Turn One Buy-In Into a Month of Rakeback at Poker Planets
- Poker Planets hosts Sun Lite Cup & Sun Cup in January.
- Top players win 100% rakeback for one month.
- Affordable entry through buy-ins or qualifiers.
It’s not every day that a $5.50 or $11 tournament can stretch its value across four weeks of play but this January at Poker Planets, that’s exactly what’s on the table. Two upcoming bounty tournaments, the Sun Lite Cup and the returning Sun Cu —are giving players more than a one-time payout.
Finalists in either event walk away with something bigger: 100% rakeback for a full month.
Sun Lite Cup: Value at the Entry Level
The Sun Lite Cup kicks off on January 17 at 17:30 CET, with a $5.50 buy-in, a $2,500 guarantee, and a 7-max super bounty format. 70% of the prize pool goes toward knockouts, which means even early exits can pay.
But the main prize is for the top three finishers, each of whom receives one month of 100% rakeback, regardless of how much they rake in that time.
Don’t want to pay the buy-in directly? Poker Planets has set up plenty of paths in:
- Win a seat through play-money tournaments
- Join freebuy or satellite qualifiers
And if you win more than one ticket? Use it to re-enter or convert it into tournament dollars ($T).
Sun Cup: Seven Finalists, One Shared Rakeback Prize
The bigger of the two, the Sun Cup returns on January 31 at 17:30 CET with a $11 buy-in, a $5,000 guarantee, and the same 7-max, 70% super bounty format.
The twist? Every single final table player (7 total) gets the rakeback bonus.
Qualify early via:
- A freebuy satellite at 13:00 CET on the same day
- Daily $1.10 satellites running until January 30 (15:30 and 19:30 CET), plus one final chance on January 31 at 15:30 CET
FAQs: Poker Planets Sun (Lite) Cup
How much rakeback do I get if I qualify?
100% rakeback on all real-money play for one month following your final table finish (Sun Cup) or top-three finish (Sun Lite Cup).
What’s the cheapest way to enter?
You can qualify via play-money events, freebuys, or $1.10 satellites for both events. Extra tickets can be reused or converted into $T.
Do I need to track or claim the rakeback manually?
Nope, once you qualify, the rakeback is automatically tracked and applied over the following month.
