How do I earn Save to Win raffle entries?

An account holder earns one entry into the monthly, quarterly and/or annual prize drawings (where applicable), for every $25 increase in the monthly balance of the Qualifying Save To Win Account at month’s end. Entries are calculated based on a month-over-month balance increase, as reported by the credit union in the monthly data file each month. This means there must be an increase of at least $25 in the reported ending balance of the current month when compared to the reported ending balance of the previous month. This month-over-month balance increase is calculated based on the Save to Win member record reported by the credit union each month. If a Qualifying Account is closed and a new Qualifying Account is opened for any reason during the month, the month-end balance reported by the credit union in the previous month’s data file will be used as the starting balance for the current month to calculate the month-over-month balance increase, which constitutes entries for the current month. The more you save, the more chances you receive to win! Max 100 entries per month. Max 300 per quarter. Max 1200 annual (where applicable).

Is there an Example of how entries are calculated?

An account holder earns One (1) entry for every $25 increase in the monthly balance of the Qualifying Save To Win account at month’s end (month over month balance increase). Max of 100 entries per month. Max 300 per quarter. Max 1200 per year (where applicable). Example = Starting Balance of $0, +$200 in Savings = $200 Month 1 Ending Balance that equals 8 Entries. Then, the next month, if you add +$1,500 in Savings = $1,700 Month 2 Ending Balance that equals 60 Entries. Then, the next month, if you add +$3,000 in Savings = $4,700 Month 3 Ending Balance that equals 100 Entries; which equals 168 Entries in the Quarterly Drawing.

If I withdraw funds from my account, will I lose entries?

Save to Win entries are calculated based on month-over-month balance increases. A withdrawal from your account could affect whether you had a balance increase for a particular month. If due to your withdrawal you do not have a balance increase compared to the prior month, you will not get entries for that particular Drawing Period.

When are the drawings held?

National and state-wide drawings are held around the 14th of each month and quarterly drawings in January, April, July and October. Some credit unions and states offer annual or monthly prize drawings (refer to your credit union’s Official Rules for details). FRFCU is offering monthly prize drawings with 3 winners total per month; one $25 winner, one $75 winner, and one $100 winner per month.

How will winners be notified?

Winners will be notified by their credit unions via telephone, email or standard U.S.P.S. mail. Prizes are nontransferrable. Winners need not be present at the drawing to win.

What are the withdrawal limits, fees, or minimum balance requirements on this account?
