Play on the Best No Deposit Poker Sites and Win Real Money

We’ve all heard the stories about the college kid who got $10 in his account from a no deposit poker site and never looked back. In most forms of life, I would forgive you for raising an eyebrow at this kind of tale, but not in online poker.

There are countless examples of players who have gone from zero to multi millionaire status, including Chris Moneymaker who turned $39 into over $2.5m on Pokerstars.

1. Bet365

Bet365 is one of the world’s largest betting companies. Privately owned and operated from the UK, unlike almost all other gaming companies, they are truly a name you can trust.

Their poker software works on all devices and new sign ups enjoy €5 completely free after they sign up with no strings attached.

Of course there are many bonus offers that require a deposit and are more lucrative, but in terms of easy, pain free, real money for simply creating a poker account, Bet365 is without a doubt one of the top options.

If our top pick isn’t ideal for you, or you already have an account, read on to discover the rest of our Top 5 online poker rooms that will give you completely free money without making a deposit.

All rooms in this article have been chosen based on how easy it is to get your free money, traffic, safety and other relevant factors.

2. Unibet

Unibet offers free cash of either £10 or €10 (depending on your country) to users from most territories. The free money is given in the form of some credits to play cash game (€4 at the time of writing) and a number of SNG tickets.

The company is the largest gaming operator in Scandinavia and unlike many other sportsbooks, they seem to have a genuine passion for poker. Running live events such as the Unibet Open, and completely re-developing their software from the ground up, demonstrate this commitment to the game.

3. PaddyPowerPoker

PaddyPower offers a $25 free cash package to all new registrants. The package is made up of $5 completely free and then the rest of the free cash is released depending on how much you play or how far you manage to spin your $5 playing on no deposit poker sites.

Paddy sits on the iPoker network, so has software very similar to Bet365 (mentioned above). They can definitely be trusted as a company, and have a ton of fun promotions.

Additionally, by signing up to Paddy via PokerTube, you will be eligible for some great tournaments we run there exclusively for the PokerTube community.

4. 888Poker

No article about free poker money would be complete without mentioning 888Poker, who are almost certainly the kings of no deposit bonus poker! Users from the UK and some other countries can get up to £88 completely free, but this depends on a few factors.

888 is currently the second largest poker room in the world in terms of traffic, and works on every device. If it’s a room you are not playing at, it’s without a doubt a solid option and you can go from creating an account, to playing real money poker in under five minutes.

5. PKR

If you are the type of person who hunts around for the latest no deposit bonus offers, you have probably stumbled across 888 and maybe a couple of other rooms mentioned in this review. However, it’s unlikely you have checked at PKR.

Offering $10 completely free to new users, PKR are best known as an innovative poker company and the only poker room to pursue 3D software seriously.

As is the case with Bet365, PKR is also owned and operated in the United Kingdom.
