HI,

do someone know how do they take rake and reward online ?

example : if you are heads-up and win a 5$ do you earn reward on 2.50% of the pot and your opponent gets a % for his 2.50 even if he loses ? or do both player get reward for the full 5$ ?

Can you be a bit more specific with your example? ie. 'Heads-up'... in a HU sng? Playing in a pot vs. one other player on a cash game table? 'Win $5', is this with $0.01/0.02 blinds, or is it $0.02/$0.05 blinds? Or is it $0.50/$1.00 blinds.

Rake is different from site to site. It is generally ~5% for lowest stakes.
Rewards, varies significantly. What was typical was something around 20% rakeback (ie. partypoker 'was' 20% to upwards of 65% depending upon stake level and Leaderboards, today it is much, much less (just in the past couple years it changed; GGPoker is ~35% rakeback (if you're getting 'Platinum' level)

And as far as 'rewards' programs go these days, you really want to try to do your homework on finding the best deal (or any deal?) you can.

It is on pokerstars 5nl, 6max cash game, to be more specific, the question is does both player gets rewards points for the final pot ? is it 50-50 ? or only the winner get rakeback for the final pot ? say it goes to showdown

Only the winner of the hand receives player points.
