The road to Las Vegas is officially open. WPT Global has announced the launch of its satellite schedule for the 2025 WPT® World Championship, offering players the chance to turn as little as $1.10 into a $12,400 package for one of the biggest poker events of the year at Wynn Las Vegas this December.
The package is one of the most comprehensive yet, including a $10,400 buy-in to the Main Event, a $2,000 travel stipend, exclusive WPT merchandise, access to the VIP Lounge, and a special player party at Wynn. To top it off, winners carry a unique Golden Ticket — a $100,000 bonus if a satellite qualifier goes on to win the World Championship outright.
With WPT Global already seeing surging demand for its promotions, the return of satellites comes at a pivotal moment for players hoping to secure their seat on poker’s biggest stage. The entire campaign runs until November 30, with feeder satellites starting this week.

Qualify for the WPT World Championship
Satellites for the 2025 WPT® World Championship began September 21 and are running every Sunday through November 30, culminating in a $1,060 Qualifier Final that awards full $12,400 packages.
There are three feeder routes available to cater to every bankroll:
- $1.10 → $11 → $110 → $1,060
- $5 → $55 → $1,060
- $22 → $220 → $1,060
Each step provides a chance to parlay into the next level — ultimately leading to a full package that covers both the Main Event entry and travel expenses. Importantly, all winners must play Day 1A on December 13 at Wynn Las Vegas. Packages are non-refundable, though transfers are permitted if both parties are fully verified.
Each package includes:
- $10,400 entry to the WPT® World Championship Main Event (Day 1A — December 13)
- $2,000 travel expenses credited directly to the player’s WPT Global account
- $100,000 Golden Ticket bonus if the player wins the Championship
- Exclusive WPT Global × World Championship merchandise
- VIP Lounge and player party access
- Preferential hotel rates at Wynn Las Vegas
Beyond the buy-in and travel expenses, the standout feature is the $100,000 Golden Ticket Champion Bonus. Any player who qualifies through a WPT Global satellite and then wins the World Championship will receive an extra $100K added on top of their Main Event prize. However, this bonus only applies if the tournament plays to its natural conclusion — deals or prize chops void the offer.
For players with Passport Dollars (PP$), those funds can also be used to buy into the WPT World Championship and side events scheduled between December 2–22 at Wynn. This flexibility ensures even more ways for players to maximize their bankroll management heading into the winter festival.
Players must be fully verified under Know Your Customer (KYC) requirements by December 6, 2025, to remain eligible. Winners of multiple packages will use their first seat on Day 1A, with additional tickets valid for subsequent starting flights. Transfers are permitted but must meet strict verification standards, and associated perks like the Golden Ticket cannot be transferred.
Cancelled Freeroll Series — When It Returns
Fans of the wildly successful Crazy Freeroll Series — which was set to award millions in prize pools during August — were disappointed when WPT Global announced an immediate pause due to overwhelming demand. The freerolls had included the $100K Super Crazy Freeroll and other high-value no-cost tournaments that drew record numbers.
While paused for now, WPT Global has emphasized that these freerolls are not gone forever. Instead, they are expected to return later in the year once server and schedule stability is assured. The goal is to prevent technical issues caused by the massive influx of players chasing free seats and large guaranteed pools.
When it returns, the freeroll series is expected to once again feature six-figure guarantees, multiple daily tournaments, and creative branding designed to attract both new signups and long-time grinders.
$15,000 Indonesia Freeroll Series
In the meantime, regional promotions are carrying the load. Kicking off September 22, WPT Global will run the $15,000 Indonesia Freeroll Series exclusively for players in Indonesia.
Running September 22–28 at 20:02 WIB each evening, the “Garuda Firestorm” Freeroll will feature:
- $1,000 guaranteed daily from Monday to Friday
- $5,000 guaranteed on Saturday and Sunday
This week-long freeroll festival is open to all Indonesian players over 18 with no deposit required — another example of WPT Global tailoring events to local markets while still maintaining a global footprint.
The Big Picture
WPT Global’s strategy is clear: build momentum into December’s WPT World Championship at Wynn Las Vegas by offering accessible routes into the Main Event, while also engaging recreational players through freerolls and regional promos.
For as little as $1.10, grinders can chase a seat that has already proven life-changing, with last year’s finalists taking home multimillion-dollar scores. With the added value of the Golden Ticket and a promise to reintroduce its Crazy Freeroll Series soon, WPT Global is positioning itself as the online platform to watch heading into one of poker’s biggest events of 2025.
