Decided to at last after many years actually move to pokerstars ( yeah i've never deposited there only played like 2-3 sunday millys + a dozen of small tournaments before) however I really dont understand the FPP/VPP system and how their "rakeback" works. Can anyone give me some graph or something like that which explains it

u earn VPPs, after every x VPPs u can get a $$$ bonus

every VPP earned is multiplied by y (depending on monthly vpp count((supernova, platinum, etc))) to get FPPs

after every x FPPs u can get a $$$ bonus

FPP bonuses are always the same, but VPP bonuses increase (300k VPP bonus is higher than 200k VPP one)

Spitfiree, for every hand that pokerstars rakes there is a percentage of the rake assigned to you by means of vpps. vpps are always the same regardless of your vip status. The fpps you get vary based on your vip status, for example a supernova player gets 3.5 fpps per each vpp that he earns, supernova elite gets 5fpp/vpp, platinum gets 2.5fpp/vpp. So the higher status you have the higher percentage of rake you get returned. fpps can be traded for tourney entries, cash, merchandise etc in the vip store.

there are no facts only interpretations
