The Stake referral code is SHIMA. It is currently active and verified. Entering it during registration on Stake.com activates a 200% deposit bonus and a permanent 5% rakeback on every wager. Both benefits run from the moment your first deposit lands. The code cannot be added to an existing account — registration is the only opportunity.

Code: SHIMA

Bonus: 200% deposit match. Deposit $100, receive $200 bonus, play with $300.

Rakeback: 5% of every dollar wagered returned as real cash. No cap. No expiration. No wagering requirements on the rakeback.

Where to enter: the Code field at the bottom of the Stake.com registration form. Click to expand if it appears collapsed.

Status: active.

Stake.com matches your first deposit at 200%. This is double what most platforms offer — the standard across the industry is 100%.

$10 deposit: play with $30. $50 deposit: play with $150. $200 deposit: play with $600. $500 deposit: play with $1,500. $1,000 deposit: play with $3,000.

The bonus is credited as funds you can wager with immediately. A 40x wagering requirement applies before the bonus portion becomes withdrawable. This means a $100 deposit with $200 bonus ($300 total) requires $12,000 in total wagers before withdrawal. All profits earned during this process are real and yours to keep.

The wagering requirement is standard for the industry. What is not standard is the 200% rate — most competitors cap at 100%.

This is where the long-term value lives.

Every dollar you wager on Stake.com returns 5% as cash. Not calculated on losses — calculated on total volume. A $1,000 wager returns $50 whether you won $500 or lost $200 on that session. The rakeback is volume-based, not outcome-based.

No wagering requirements. The moment the rakeback hits your balance, it is real money. Withdraw it to your wallet that same minute if you want.

No cap. There is no monthly maximum, no annual limit, no point at which the 5% stops.

No expiration. The rakeback runs for the lifetime of your account. Every wager you ever place on Stake.com earns 5% back.

At $2,000 wagered per month: $100 back. $1,200 per year. At $8,000 per month: $400 back. $4,800 per year. At $20,000 per month: $1,000 back. $12,000 per year. At $50,000 per month: $2,500 back. $30,000 per year.

The deposit bonus is a sprint — a one-time boost. The rakeback is a marathon — a permanent stream that often surpasses the bonus within the first few months of active play.

Go to Stake.com. Click Register.

Enter your email address, choose a username, set a password, enter your date of birth, and select your country.

Every product on Stake.com generates rakeback when you register with SHIMA.

Stake Originals — over 30 in-house games including Crash, Plinko, Mines, Dice, Limbo, Keno, and Dragon Tower. All provably fair with cryptographically verifiable outcomes. These carry the lowest house edges on the platform, making the 5% rakeback proportionally most impactful here.

Table games — blackjack, roulette, baccarat, poker in multiple variations.

Live dealer — real dealers streaming in real time. Blackjack, roulette, baccarat, and game shows including Crazy Time, Monopoly Live, and Dream Catcher.

Sportsbook — 30+ sports including football, basketball, UFC, tennis, cricket, F1, baseball, hockey, boxing, and rugby. Pre-match and live in-play betting.

Every wager. Every product. Every time. 5%.

Stake operates a VIP system from Bronze through Obsidian with each tier unlocking larger weekly bonuses, monthly rewards, daily reloads, and at the highest levels a personal VIP host. Every wager earns VIP XP toward the next tier.

The 5% rakeback from SHIMA is independent from VIP rewards. It does not replace them. Both run simultaneously on the same wagers. As your VIP tier increases and bonuses grow, the 5% rakeback continues underneath — a constant base layer of returns that never stops regardless of which VIP tier you sit at.

This is the single most important detail about the Stake referral code.

Stake.com does not support retroactive code entry. There is no settings page for it. There is no support ticket that adds it. There is no 14-day grace period. The Code field exists only during the registration process, and the window closes permanently the moment you submit the form without entering SHIMA.

If you have already registered without the code, the 200% bonus and 5% rakeback are not available on that account. There is no workaround through Stake support.

Not clicking the Code field. It is collapsed by default on the form. It looks optional. It is not optional if you want the 200% bonus and 5% rakeback. Click it. Type SHIMA.

Entering the code in lowercase. SHIMA is all uppercase.

Not understanding the difference between the bonus and the rakeback. The bonus has a 40x wagering requirement. The rakeback has zero. They are separate benefits with separate rules.

Assuming the code can be added later. It cannot.
