Terms and Conditions

These terms and conditions explain the rules for using poker-websites.us.org, a comparison and review site for online poker. By reading or using the site, you agree to them. If you disagree with any part, please stop using the site. Last reviewed: September 30, 2026.

You must be 21 or older to use this site for any gambling-related purpose. A few US states set the minimum age at 18 for certain products, but we address our content to adults aged 21 and over. If you are under the age required where you live, do not use any poker site we mention.

What Best Online Poker Sites does, and what it does not

We are an information service. We compare online poker sites and apps, describe their published offers, and link to some of them. We are not a poker operator, we do not take deposits, hold player funds, or run games, and we cannot resolve disputes about your account at any third-party site.

• Any account you open is a contract between you and that operator, under that operator's own terms.
• We do not provide legal, tax, or financial advice.
• Nothing here guarantees that a site is available, licensed, or legal where you live.

Affiliate and commercial disclosure

We may earn a commission if you click a link and then sign up or deposit with an operator. This is a material connection under FTC endorsement guidelines. Commission does not buy position: our editorial ratings and rankings are not sold, and no operator can pay to be placed higher. Commission can, however, influence which operators we have an arrangement with, so you should compare options yourself before choosing.

How to read our rankings and ratings

• Editorial ratings are our own assessment. They are not customer-review scores.
• Rankings reflect factors such as game variety, traffic, bonus terms, payment options, and mobile experience, based on published information and our research.
• We have not claimed to deposit, play, or cash out at every site. Where we describe features, they come from operator information and research, and they may change.
• Rankings are not a guarantee of service quality, withdrawal times, or your experience.

Bonuses and promotions

Offers shown on this site, such as deposit matches or tournament series, are the operators' advertising. They change often and may differ by state or country. Every bonus carries conditions, typically wagering or playthrough requirements, time limits, minimum deposits, game restrictions, and eligibility rules. Read the full terms on the operator's site before you deposit. A bonus is not free money: clearing it usually means playing with your own funds, and you can lose them.

Legal standing and your responsibility in the US

Online poker law in the United States varies by state. Some states regulate real money online poker through a state gaming commission or board. Others restrict or prohibit it. An operator accepting US customers is not the same as being authorized and licensed in your state. You are responsible for checking the laws where you are, confirming the operator's licensing, and following any state rules that apply to you.

We do not claim any specific license or registration for the operators we mention unless it is stated on the page, and we recommend verifying it with the relevant regulator. Some sites listed, including sweepstakes-style platforms, operate under different models from licensed real money poker rooms, so check which model applies before you play.

Responsible gambling

Poker involves risk, and you can lose money. Skill does not remove that risk. Play only with money you can afford to lose, never to recover losses, earn income, or escape stress. Set deposit and time limits, and respect any self-exclusion you have registered with a state program.

Accuracy and changes to information

We work to keep information correct, and we date our checks, but offers, payment options, and availability can change without notice. We give no warranty that content is complete or current. Verify any detail with the operator before acting on it. If you spot an error, let us know through the Contact Us page.

Using the site

• You may read and share our pages for personal, non-commercial use.
• You may not copy, scrape, or republish our content or ratings without permission.
• You may not use the site for unlawful purposes or to appeal to anyone underage.

Third-party links and liability

Links to operators and other sites are provided for convenience. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content, security, payouts, or conduct. To the fullest extent the law allows, Best Online Poker Sites is not liable for any loss, including gambling losses, arising from your use of this site or of any operator we mention.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. The date shown at the top of the page reflects the latest update, and continued use means you accept the current version. To learn more about who we are, visit About Us.
