The International Federation of Match Poker (IFMP) is a non-profit organization whose stated purpose is to "serve as the global governing body for Match Poker". IFMP is incorporated as a legal entity pursuant to articles 60 to 79 of the Swiss Civil Code and is headquartered in Lausanne, Switzerland.

IFMP was founded in Lausanne on April 29, 2009. IFMP is structured as an International Sports Federation and is recognized by the Court of Arbitration for Sport.

The goals of IFMP are to promote the development of Match Poker worldwide and to secure its recognition as a Mind Sport based on strategic skill, played without any discrimination of race, sex and creed. IFMP also seeks to assist its national Member Federations in securing legislation that gives players the right to play poker safely and legally, both online and in bricks & mortar establishments.

In April 2010, IFMP secured provisional membership of the International Mind Sports Association (IMSA) at IMSA's annual congress in Dubai.

As part of the first UK Mind Sports Festival, IFMP hosted its inaugural tournaments in November, 2011, in London’s County Hall: the IFP Duplicate Poker Nations Cup (now Match Poker Nations Cup), a team event contested by IFMP’s Member Federations, and the IFMP World Poker Championship, also called ‘The Table’, in which individual players compete for the title of World Champion. The only organisation to mount international tournaments using Duplicate Poker, in its own version known as Match Poker, IFMP staged the opening hands of the 2011 IFMP Nations Cup in the capsules of the London Eye.

Membership of IFMP consists of national poker associations and federations from around the world. The IFMP currently has 60 national member federations, including the original seven member nations.

The seven founding member nations of IFMP, which today form the nucleus of its executive board, are:
