Actual PokerStars rakeback 2017

I've just made an ultimate PokerStars rekeback table based on a couple of old tables from different forums and an official StarsCoin table. It includes rakeback by step, cumulative total rakeback and cumulative rakeback by VIP status. Hope you find it as useful as I do :f_biggrin: If you have any questions, feel free to ask!
Here is the link (don't know how long will it last)!

VPP per dollar of rake is adjustable. By default it's 5.5 on PokerStars, but if you play microlimit cash games or use currency other than USD it should be different (details here). Just replace 5.5 with your actual value, and the table should recalculate everything automatically.

Edit: The existing PokerStars rakeback system will soon be scrapped as this article indicates and replaced with something dramatically different. Many players received this email, which clearly states that we won't like these changes. Before that happens, my table remains up to date.

Rakeback is a way to represent the PokerStars loyalty program (in PokerStars case it includes the VIP statuses and varying StarsCoins rewards tied to them) in the way of percentage of rake being refunded to us. Basically, the higher VIP status you achieve, the more StarsCoins you get per dollar of rake paid. Knowing that 1 StarsCoin=1 Cent=$0,01 we can make a conclusion that Rakeback=Refunded money/Paid rake money, and that's exactly what this table represents.

i received an email from pokerstars today

dear player(edited),

We are excited to announce that later this summer - as early as July - we will be launching Stars Rewards, our new rewards program. Stars Rewards offers an exciting, personalised gaming experience that rewards players for their real money play in poker, casino and sports (where available) so that you can make every game count.

With Stars Rewards you earn points that give you Chests filled with a variety of rewards personalised to the games you like to play. Every Chest offers you the chance at winning a big prize, and the more you play, the bigger the Chests you’ll receive. You can also earn double points via daily boosts.

From the launch of Stars Rewards, the rewards you receive will be based on the new mechanics of the program, and VIP statuses and the rewards associated with the current VIP Club program will be discontinued. You’ll receive the full prorated value of your current VIP Step when the new program launches.

Got the same email about 8 hours ago so its looking like the change will happen anywhere from 1 to 2 months from now for most countries.
