Best ClubGG Unions in 2026, Ranked

USA Poker Clubs logoBy USA Poker Clubs Updated

The best ClubGG union for most players in 2026, in our experience, is Massiv. It has the strongest security setup we know of, tables running 24/7, and the widest game selection, from NL Hold'em to PLO6 and tournaments. Below, we rank all three ClubGG unions we work with and explain exactly why, using only what we can verify.

A quick note on where we stand: we partner with a club in every union on this list. That's how we can point you to a specific Club ID for each one. It also means we're not a neutral party, so we've kept the reasoning tied to concrete facts you can check. If you're new to how unions work, read what is a ClubGG union? first, or start at our ClubGG guide for USA players.

How we rank the best ClubGG unions

We weigh six things. Some matter more to you than others depending on your stakes and games, so use these as a checklist, not gospel.

  1. Security. GPS and IP restrictions, collusion and bot monitoring, and real enforcement when someone breaks the rules.
  2. Liquidity and 24/7 action. Can you find a game at your stake at 3 a.m. on a Tuesday?
  3. Game variety. NL Hold'em and PLO are the baseline. PLO5, PLO6, Hi-Lo, Sit & Gos and tournaments are a plus.
  4. Rakeback. What our partner club in the union pays players back. See ClubGG rakeback explained for how it works.
  5. Settlement reliability. Clean weekly accounting between the union and clubs, so clubs can pay players on time.
  6. Support. Someone to answer when something goes wrong.

One thing no ranking can change: ClubGG club poker is unregulated. The app doesn't handle real money; clubs and agents settle with players off the app. There's no deposit insurance and no legal recourse if someone doesn't pay. Start small and test a cashout early, whichever union you choose. Our deposits and cashouts guide covers how that works.

All three run 24/7 through our partner clubs.

1. Massiv: best overall

Massiv is the only union on this list where we can speak to every one of our criteria, and it scores well on all of them.

  • Security: GPS and IP restrictions, anti-cheating monitoring, and a zero-tolerance policy for violations.
  • Games: NL Hold'em, PLO, PLO5, PLO6, Hi-Lo, Sit & Gos and multi-table tournaments.
  • Action: Tables run 24/7.
  • Promotions: Deposit bonuses, rakeback incentives and tournament bonuses.
  • Support: 24/7 support.
  • Settlement: Weekly itemized accounting for club owners, with club rakeback tiers of 70% base, 75% above 5k and 80% above 10k.

Through our partner club Saloon, you get every game at every stake, 25-70% rakeback, and no referral ID needed. If you only join one ClubGG club, this is the one we'd point you to. We wrote more about it in why Massiv stands out.

2. TMT: best for moving up from low to medium stakes

Through our partner club Red Carpet, TMT offers all games at micro, low and medium stakes, 24/7, with 25-70% rakeback. That makes it the only union on this list besides Massiv where our club reaches medium stakes.

It ranks second because it matches Massiv on game variety and rakeback range in our data, but we don't have verified details on TMT's security tools or union-level support, so we can't rank it above a union where we do.

3. Back Tees Only: best for all-games players at micro and low stakes

Our partner club Frontier gives you all games at micro and low stakes, 24/7, with 25-70% rakeback, and no referral ID needed. If you want the full game menu but don't plan to play above low stakes, Frontier covers you.

That's everything our data shows. We haven't verified anything more about Back Tees Only as a union, including its security tools, size, settlement or support, so we won't make claims about them. It ranks third because its stakes range stops at low in our data and because we can say less about it than about Massiv or TMT. If union-level details matter to you, ask the club directly before you deposit.

What about unions not on this list?

There are other ClubGG unions. We only rank the ones where we have a partner club, because those are the only ones where we can speak from experience and give you a working Club ID. Leaving a union off doesn't mean it's bad; it means we haven't vetted it.

If you're evaluating a union we don't cover, use the six criteria above. Ask the club directly about security rules, settlement timing and payment methods (which vary by club). A reputable club will answer plainly.

Picking the right one for you

  • Want everything in one place, any stake? Massiv, via Saloon.
  • Playing low now but planning to move up to medium? TMT, via Red Carpet.
  • Micro or low stakes, want the full game menu? Back Tees Only, via Frontier.
  • Prefer a smaller private game? Sweet Holdem Alabama, our private club outside any union, runs NL Hold'em and PLO at medium stakes on Mondays and Wednesdays (referral ID 7781-5006).

Every club above, plus our private club, is listed with full joining details in the ClubGG club directory. If you want help choosing, contact us and we'll match you with a club. For step-by-step setup, see how to join a ClubGG club.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best ClubGG union in 2026?

In our experience, Massiv is the best ClubGG union in 2026. It combines GPS and IP restrictions, anti-cheating monitoring, 24/7 tables, the widest game selection we've seen, and weekly itemized accounting for clubs. You can join it through our partner club, Saloon (Club ID 736985).

Are these rankings sponsored?

We partner with a club in each union on this list, so we're not neutral. The rankings reflect our own experience and the data in our club directory, and we only make claims about each union that we can back up.

Which ClubGG union is best for low stakes?

All three unions we work with have micro and low stakes games, and our partner club in each offers all games at those levels. TMT (via Red Carpet) and Back Tees Only (via Frontier) are built around smaller games. Our best low-stakes ClubGG clubs page ranks them in detail.

Does the union decide my rakeback?

Your rakeback comes from your club, and the union influences what the club can afford to pay. Our partner clubs in all three unions offer 25-70%. See ClubGG rakeback explained for how it's calculated.

How do I join a specific ClubGG union?

You join a club that belongs to that union by entering its Club ID in the app. Once approved, you get access to the union's shared tables. Our how to join a ClubGG club guide walks through it.
