Bonus based Profits

At the heart of ProPath lies the innovative bonus structure. Under ProPath, you will receive a portion of profit, after coaching, upon the completion of 100 entries or a “bonus cycle”. 

The bonus cycles eliminates the adversarial nature of markup and lets us truly support your journey and invest in your success.

Core Program Details

Cycle Structure

Each ProPath cycle consists of 100 tournament entries, to be completed within an 18-month period.

Bonus Reward

At the end of the cycle, players receive a performance bonus between 20% and 25%, based on profit.

Buy-Ins at Face Value

All action is taken at face value. There are no hidden fees or markups.

Minimum Share Requirement

For an entry to count toward your 100, you must offer at least 25% of that tournament to us (we may choose to take less).

Coaching

We go beyond financial backing; it’s about YOU and YOUR GAME – for every dollar of action we purchase and that you play, you’ll receive 3% CNCPoker credits. 

CNC has some of today’s best players and coaches from live and online doing group sessions – along with affordable 1on1 sessions with coaches focused on identifying the areas YOU need to work on most.

BOUS CALCULATION

The bonus is calculated using the formula: (Total Profit – Coaching Credits) × Bonus % × (Number of Entries / 100)

🔁 Flexibility
Options

Rolling Out Entries

If you’ve reached 100 entries but are not yet in profit, you can keep playing. Each new entry (e.g. your 101st) will replace the oldest one (e.g. the 1st), keeping the cycle at 100 tracked entries.

Rolling Time Period

If you haven’t completed 100 entries within the initial 18 months, your tracking period can shift to a rolling 18-month window. In this case, only entries played within the most recent 18 months are counted.

Early Exit or Incomplete Cycle

If you decide to quit or don’t finish 100 entries in time, you’ll still receive a prorated bonus based on your completed volume.

Selling Action

You can sell up to 100% of your action in any tournament.
