Welcome Bonus
The first thing we found during our GGPoker review was a really cool bonus. This bonus actually offers new players a choice. Here’s how the bonus offer breaks down:
- Get $100 in rewards OR a matched deposit bonus up to $600.
- Minimum deposit is $20.
- First choice – $100 worth of free tickets and Cash Game Dollars.
- Second choice – deposit match up to $600.
- New players only, aged 18+,
- Full T&Cs apply.
This is a great initiative. Many will go for the 100% deposit match, which is fair enough. Put in $50, get $50. Put in $600, get $600. We always think this is fair. There will always be a hefty wagering requirement however and that is what puts many people off claiming a bonus.
That’s the beauty of the other choice – $100 in rewards. The rewards include over $50 in Free Play. The $100 deal is made up in the following way:
- Day 1 – $11 in All-In or Fold Sing Tickets
- Day 2 – $6.50 in tickets
- Day 3 – $6.50 in tickets
- Day 4 – $6.50 in tickets
- Day 5 – $9.00 in tickets
- Day 6 – $13.00 in tickets
Players can then play to grab additional rewards, taking the total bonus up to $100
Games Offered
We found tons of games on offer during our GGPoker review. As the name would suggest, the focus here is on poker. As such, poker players are well catered for.
Plenty of real-money poker games are offered. Players can choose from Sit & Go’s and tournaments, with types including Omaha, Short Deck and Texas Hold ‘Em.
Those playing for real cash can choose from a wide range of stakes. Real play is available from $0.01 / $0.02 right up to $400. The rake-in is set at 5% across the board. Caps are based on blind levels. At certain tables, features such as Smart Betting, Card Squeeze and All-In Insurance are available.
Tournaments are made available too, in which players can choose from a wide variety of options. Tournaments include freezout, guarantees, turbo and bounty builders. Buy-ins vary from freerolls right up to thousands of dollars. Prizes however can go right up to $500,000.
Casino Games
Away from poker, our GGPoker review did spot other games available. Top developers such as Microgaming, iSoft and Play N Go have produced the titles.
Games include top pokies and jackpot games, but also traditional casino table games. Variations of roulette, blackjack and baccarat are available. Overall, the games are great but even more will be offered for non-poker players in time.
GGPoker Software
We liked the colour scheme first of all. We did most of our GGPoker review via mobile, as playing on the go is most popular now.
The black and red scheme works well, with the site very easy to navigate. You can access GGPoker via any modern iOS or Android device, while you can also play on PC or Mac.
Everything is available to access via mobile. All tournaments and games, banking, customer support and promotions are available.
As always, we recommend that you keep your Flash Player updated. This, along with a strong connection, is what you’ll need to access games in high quality. You certainly don’t want your connection dropping in the middle of a real-money game.
The games here, including the non-poker titles, are all provided by top developers. Such international games producers send their titles to the top online casinos around the world. In terms of quality and ease of use, there isn’t much more GGPoker could have done.
GGPoker’s Promos
For New Zealand players there is a strong list of ongoing promotions. The promos can and do change, so visit the ‘promotions’ page at GGPoker regularly. As of now, the promos and offers we found for existing players in our GGPoker review were:
- Daily Freebie. Log in each day to get a free reward.
- Mystery Envelope. Play at any 9Max (Ante) NLH tables for cash drops.
- Daily Leaderboards. Rewards available for climbing leaderboards with Hold’em, Rush & Cash, All-In etc.
- Rush & Cash Friday. Cash Drops available on Fridays.
- Jackpots. Bounty, Bad Beat, All-In Fortune and All-In or Fold jackpots available.
These are just some of the individual offers for existing players. The promos are welcoming and genuinely reward longer-term players.
GGPoker Payment Options
Though looking from the outside in, GGPoker keeps its available payment methods secretive country-by-country, there are plenty to choose from.
Major credit and debit cards and e-Wallets are available. GGPoker doesn’t charge any fees to make deposits and they are all processed immediately. You can deposit from $10 upwards, right up to $5000 in most cases, though this depends on the payment method.
Withdrawals are easy here using the cashier. There can be a $1 fee charged for withdrawals, so ask about that before you choose which one to use. The processing time for cash-outs can take from just 30 minutes to a few days. Once processed, your withdrawal can then take another few days to come through.
Customer Service
The ‘help’ section here has hundreds of articles available, answering the most basic questions. If you have a more specific query then of course, you can get hold of the GGPoker team.
Our GGPoker review took a look at the ‘contact us’ section of the site. There is a [email protected] email address for general support. Responses are fairly quick and well thought out.
There is a GGPoker Subreddit, which many won’t use, and there is no obvious live chat system. That said, this is a modern brand which encourages social media use which we love.
You can get quick, polite and well-informed responses by interacting with GGPoker on the socials. YouTube, Facebook, X and Instagram accounts are all live and manned meaning you can get 24/7 support.
GGPoker Review Verdict
Specifically for modern-thinking poker players, our GGPoker review rates this is a very good site to choose.
There is a choice of new player bonuses, which we think is a great initiative. You can claim up to $600 as a fair matched deposit bonus, or if you don’t fancy the wagering requirements you can simply claim $100 in rewards instead.
There are plenty of promos, the site is easy to use and there are tons of games and tournaments. The stakes range is huge, from $0.01 right up to $400, so there is something for every poker player here.
Even if you want a break from poker, there are slots and table games which are provided by top international games developers.
