How to Download PartyPoker

PartyPoker has been around for two decades, and its experience shows in how easy it is to download the software and start playing on the site's exciting game portfolio. Start by downloading the PartyPoker software via PokerNews. If you download PartyPoker via a Windows-powered computer, that version will download and install on your machine. Likewise, using a Mac will automatically download the correct software.

Depending on the speed of your internet connection, downloading PartyPokermay only take a few seconds, but it may take a couple of minutes if your internet is running slower than usual. Once downloaded and installed, you are now ready to create your free PartyPoker account.

How to Create Your PartyPoker Account

Once the download and installation processes have finished, click the "Create an account" link as shown in the image below.

Clicking the "Create an account" link opens a new window containing three forms that you are required to fill in. PartyPoker needs information such as your email address, the alias you want to use at PartyPoker, password, postal address, date of birth, and telephone number. Once you have filled in the trio of forms, you need to read PartyPoker's terms and conditions, and once you have agreed to them, you will become a PartyPoker player.

Do I Need to Verify My PartyPoker Account?

Like all licensed and regulated online poker sites, PartyPoker requires you to confirm your identity and verify your account details. PartyPoker will send you a text message or email requesting this information.

Alternatively, a pop-up message may greet you when you start the PartyPoker software. This simple process, which takes place on a secure PartyPoker-owned website, usually involves sending a photograph of your government-issued identification and maybe proof of address, such as a bank statement or similar document.

Some players, including those from the United Kingdom, may be asked to provide proof of income and to set deposit limits on their accounts. This is perfectly normal and due to the UK Gambling Commission (UKGC) being PartyPoker's license issuer in the UK. The UKGC is strict regarding potential problem gambling, and PartyPoker always adheres to the terms and conditions of its licences.

PartyPoker aims to verify players' accounts within 48 hours. However, additional time may be required in more complex cases.

What Are the System Requirements For PartyPoker?

Although the PartyPoker software is advanced, you do not need a top-tier gaming rig to run it. The PartyPoker basic system requirements are:

• Windows XP / Windows Vista / Windows 7 / Windows 8 / Windows 10
• Minimum of 512 MB of RAM
• Screen resolution of at least 800 x 600 pixels with at least 256 colors

What Are The Advantages of Downloading PartyPoker Compared to the Mobile App?

You may wonder why you should download PartyPoker to your computer or laptop when the PartyPoker mobile app is one of the best on the market. While the PartyPoker app is excellent for on-the-go or casual play, the downloadable client is far superior for anyone taking poker even remotely seriously.

First of all, multi-tabling is far easier on the downloadable desktop PartyPoker client than on the mobile app. Moreover, while the mobile poker app limits you to playing a maximum of four tables, you can play many more if you download PartyPoker to your computer or laptop.

Multi-tabling on the downloadable PartyPoker software is also easier, not only because your monitor or screen is far larger than that of a mobile phone, but because the download version of PartyPoker allows you to use custom hotkeys for specific actions.

The PartyPoker downloaded software has a full suite of features, including the hand replayer, note-taking, more filters, and the aforementioned hotkeys. Though the PartyPoker mobile app is feature-rich, some of the more advanced features are stripped out to keep the user interface (UI) clean.

Last, but certainly not least, having PartyPoker downloaded on your machine makes it possible to use the PokerNews Online Tournament Calendar (OTC). This free-to-use PokerNews feature allows you to find upcoming and in-play multi-table tournaments at PartyPoker and register for them with a mouse click or two. Clicking the "register" button on the OTC opens the PartyPoker client, but it cannot open your mobile app.
