  1. Entry
    Entry is open to a company representative who is 18 years or older (excluding South Australian residents) and is authorised to act on its behalf, who is a registered user of Sniip and meets the Eligibility Criteria in Clause 3. 

The entrant must pay a bill over $1,000 in the Sniip app, between 12.01am (AEST), 1 August 2024 and 11.59pm (AEST) 15 September 2024

One entry will be allocated to all Eligible Entrants who meet the Eligibility Criteria and Entry requirements set out in sections 3, 4, 5. 

  1. Example Eligible Entries 

Entries do not accumulate. For example, if a user pays 10 x $500 bills, they have not met the criteria as each bill is under $1,000. In this instance, a user would not receive 5 entries for paying $5,000 of bills during the period, as none of those bills are greater than $1,000.

Example 1:  $4,200 bill = 4 entries into the draw

Example 2: $900 bill = 0 entries into the draw

Each Eligible Entry received during the Promotion Period will automatically be placed into the Prize Draw to be held in accordance with Clause 5. An Eligible Entry that is entered into the promotion will be an “Entry”.
