## Your club, your app, your rules

PokerBros made it easy to start a club. As your club grows, it stops being enough: your players download someone else’s app, see someone else’s brand and play under someone else’s terms.

Silent Aces gives you a different path. We build, host and support **your own branded poker app** for iOS, Android, web and desktop, with your own payments and location checks set for where you accept players. Most clubs are live 2 to 4 weeks after the first call. We work with you as a technology partner, not a landlord.

## Why club owners move off PokerBros

- **It’s PokerBros’ app, not yours.** Players install PokerBros and see PokerBros’ brand. Your club is one name in their lobby, and every hand builds their brand instead of yours.
- **Your club runs on their terms.** On any shared club app, the platform writes the rules and decides whether a club stays open. You can’t change that.
- **Money usually moves outside the app.** On shared club apps, buy-ins and cash-outs are commonly settled by hand through agents and transfers. With Silent Aces, deposits and withdrawals run through your own payment setup.
- **Little room to make it yours.** The lobby, the look and the way players are rewarded are the same for every club on the platform.
- **Their brand on every screen.** Whatever apps PokerBros offers carry PokerBros’ name. Silent Aces gives your players iOS, Android, web and desktop (Windows and macOS) apps under **your** name.

## “If my club is closed, where do my players go?”

On PokerBros, your players are PokerBros users first and your members second. If your club is closed, they stay on PokerBros and you lose the relationship. On Silent Aces the app carries your brand and player accounts live on your own platform, so the community stays with your club.

## Silent Aces vs a PokerBros club

| Feature | Club on PokerBros | Silent Aces |
|---|---|---|
| App brand | PokerBros’ | **Yours, in the app stores** |
| Platforms | PokerBros’ apps | **Your own iOS, Android, web and desktop apps** |
| Payments | Usually settled outside the app | **Crypto via NOWPayments; cards and bank via Approvely** |
| Rakeback | Up to the club and its agents | **Paid to the player’s balance, withdrawable** |
| Promotions | Set by the platform | **Jackpots, leaderboards, refer-a-friend** |
| Player list | Users of PokerBros | **Accounts on your own platform** |
| Support | The platform’s | **Hosted and supported for you, 24/7** |

## What runs on your Silent Aces app

- **Cash games:** Texas Hold’em, PLO 4/5/6, Big O and mixed games, with Bomb Pots, Double Board and Run It Multiple Times.
- **Tournaments:** multi-table tournaments, freerolls and multi-day events.
- **Social play:** voice and video chat at the table.
- **Agents:** multi-level agents and sub-agents, each with their own login, and a rake share you set per agent.
- **Admin panel:** players, tables, rake, time-based fees, agents and affiliates, with rake, player-activity and agent-settlement reports you can export to CSV and PDF.
- **Promotions:** bad beat and high-hand jackpots, leaderboards and refer-a-friend tracking.
- **Rakeback and loyalty:** rakeback is paid to the player’s real-money balance and can be withdrawn. Loyalty coins are played on cash games, and winnings can be withdrawn. You set the rules for your club.
- **Fair play:** iTech Labs certified RNG, location checks with fake-GPS detection, VPN and proxy detection, and fraud and bot detection.

If you also run a live poker room, one player ID, one rakeback program and one loyalty wallet can cover both your tables and your app. Club staff record live sessions, rake and time fees against each player’s ID in the admin panel.

## How moving your club works

1. **Discovery call:** we learn how your club runs today: games, stakes, rake, agents and the places you serve.
2. **Your brand:** your name, logo and colours on the app for iOS, Android, web and desktop.
3. **Payments and location rules:** crypto through NOWPayments, cards and bank transfers through Approvely, and location checks set for where you accept players.
4. **Invite your players:** players and agents join through your club or agent invite links and register fresh on your app. You settle old balances from the shared app yourself; we don’t import accounts or balances.
5. **Go live:** usually 2 to 4 weeks after the first call. We host, update and support the platform 24/7, and you run the club.

## Your investment

- **Platform Launch:** $1,500 one-time setup and $500/month, plus a revenue share of up to 10% of GGR.
- **Dedicated Platform:** $5,000 setup and $1,000/month on dedicated servers, plus a revenue share of up to 10% of GGR.

Payment processing fees from NOWPayments and Approvely are paid by the club. How the setup fee works against the revenue share: details on your demo call.

## Frequently Asked Questions

**Can I move my PokerBros club to my own app?**

Yes. We set up your branded app, then you invite your players and agents with your club or agent links. They register fresh on your app, and you settle old PokerBros balances yourself.

**How long does it take to launch?**

Usually 2 to 4 weeks from the first call to a live branded app, depending on your branding and payment setup.

**Can I keep my agents?**

Yes. Agents are multi-level (agent, sub-agent and further levels), each with their own login, and you set a rake share for each agent. Multi-club unions with shared tables on one platform are on our roadmap; today each club runs its own agent network.

**Do I need my own payment gateway?**

No. Crypto through NOWPayments and cards and bank transfers through Approvely are already integrated, so deposits and withdrawals happen inside your app. The processing fees are paid by the club.

**Will my players get a desktop app?**

Yes. Along with iOS, Android and web, your players get a Windows and macOS desktop app under your brand.

**Is real-money play allowed?**

Rules for online poker differ by country and state. This is not legal advice; confirm your setup with a gaming lawyer before you open. The club holds whatever licences its market requires, and Silent Aces provides the location and fraud controls to enforce them.
