GreySnowPoker launches fair and rake-free gaming
First Native American site to obtain an Isle of Man gaming licence
Online poker players will enjoy fair and rake-free play at GreySnowPoker, a brand-new gaming site launched by the Iowa Tribe of Oklahoma through its Isle of Man gaming license. GreySnowPoker is the first Native American owned site to operate under a gaming licence issued by the Isle of Man Gambling Supervisory Commission.
The new platform opens for real-money and play-money games with a determination to provide a relaxed playing environment. At GreySnowPoker, recreational players cannot be easily targeted by exploitive third-party software and seating scripts.
And in an innovative pricing move, the site will be rake free. Rake is traditionally removed from every cash game pot, but GreySnowPoker is proud to introduce a service-fee product called FairPlay. Players pay just one flat fee equivalent to 3% of their stack when they leave the table.
This means that if two players sit down with $100 each in a cash game, the total service-fee will be $6 regardless of how many hands or hours are played. It is entirely possible then that these two players can play heads up indefinitely without rake eating up their stacks. Tournament fees are also targeted to be some of the lowest in the industry.
In the second move towards fairness, GSP has introduced a FairPlay lobby, where a smooth seating logic automatically manages seating behaviour, prevents data mining, and restricts table observation. GSP believes that behaviors such as ‘bum hunting’ are against the spirit of the game.
Further, because of the service fee paid upon leaving a cash game table, more money remains at the table – creating better action for all.
The Iowa Tribe of Oklahoma is known as the Bah Koh-Je, which means People of the Grey Snow. The Tribe operates four land-based casinos in Oklahoma and is looking forward to this new online gaming venture.
Bobby Walkup, chairman of the Iowa Tribe of Oklahoma, said: “We are thrilled to have launched a great new poker site that focuses on fairness. It’s time for a new type of poker room to come along, made by poker lovers, and recognizing what’s best for poker.”
GreySnowPoker’s managing director George McIntosh said: “We hope to shake up the online poker scene by changing the playing experience for the better. Our FairPlay service fee and automatic table seating will make games more user-friendly for recreational players.
“We’re determined to make GreySnowPoker the world’s most reputable online poker destination, leading the way in integrity, innovation, fairness and fun.
“All in all, our FairPlay model should lead to longer time at the table, giving longer to learn, and a longer time that your cash lasts for,” McIntosh explained. “Coupled with random seating, we think that the playing environment will make it more fun, more thrilling and a more level playing-field than other sites.”
“Throughout our journey, we’re also dedicated to promoting the Native American culture and community.”
Poker enthusiasts can visit the GreySnowPoker website to download the poker software or play instantly.
First-time depositors can take advantage of the Match-Me Bonus offer.

Affiliate Announcements
Management Buyout Successfully Completed at ReferOn
ReferOn, an affiliate management platform for the iGaming sector, today revealed the successful conclusion of a management buyout. Former General Manager Alex Bukin purchases the platform, moving the company into its next stage of independent growth. Bukin will take on the position of Chief Executive Officer (CEO) to advance the company.
Assessing the platform’s path three years after its launch, Alex Bukin, CEO of ReferOn remarked: “This is a significant moment for ReferOn and marks the start of a new phase for the company.” The management buyout offers us the long-term perspective needed to consistently enhance the platform. We uphold our dedication to product development, enhancing our solutions for partners, and facilitating ReferOn’s ongoing expansion in significant markets.
The acquisition comes after a significant phase of advancement for the firm. Established on a base of operational effectiveness and scalable technology, ReferOn persists in expanding its footprint throughout the industry. In its initial year, the platform announced 35.7 million clicks, 2.4 million sign-ups, 18,000 affiliates, and 136,000 active trackers. The company’s extensive range of tools enhances flexibility for operators and affiliates, generating momentum that recently led to ReferOn being recognized as the “Best Affiliate Platform” in 2025 and 2026 by key industry players.
This change will not impact daily operations; assistance and current collaborations will continue as normal. As part of its continuous growth strategy, ReferOn is enhancing its product lineup with the introduction of new features, such as Refie, the integrated interface layer of the platform. The platform continually improves user experience and security via dynamic reporting, Company Grouping, Sub-Affiliation, Independent Deal Calculation (IDC), two-factor authentication (2FA), and thorough mobile optimization.
To maintain operational continuity, the current leadership team stays intact, guaranteeing stability as the company moves into its next phase of growth. With Bukin’s appointment as CEO, Vlad Bondarenko has moved from Head of Product to Chief Product Officer, and David Harris, who was previously Operations Lead, has become Chief Operations Officer. As the organization embarks on its next phase, it continues to prioritize equipping operators with top-tier tools and a dedication to providing the future of affiliate management.
