Full 2022 PokerStars EPT/FPS Paris Schedule
EPT Paris is a Cashless Stop
Those of you that are planning to buy into any of the tournaments on the 2023 PokerStars EPT Paris schedule need to be aware the stop is a cashless operation. Cash is not accepted at the tournament venue. Instead, cash must first be loaded onto a Club Barriere membership card at The Club Barriere Paris.
You can buy in at the tournament venue using debit and credit cards, a Club Barriere card, your PokerStars (com/eu/uk/fr) account, or Luxon Pay. However, you must pay the tournament's buy-in in full; it is not possible to make part payments.
The Club Barriere Paris accepts wire transfers but allow approximately one week for the casino to complete enhanced customer due diligence reports. Ping an email to [email protected] for wire transfer details.
