WPT Global Review: License, Safety and Where You Can Play
WPT Global is run by Everstronglink Limited, a Costa Rica company licensed by the Tobique Gaming Commission under license number 0000005. Its owner is an official partner of the World Poker Tour, and it serves more than 135 countries, though not the US or UK. Check your own country's rules before you play.
Who runs WPT Global, and what license does it hold?
| Item | What the public record shows |
|---|---|
| Operator | Everstronglink Limited, registered in Costa Rica |
| License | Tobique Gaming Commission, license number 0000005 |
| Payment agent | Kashxa Limited of Cyprus (company number 427606), also the seller of the iOS app |
| Link to the WPT | Owned by a private company that is an official partner of the World Poker Tour |
| Random number generator | The invite page footer shows a GLI certified RNG badge |
| Reach | More than 135 countries, not including the United States |
| iOS app | First released on October 25, 2022, in the Canadian App Store |
These details are spread across WPT Global's site footer, its help center and its App Store listing, and they agree with each other. We confirmed that the GLI badge is displayed; we did not inspect the certificate behind it.
Is WPT Global safe? What can you check yourself?
- The footer. WPT Global's site and invite pages name the operator, the license number and the payment agent, so you can compare them with the table above.
- Where you download. On Android, install only the official APK. A Google Play look-alike from a developer called SCI CAROLE has nothing to do with WPT Global; the download guide has the details.
- Account rules. One account per person; extra accounts are blocked and the money in them can be held.
- Withdrawal rules. The 1x turnover requirement and payouts to your most recent deposit method are both in the official withdrawal policy, summarized in our withdrawal guide.
Forum and social media reviews are mostly individual experiences, and we don't repeat claims we can't check. When accounts contradict each other, go by the official terms and the public registration details.
What can you play on WPT Global?
The poker side covers Texas Hold'em at 6-max and 8-max tables, Omaha with four or five cards, and Short Deck. Tournaments range from MTTs, PKOs and Mystery Bounty events to Sit & Go, freerolls, satellites and three-player Global Spins. A casino section with slots, baccarat, blackjack, roulette and live dealer tables sits in the same app. Most cash-game stakes carry 4% rake with a cap on every hand, and the welcome bonus page covers the rakeback offers.
What are WPT Global's pros and cons?
What works in its favor?
- The operator, license number and payment agent are printed in the footer
- WPT Global charges no deposit or withdrawal fees
- You can start playing without sending ID; checks come at certain thresholds or before your first withdrawal
- Satellites lead to live WPT events, such as WPT Prime Taiwan in January 2027
- Its ambassadors include Phil Ivey, Pete Chen, DinTer, Egption and Fintan Hand
What should you watch out for?
- The iOS app is in the App Store only in some countries
- Payment methods vary by region, and you only see your options in the cashier
- Requesting a withdrawal forfeits every active bonus
- Many countries are restricted, including the United States and the United Kingdom
- After 13 months without a login the account becomes dormant, and fees can follow

Which countries can play WPT Global?
WPT Global says it is available in more than 135 countries. Clause 2.5.2 of its terms lists the regions it does not serve, among them the United States, the United Kingdom, Hong Kong, mainland China, Japan, the Philippines, Singapore and India, along with many more. The terms also ban using a VPN, proxy or location tool to hide or change where you are, and treat accessing the site from a restricted region as a breach in itself.
Legality is a separate question. Online poker laws differ from country to country, and not appearing on WPT Global's restricted list says nothing about whether playing is legal where you live. We don't give legal advice or draw conclusions for any country; check your local rules, or ask a qualified adviser if you are unsure.
Who do you contact if something goes wrong? Can you take a break?
WPT Global uses one email address for support and complaints (it is in the FAQ below), and its deposit and withdrawal pages also offer live chat. Its dispute resolution page says you will be told the outcome within 10 days of WPT Global receiving your dispute.
To take a break, email support and ask for a time-limited or permanent self-exclusion; it covers the poker and casino products alike. WPT Global's responsible gaming page also points players to GamCare for support. You must be 18 or over to play, and if gambling stops being fun, contact a support service in your country.
