Чем занимается PokerClubHub

TL;DR: PokerClubHub is the first licensed poker club platform. We protect players’ deposits and allow anyone to open their own poker club and make money. Regulated online poker sites like PokerStars have open player pools and thus are full of pros and bots, driving players to unregulated private clubs. Existing poker club platforms like ClubGG have no payments processing. Players deposit with a club owner by sending them crypto for play-money chips. In theory, these chips can be exchanged back for money. However, players can get scammed and withdrawing takes ages. This model is also broken for honest club owners who have to manually process hundreds of deposits a day. They lose out on rake when they sleep and struggle to get players to trust them. On PokerClubhub, players deposit with PokerClubHub, not the club owner. We handle all deposits and withdrawals for the club owner, saving them time and increasing their earnings. We pay the rake (if any) to club owners as affiliate fees. We hold the same gaming license as BetHog (built by founders of FanDuel) and Nexa Poker (part of World Poker Tour). Player deposits are secured using Fireblocks. You can also play rake-free games with your friends and acquaintances on our platform. We ensure that everyone pays up.

Host a Poker Club and Make Money

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

PokerClubHub is a licensed online platform that lets anyone launch their own poker club. Players deposit directly with us, not with the club owner, and we handle all payments and withdrawals. We protect player deposits, automate financial flows for club owners, and distribute affiliate fees instead of traditional rake. Our platform makes it safe and easy to run a real-money poker club without manual payments or worrying about scams.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We are in Jaco, Puntarenas Province, Costa Rica. After YC, the company would remain based here.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We're based in Costa Rica because it's a hub for online gaming and offers a regulated environment for our licensed platform. It's also where the founding team is located.

Часто задаваемые вопросы

Это реальная заявка PokerClubHub в YC?

Нет. Y Combinator держит поданные заявки в приватности. Это реконструкция: реальные вопросы формы YC, ответы на которые основаны на публичных данных PokerClubHub (заметки о запуске, бэкграунд фаундеров, описание продукта). Это показывает, как компания вроде PokerClubHub представила бы себя YC, а не текст, который они подали.
