WPT Cyprus Qualifiers
The classic poker dream of turning a single dollar bill into a luxury poker vacation is the main driving force behind WPT Global's newest online qualification cycle. The platform has officially opened up its daily satellite matrix for the WPT Cyprus Championship, allowing players to jump on the ladder for an entry fee of just $1.10. 

The Six-Week Qualification Roadmap

The qualification window opened on June 28, 2026, and operates as a daily funnel for exactly six weeks. The entire system builds toward a weekly high-value showdown every single Sunday evening, wrapping up with a definitive final qualifier on August 9, 2026.


The complete satellite progression is broken down into the following distinct phases:

  • $1.10 Step Satellite (Daily) ➔ $11 Satellite (Daily) ➔ $108 Weekly Qualifier (Sundays at 18:06 UTC) ➔ Full WPT Cyprus Package


The first official $108 package tournament goes live this Sunday, July 5, 2026, at 18:06 UTC. Players have the flexibility to buy directly into any stage of the tree at any point during the six-week campaign, and successful qualifiers can choose which live Day 1 flight they prefer to play, subject to field availability.

Travel Perks and Regulatory Rules

Winning the $108 Sunday Qualifier converts your online run into an all-inclusive live package at the Chamada Prestige Hotel & Spa in Cyprus. The prize bundle includes a seat in the WPT Cyprus Championship, five nights of premium lodging from August 18–23, 2026, full food and beverage coverage, airport transfers, and branded merchandise.


Additionally, online qualifiers automatically become eligible for a $100,000 USD Winner's Bonus paid out by WPT Global if they navigate the live field to win the entire championship.


To ensure game integrity, WPT Global enforces a strict identity mandate: all package winners must complete comprehensive KYC verification by August 11, 2026. Failure to clear verification by this date will result in immediate disqualification with no alternative cash rewards provided. 


Package holders must also coordinate directly with the venue by August 15, 2026, to finalize their travel arrangements. If a player wins multiple packages, they are required to use the first one; extra packages may be transferred to a KYC-verified friend, though the transfer strips away the hospitality perks and the $100,000 bonus eligibility.
