a - Automatic Entry by Eligible Balance Transfer to SOCU Visa Credit Card: A SOCU Visa credit cardholder will automatically receive one (1) Sweepstakes entry for each eligible Visa credit card transfer made during the Promotion Period. An eligible balance transfer is one made with a SOCU Visa credit card that is not in default and which is processed through the Visa transaction-processing system during the Promotion Period. Purchases do not improve the chances of winning. If there is a dispute about who submitted a cardholder entry, the entry will be deemed to be submitted by the primary person to whom the card was issued. Other restrictions may apply. Visa cards or card numbers that are stolen, fraudulent, tampered with, or otherwise altered are not eligible for automatic entry. Automatic entries must be made by 11:59:59 P.M. Central Time on September 30, 2018 to be eligible.

b - Entry by U.S. Mail Without Making a Purchase: A cardholder may submit an entry by printing the cardholder’s name, address, city, state, ZIP code, daytime/evening telephone numbers (including area code), and email address, and mailing it in an envelope with postage affixed to: 2018 BALANCE TRANSFER – WIN $100 Sweepstakes, 912 N.

Enter as often as you wish; however, each mail-in entry must be mailed in a separate, postmarked and stamped envelope.
