Incremental release of deposit bonus is really frustrating

The way that these bonuses unlock in 10% increments is just maddening and frankly feels manipulative and disrespectful to the player base.

    Deposit bonuses always suck on every poker room. I would prefer to see it easier to hit Phenom tier @33% rakeback

    Hey guys!, Taken your feedback on for this.

    We will look to potentially make some adjustments to the release to be a fixed $ amount instead of being % based. Should make these slightly easier to clear.

    We have had a number of low stakes grinders clear the deposits in full however I do agree that this could be enhanced!

    The main issue I have with it is that it feels punishing for depositing more as the more you deposit, the more in rake you have to generate in absolute terms before hitting a 10% milestone. I think the way it is currently implemented is a pretty common practice across sites, but just because everyone else is doing it doesn’t mean there isn’t room to improve.

    Ideally there would be some in between where the more you deposit, the smaller the increments are. Obviously this is first order not in the financial interest of the site, but I think long term it’s player friendly and can potentially grow the site.

    I feel like every poker deposit bonus I’ve ever gotten in the last 18 years has been incremental. Maybe 5% instead of 10%, but always incremental
