If you’ve been playing WSOP solo this whole time, you might be missing out on one of the better chip-earning systems in the game. Clubs are basically teams you can join to compete together, earn collective rewards, and participate in club-only events. Here’s how the whole thing works.

What Is a Club in WSOP?
A Club is a group of players who team up inside the game. Think of it like a guild in an RPG. You join one, you’re part of that group, and your activity contributes to the club’s overall standing. Clubs have their own leaderboards, events, and reward pools separate from the regular game.
How to Join a Club
You can browse available Clubs from the Clubs menu in the app. Some clubs are open to anyone, you just tap to join. Others require an invitation or approval from the club leader. If you have friends playing WSOP, they might already be in a Club and can send you an invite directly.
When picking a Club, look at their activity level. A club with dozens of active members is going to earn way more collective rewards than one where half the members haven’t logged in for weeks.
Club Events and Competitions
Clubs compete against each other in periodic events. The exact format changes, but it usually involves members accumulating points through regular gameplay during a set window. Your individual results feed into the club’s total score. Clubs that finish high in these competitions earn bonus rewards distributed to all members.
Club Leaderboards
Inside your Club, there’s a leaderboard showing each member’s contribution. This creates friendly competition within the group too. Top contributors sometimes get a larger share of the club reward pool, so it pays to stay active when events are running.
Starting Your Own Club
If you’d rather run things yourself, you can create your own Club. There’s usually a chips fee to start one, so you’ll need a decent bankroll before going that route. Once it’s created, you set the name, the entry requirements, and you recruit members. Running a successful Club takes consistent effort since you need to keep members engaged and active.
Club Chat
Most active Clubs use the in-app chat to coordinate during events, share tips, and keep things social. If you’re in a club where nobody is talking, that’s usually a sign the group isn’t very active. Moving to a more engaged Club can make a big difference in how much you actually earn.
Club Rewards
Clubs earn chips and other prizes that get distributed to members based on participation. The better your Club performs collectively, the bigger the payout. This is honestly one of the most underrated ways to earn free chips in WSOP because you’re benefiting from the whole group’s effort, not just your own sessions.
Bottom line: find an active Club, participate in events, and you’ll notice a real bump in your weekly chip earnings. It’s one of those features a lot of casual players ignore, but regular players swear by it.
