Players can qualify for a $12,400 WPT World Championship package at Wynn Las Vegas, starting from as little as $1.10.
The first 30 qualifiers are eligible for an extra $100,000 bonus if they win the Main Event.
Weekly qualifiers run through November 29, with the Main Event held from December 13-20, 2024.

WPT Global Qualifiers for the 2026 WPT World Championship

The $10,400 Main Event seat is the obvious prize of the latest satellite promotion running at WPT Global, but there is a bit more wrapped around it than just tournament entry.

Players can start from $1.10, work through one of three feeder routes and eventually reach a weekly $1,060 qualifying final. Get through that stage and the reward is a $12,400 WPT World Championship package for Wynn Las Vegas, with the first 30 qualifiers also getting another potential six-figure bonus attached.

Three Routes Lead to the $1,060 Final

WPT Global has split qualification into three separate ladders, giving players a choice of how low they want to go.

Starting Point	Qualification Route
$1.10	$1.10 → $11 → $110 → $1,060
$5	$5 → $55 → $1,060
$22	$22 → $220 → $1,060

All three routes finish in the same $1,060 Sunday satellite, which runs every week through November 29. Feeder satellites began on September 15, with the Sunday qualifiers starting September 20.

What the $12,400 Package Includes

Winning the Sunday qualifier secures more than the Main Event seat itself. The package is valued at $12,400, with most of that tied directly to the World Championship buy-in.

Package Item	Value
WPT World Championship Main Event Entry	$10,400
Travel	$2,000
WPT Global Merchandise	Included
Wynn Player Rate	Included
Player Lounge Access	Included
Express Registration	Included

The $2,000 travel allowance is credited to the qualifier’s WPT Global account. Flights and accommodation are not booked as part of the package, although winners receive access to the preferential Wynn rate.

First 30 Qualifiers Get the Golden Ticket

WPT Global has also added its $100,000 Golden Ticket to the first 30 packages won through the promotion.

Istead of getting the $100,000 immediately after qualification, one of those first 30 qualifiers would receive an extra $100,000 from WPT Global if they go on to win the World Championship Main Event.

Qualifiers Head to Day 1A at Wynn

The WPT World Championship Main Event runs December 13-20 at Wynn Las Vegas, inside the wider World Championship festival.

PT Global package winners use their first package for Day 1A on December 13. Players who manage to qualify more than once can use additional packages for later starting flights under the promotion rules.

That leaves just over a month of Sunday finals from the current point in October.
