At 5APoker the $0 + $0 free roll tournaments are available anytime! 
(1) There are single table $0 + $0 tournaments. These tournaments are      much easier for beginners to handle.
(2) There are also scheduled $0 + $0 tournaments every hour. This kind      of tournaments is designed for beginners to take a shot at multi-table      tournaments with no risk.

Please be advised that these free tournamets are designed for new registers within 1 month. A player who is past 1 month has to play cash games or buyin tournamets to get 3 times FPP for his/her free tournament prizes before being able to request a cashout.

Hi Andy and thanks for your feeback about 5APoker. (it's really important for us: our priority is to promove only sure and serious rooms)

if there are others members who have played on 5Apoker; PLEASE DON'T hesitate to give your opinion

To my part, i play at 5Apoker since 3 months only at 2$+ 0.20 $ heads up tables (never freerolls). At this moment,  i have raised my bankroll to the initial 5 $ free from 35 $ and have obtained 55 frequent players points (55 FPP= 55 heads up). So i have met the requirement about the FFP ( 8 FFP/ 1$ that's means 40 FPP/5 $  it's really easy). 

I'll test the cashier as soon as i reach 50$ (the minimum cash out) and let you inform.

Well it's kind of normal, that u need to spend some money on the website to cash-out the money that been given to you ! It's usual deal for poker-rooms. I've never played there because i use to have a quiet big bankroll on website, and like to play only on big names to be more sure about security.

To be completed, i want add the response of the 5Apoker support:

" Dear, 

•      The minimum cash out is $50.
•      A cash out can only be requested 48 hours after your last deposit.
•      For security reasons, withdrawals will not be approved to new payment processor accounts until at least one deposit has been made to 5APoker using that account. 

In a previous email, they have indicated me that:

 

"We are licensed and regulated by the government of Costa Rica."

 

That is said

Lou, to be honest, I am still concerned, as 5A Poker has never returned any of my several emails.

FUN
