Here is a complete, detailed guide on how to activate Rakeback on Stake.com, based on your current account situation:
Your Current Account Status
From your screenshot:
- Account: 1a2a3a4
- Current VIP progress: 31.56% toward Silver
- Meaning: You are already at Bronze VIP level (the star icon confirms this)
- Balance: ₹0.00 (INR)
This is great news - because Bronze VIP is the exact level that unlocks Rakeback.
What is Rakeback?
Rakeback is a cash reward where Stake returns 3.5% of the house edge back to you on every bet, regardless of whether you win or lose. It is based on your wagering volume, not your profit/loss.
Example: If you wager 1 BTC on a game with a 2% house edge, you get 0.0007 BTC back as rakeback.
It works on:
- All casino games (slots, table games, live dealer)
- Stake Originals (Dice, Crash, Limbo, etc.)
- Sportsbook bets (3% default house edge applied)
Why Your Rakeback Shows "Pending"
Your account is at Bronze VIP (31.56% toward Silver), which means you have crossed the $10,000 wagering threshold. However, rakeback sometimes does not activate automatically - it needs to be manually triggered in one of two ways.
How to Activate Rakeback - Step by Step
Method 1: Via VIP Page (Self-Claim - Try This First)
- Log into your Stake.com account
- Tap your profile icon (top right of screen)
- Go to VIP section
- Tap on the "Rakeback" tab inside the VIP page
- If there is a pending/unclaimed amount, tap "Claim"
This is the most common fix - the rakeback accumulates silently and you just need to claim it manually.
Method 2: Add a Promo Code (If Never Done Before)
If you registered without entering a referral/promo code, you may not have rakeback activated at all. You had a 24-hour window after registration to add a code.
Steps (if your account was created recently or you never added a code):
- Tap Profile icon (top right)
- Go to Settings
- Tap "Offers"
- Under "Welcome Offer", enter a valid rakeback code (e.g.,
STK4U or another affiliate code)
- Save
Note: This only works if the 24-hour window has not passed. If it has passed, use Method 3.
Method 3: Contact Stake Support (Most Reliable Fix)
Since your rakeback is showing as "pending" and you are already Bronze VIP, the fastest guaranteed fix is live support:
- Tap the Chat button at the bottom of your screen (already visible in your screenshot)
- Start a Support chat
- Tell them: "I am Bronze VIP level and my rakeback is showing as pending. Please activate it on my account."
- A support agent can manually activate it for you
According to Stake's official help center, if rakeback does not activate automatically at Bronze, support will activate it manually. This is a well-known issue and agents handle it routinely.
After Activation - How to Claim Rakeback
Once active:
- Go to Profile > VIP
- Tap the Rakeback tab
- Your accumulated amount will show
- Tap "Claim" - the amount is credited to your wallet instantly
- You can claim at any time - it does not expire
Rakeback % by VIP Level
| VIP Level | Wagering Required | Rakeback % |
|---|
| Bronze | $10,000 | ~3.5% |
| Silver | ~$50,000 | Higher |
| Gold | ~$100,000+ | Higher |
| Platinum+ | Invite only | Highest |
Quick Summary for Your Situation
Since you are already Bronze VIP at 31.56% toward Silver, rakeback should be available. Your fastest path:
- Go to VIP page > Rakeback tab > Claim (try this first)
- If not visible, open Chat > Support and ask them to activate it manually
The rakeback you have already earned from past bets should be waiting for you to claim the moment it is activated.
