PokerStars VIP Program = PokerStars Rakeback

To start with, there are 6 levels of the VIP program. The highest level in the Poker Stars VIP Club is equivalent to over 50% in rakeback. Poker Stars has six different vip levels, with the first four calculated monthly, while the last two (supernova status) reset yearly.

As you can see, everyone starts out as a "Bronze Star." The more you play, and the bigger stakes you play for, the quicker you move up the VIP ladder. As you move up the tiers, you earn VIP points which can be used for Cash Back Bonuses, Tournament Tickets, Gifts, and even massive items like Trips to Live Events, Cars, and much more.

As you move up you will earn about 10% extra points per level, which effectively means you will receive a higher percentage of your rake back each time you move up a tier. You will really begin to notice the rakeback rewards increasing once you pass the Silver Star level, and especially when you reach the coveted Supernova status.
