Before Downloading Americas Cardroom

Although they are a great site for online poker, Americas Cardroom are not a good option if you enjoy betting on sports, or playing casino games. If you plan to do either, we strongly recommend joining DitoBet instead (by clicking the image below). If you are sure you want to download Americas Cardroom, you can skip to our detailed download instructions.

Unlike Americas Cardroom, DitoBet offer sign-up bonuses for Casino (€900) and Sports (€200). They also offer far more games and betting options, as well as a much more user-friendly software. However, their poker network traffic is rather low, and they do not accept US players.

If you live in the US, or want more poker traffic, instead we recommend downloading Bovada.

Like DitoBet (but unlike Americas Cardroom), Bovada offer a sign-up bonus for Casino ($3,000) and Sports ($250), as well as reward points that you earn regardless of whether you're playing poker, betting on sports, or gambling in the casino. They also offer far more betting options, and a much wider variety of casino games. They also accept US players. 

However, if you only plan to play poker, then Americas Cardroom is probably your best option. They have plenty of traffic, charge low rake, and offer excellent rewards. You can also download Americas Cardroom for poker, and either DitoBet or Bovada for casino and sports.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Is Americas Cardroom Legit? +

    In a word, YES! Even though the site isn't licensed, and have had issues with bots in the past, they also have a 20 year history without any major scandals, and have worked tirelessly in recent years to remove all bots from the site.

    Americas Cardroom is the flagship poker site of the Winning Poker Network, which was launched in 2001 (under the previous name MyPokerNetwork). In addition to operating the longest-running online poker network, WPN have also hosted numerous live events, including the Latin Poker Series from 2009 to 2014, the Punta Cana Poker Classic from 2010 to 2017, and the Cage Live in 2018 and 2019, where players are given a behind the scenes tour of their operations in Costa Rica.

    There are three main reasons that the legitimacy of Americas Cardroom is sometimes questioned:
    1. The site is not licensed by any gaming commissions. While this sounds like a big deal, it really isn't. The 3 biggest online poker scandals were all committed by licensed sites (Full Tilt used players' funds for day-to-day operations, leaving them short by about $184M when those players tried to cash out; Absolute Poker and Ultimate Bet cheated players out of approximately $20M by using superuser accounts to look at their hidden hole cards during play; PokerStars, Full Tilt, and Absolute Poker were all indicted for bank fraud and money laundering for processing transfers to and from US-based players in an attempt to circumvent the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act). It should be noted that none of these breaches were identified by the licensing companies!
    2. In the past, Americas Cardroom was accused of turning a blind eye to bots. While bots have always been an issue in online poker, it was especially bad on Americas Cardroom, PartyPoker and 888 Poker. In April of 2019, Americas Cardroom took major steps to identify and remove bots from their site, and even re-imbursed affected players.
    3. Although it's illegal for US residents to play real money online poker, Americas Cardroom continues to accept US-based players. Critics of the site often use this to justify calling ACR an "illegal" poker site. However, Americas Cardroom is not based in the US and thus are not bound by their laws. As long as they're not committing crimes in the US to circumvent these laws (like PokerStars et. al. did), then ACR are not breaking the law any more than a Canadian convenience store is when they sell a Kinder Surprise to an American tourist!

    Although you should always be at least a little wary when playing online poker, Americas Cardroom is as trustworthy as any other online poker site. Common sense tells us that online poker companies are making too much money to risk it all to cheat their players. Unfortunately, history has shown us that too often greed trumps common sense. However, everything we have seen over the past two decades suggests that Americas Cardroom are a legit online poker site.
  • Is Americas Cardroom Safe to Download? +

    Americas Cardroom is absolutely safe to download, as long as you are clicking on a safe Americas Cardroom download link, like those on our site.

    After downloading any poker site download installation software, it's very possible that your anti-virus program will flag the program as unsafe. However, this is almost always a false flag and you should feel confident ignoring it. You may also receive a similar false flag warning when you try to run the installation program.

    As with most online poker sites, your download should be safe as long as you:
    1. Are downloading a trustworthy poker site, like Americas Cardroom, and
    2. Download the installation software from a trustworthy site, like toppokervalue.com
  • How to Deposit on Americas Cardroom? +

    Making a deposit to your Americas Cardroom account is very easy!
    1. Download and install Americas Cardroom client software.
    2. Launch the Americas Cardroom program (AmericasCardroom.exe), and create an Americas Cardroom account.
    3. Open the Cashier (by clicking the big red "Cashier" button in the bottom right of the poker lobby.
    4. Click the big red "Deposit" button.
    5. Select your preferred method of deposit (Visa, Mastercard, bitcoin, ecopayz, Neteller, etc.).
    6. Enter your deposit details, and then click the green "Next" button.

    Depending on your deposit method, your funds should arrive in your account in a matter of minutes!

  • Are There Deposit Fees on Americas Cardroom? +

    Most methods of deposit on Americas Cardroom do not include any fees. The only exception to this is deposits made with VISA, for which there is a 10% deposit fee.

    In the past, Americas Cardroom have waived this fee if you deposit $300 or more. Technically, the fee is still paid, but Americas Cardroom pay it on your behalf. However, you should check first with Americas Cardroom Support to ensure they are still waiving the fee for Visa deposits in excess of $300. 

    If you want to use your VISA card, but do not want to pay a 10% fee, another option is to create a NETELLER account. NETELLER will charge you a 5% fee for VISA deposits, but no fee for depositing from NETELLER into your Americas Cardroom account.
