Point Allocation & Entry into Prize Drawings

A Drawing Period may contain multiple prizes, and random draws will be conducted for each prize drawing (each, a “Drawing”). To gain entry into any of the Drawings offered as part of this Program, a Member must, within the Drawing Period, use the allocation function found on the App or Website and choose the number of earned Points to be allocated to a given Drawing. A Member may elect to allocate Points to specific Drawings in accordance with their preferences. After a Point is allocated by the Member to a given Drawing, a Member will have the opportunity, within the Drawing Period, to withdraw all or some of their previously allocated Points from the relevant Drawing. Any Points withdrawn and not re-allocated within the Drawing Period will not be entered into that Drawing. Entry or participation in any Drawing shall be subject to and governed by the Drawing Parameters (“Parameters”) for the specific Drawing at issue. Allocation of Points into any Drawing constitutes the Member’s agreement to participate in the Drawing and be bound by the Parameters. Odds of winning any prize will depend on the total number of Points allocated by all participating Members during each Monthly Drawing Period for each Drawing.

A Member’s Points balance will be reduced by the number of Points required to obtain the desired Drawing allocation and entry. Unallocated Points can be applied to subsequent Drawings within the Program Period, subject to expiry and and/or earlier termination of this Program as set out herein. Once Points have been allocated at the end of a Drawing Period, they are no longer valid for any subsequent allocation in any subsequent Drawing, and they shall not be returned or reinstated to the Member’s Account for any reason. Points shall not be used for any other purpose and shall have no cash value.

Points Expiry

Upon Termination: As set out above, Points will automatically and immediately expire upon Program termination for any reason.

Inactivity: Points will also expire in the event of Account Inactivity. “Account Inactivity” occurs when all of the following conditions are satisfied at any time during an 18 consecutive month period:

When a Member has not allocated any Points for entry in any Program Drawing; and
When a Member has not earned any Points as set out herein; and
When a Member has not logged into the Powerball account (Website or App) or performed any account activities.

In the event of Account Inactivity, all Points remaining in any Account will automatically and immediately expire. When Account Inactivity occurs, it cannot be cured, and Points cannot be restored for any reason.

Members will begin receiving notifications by email of any possible Points expiration due to Member inactivity, which will begin approximately 6 months before said Points are scheduled to expire.

Drawing Parameters

Eligible Participants who have entered Eligible Tickets and earned Points in accordance with the Program Terms & Conditions can allocate those Points to enter the Drawing as follows:

1 Drawing Entry per Point allocated.

Eligible Participants will obtain 1 Drawing Entry per Point allocated. Drawing Entries will only be obtained for the Drawing for which the Points are allocated.

After a Point is allocated to a given Drawing, an Eligible Participant will have the opportunity, within the Drawing Period, to withdraw all or some of their previously allocated Points from the relevant Prize Drawing and re-allocate the Point(s) into another Drawing within the Drawing Period. Any Points withdrawn and not re-allocated within the Drawing Period will not result in any Drawing Entry or be entered into any Drawing. There is no limit on the number of Drawing Entries per Eligible Participant.
