypto‑integrated gaming continues to grow, with CoinPoker positioning itself as one of the most active platforms in the space. 

High-Frequency Poker Rewards Rolled Out

CoinRewards is built around three main components:

• Cash game leaderboards
• Randomised splash pots
• Daily guaranteed returns

CoinPoker says the aim is to create a more sustainable, transparent ecosystem that rewards both casual players and high‑volume grinders.

$1 Million Weekly Cash Game Leaderboards

The new leaderboard system distributes $1,000,000 every week, with cycles resetting every two hours. This rapid‑fire format is designed to make rewards more accessible to players who can’t commit to long sessions.

CoinPoker ambassador and WSOP champion Bencb described the change as a “game‑changer”, noting that shorter cycles allow players to earn meaningful rewards in shorter bursts.

$500,000 in Weekly Splash Pots

A further $500,000 per week will be injected directly into active tables through CoinPoker’s “Golden Chest” splash pot mechanic.

Unlike traditional winner‑takes‑all drops, splash pots distribute rewards to every player dealt into the hand, with the pot winner receiving 40% and the remaining 60% shared among the table.

CoinPoker says this ensures casual players benefit rather than only high‑volume grinders.

Daily Guaranteed Returns for All Players

Every real‑money player will receive a 15% daily guaranteed reward, calculated from the previous day’s play and paid at 07:00 UTC.

CoinPoker positions this as a consistent baseline reward that applies regardless of stakes or volume.

Micro-Stakes Fees Reinvested Into the Ecosystem

In a move aimed at supporting new and recreational players, CoinPoker will reinvest 100% of micro‑stakes fees back into the player pool. This applies to:

• Cash games up to $0.02/$0.05
• Tournaments under $5

The company claims some players are already achieving “over 100% effective rakeback” through the combined reward mechanisms.

High-Stakes Rewards Programme Introduced

For players at $25/$50 and above, CoinPoker is launching a dedicated high‑stakes rewards system featuring:

• Action Rewards – for players who generate significant table activity
• Battle Rewards – offering high rakeback for top performers

CoinPoker says the aim is to create a healthier, more competitive high‑stakes environment.

New Poker Variants and Events Coming in April

Short Deck Poker Added

CoinPoker is adding Short Deck (6+ Hold’em) to its lineup, joining NLH, PLO, PLO5, PLO6 and All‑In or Fold.

• NLH and PLO divisions
• Rake‑free games
• Leaderboards
• Luxury prizes including Rolex watches

• Crypto payments
• Bank cards
• Google Pay
• Apple Pay

It also offers email‑only registration with no KYC requirements.
