About us

clubgg-poker.net is an independent affiliate website dedicated to helping poker players find reliable, time-tested clubs that operate on the ClubGG application. We've been working in the private poker club space for over 5 years. The clubs we list aren't endorsed or vetted by ClubGG itself — they're independently established communities that have proven themselves over years of stable operation, and we've personally verified every single one.

What we do

We are an independent affiliate for established private poker clubs on the ClubGG platform. We don't operate any clubs ourselves — we test, verify, and review them. The clubs we work with have been operating for years, run by experienced agents and managers who built their reputation long before joining the ClubGG ecosystem. We connect players with these time-tested clubs based on stakes, preferred games, and time zone.

Specifically, we:

• Personally play at every club we list, at multiple stake levels, before adding it to our catalog
• Test response times and reliability of each club's assigned manager
• Track game softness metrics (VPIP, PFR, 3-bet stats) so players can pick games matching their style
• Re-verify every listed club on a quarterly basis
• Publish educational content about ClubGG game formats, rakeback structures, unions, and best practices
• Provide free matchmaking — we'll suggest the right verified club based on your situation

What we don't do

We are transparent about our limits:

• We do not operate any poker clubs ourselves — we are an affiliate, not a club
• We do not process payments or hold balances
• We do not provide financial services of any kind
• We only work with clubs we've personally vetted and that have a multi-year track record
• We do not work with unverified clubs, regardless of what they offer
• We are not affiliated with, owned by, or endorsed by ClubGG, NSUS Limited, or GGPoker

Important: these are not ClubGG's clubs

A common misconception we want to clear up: the clubs listed on our site are not operated by ClubGG itself. ClubGG (operated by NSUS Limited) provides the software platform — the poker application — but it doesn't run individual clubs. Every club on the ClubGG platform is an independent operation, with its own ownership, management, and player community.

Some of the clubs we work with have been running for half a decade or longer, originally on other private platforms before consolidating on ClubGG. They came with established player bases, professional management teams, and proven payout reliability. That's why we trust them — not because ClubGG endorses them (they don't endorse individual clubs at all), but because we've watched them operate consistently for years.

How we earn

We're transparent: as an affiliate, we earn commissions from the clubs we work with when we introduce them to active players. This is the standard model in our industry. We are paid by the clubs, not by you — our matchmaking service is free for players.

Importantly, this doesn't compromise our reviews. We've removed clubs from our catalog in the past for failing to meet our standards, even though they paid us commissions. Our long-term reputation depends on honest reviews and reliable recommendations, not on maximizing short-term revenue.

Why we're different from random Telegram channels

You can find dozens of Telegram channels and Discord servers claiming to offer "the best ClubGG clubs." Most of them have never tested the clubs they recommend, and many have ghosted players after taking referral fees.

What makes us different:

• 5+ years in the industry. Not a new operation — we've been doing this since before ClubGG was the dominant platform
• Personal testing. We've played thousands of hands at every club we list, at our own bankroll, before adding it to the catalog
• Verified track record. Every club we recommend has been operational for years, not weeks
• Transparency. Every club's union, ID, focus games, and average traffic is published openly
• Editorial independence. We've turned down clubs that wanted to pay for placement
• Continuous re-verification. We re-test every club quarterly to ensure ongoing quality

Our editorial principles

• Test before recommending. We never list a club we haven't personally tested for months
• Honest reviews. If a club has weaknesses, we say so — even if it costs us referral revenue
• No paid placement. Ranking in our catalog is based on quality and track record, not how much a club pays
• Player wellbeing first. We refuse to match players we believe have a problem with poker — see our Responsible Gaming page
• Privacy by default. We don't share user information with clubs or third parties beyond what's needed for introductions
