How to enter

As a new customer

To automatically enter the Promotion, an Eligible Entrant who is a new customer must, during the Promotion Period:

  • Open a new Newcastle Permanent Everyday Account or Greater Bank Access Account (‘Eligible Account’); and
  • Make at least ten (10) Eligible Transactions in a calendar month using their Visa Debit card issued on the Eligible Account.

An Eligible Entrant is a new customer if they did not hold an account with Newcastle Permanent or Greater Bank during the six (6) months immediately preceding the opening of the Eligible Account.

As an existing customer

To enter the Promotion, an Eligible Entrant who is an existing customer must, during the Promotion Period:

  • Fully complete the online entry form accessed via the email invitation received from Newcastle Permanent or Greater Bank; and
  • Make at least ten (10) Eligible Transactions (defined below) in a calendar month using their Visa Debit card issued on their Newcastle Permanent Everyday Account or Greater Bank Access Account (Eligible Account).

Eligible Transactions

An Eligible Transaction is a Visa Debit card purchase of $5 or more (‘Eligible Transaction’). For clarity, this includes:

  • Purchases using a merchant terminal where credit is selected or using tap and go/contactless, where the transaction is processed on the Visa network;
  • Online purchases via a merchant’s website/app, where the transaction is processed through the Visa network; or
  • Scheduled payments using the Visa Debit card details.

Exclusions: The following transactions are not considered an Eligible Transaction:

  • Excluded goods, services and transactions, based on the merchant’s Visa Merchant Category, as listed in clause 2 of these Terms and Conditions.
  • Incomplete or reversed transactions, as outlined in clause 3 of these Terms and Conditions.
  • Any transactions not processed through the Visa network. This means that payments made via Newcastle Permanent or Greater Bank digital banking or banking app, Pay Anyone, Osko®, BPAY®, PayTo®, cash withdrawals, eftpos and direct debit using account details (i.e. BSB and account number), and transactions that are routed by a merchant through a payment network other than the Visa network are all excluded.

Entry allocation

Each Eligible Entrant who satisfies the applicable entry requirements will receive one (1) entry for every ten (10) Eligible Transactions completed during a calendar month using a Visa Debit card issued in their name on an Eligible Account.

Only whole entries will be awarded. Eligible Transactions that do not make up a complete group of ten (10) Eligible Transactions will not be carried forward to another calendar month.

Where an Eligible Account is jointly held, each Eligible Entrant may qualify separately for entries based on Eligible Transactions completed using their own Visa Debit card issued in their name on that Eligible Account.

An Eligible Entrant may receive multiple entries during the Promotion Period, including in respect of multiple Eligible Accounts held with both Newcastle Permanent and Greater Bank. 

Eligible Entrants

Entry is open to individuals who meet all of the following criteria at the time of the Prize draw:

  • Are aged 14 years or over;
  • Are residents of NSW or QLD;
  • Are an account holder of an Eligible Account; and
  • Hold a Visa Debit card issued in their name on that Eligible Account.

Business or non-individual entity customers and employees or Officers of the Promoter or any organisation associated with the Promotion are ineligible to enter.

Ongoing eligibility

To remain eligible to win the Prize, an Eligible Entrant must continue to hold at least one Eligible Account at the time of the Prize draw.

Maximum number of entries permitted

There is no overall limit on the number of entries an Eligible Entrant may receive during the Promotion Period. An Eligible Entrant will receive one (1) entry for every ten (10) Eligible Transactions completed during a calendar month using a Visa Debit card issued in their name on an Eligible Account. Eligible Transactions are assessed separately for each calendar month and will not be carried forward to another calendar month for the purpose of calculating entries.

For example:

  • If an Eligible Entrant completes ten (10) Eligible Transactions during a calendar month on an Eligible Account, they will receive one (1) entry;
  • If an Eligible Entrant completes fifty (50) Eligible Transactions during a calendar month on an Eligible Account, they will receive five (5) entries;
  • If an Eligible Entrant completes ten (10) Eligible Transactions in three (3) separate calendar months on the same Eligible Account, they will receive three (3) entries; and
  • If an Eligible Entrant completes twenty (20) Eligible Transactions during a calendar month on an Eligible Account held with Newcastle Permanent and thirty (30) Eligible Transactions during the same calendar month on an Eligible Account held with Greater Bank, they will receive five (5) entries in total.

Prizes

There is one (1) prize to be awarded, consisting of a $50,000 cash payment.

The payment will be paid by electronic transfer by the Promoter to the winner’s nominated Eligible Account in the winner’s name.

An Eligible Entrant can win a maximum of one (1) Prize. No bonus prizes will be awarded.

Prize value

The Prize is valued at $50,000. The total prize pool value is $50,000 (AUD).

The winner will be chosen through a fair and random electronic draw. The first valid entry drawn will win the Prize. Each entry has an equal random chance of winning, with multiple entries providing additional chances. The Promoter will keep records of the draw and share information with regulators if required. The Promoter may draw additional reserve entries and record them in order in case an invalid entry or ineligible entrant is drawn.

If the draw is scheduled on a non-business day, the draw will be conducted on the following business day.

The winner’s information will only be published with their separate agreement or where required by law or a regulatory authority.

Prize claim period

The prize winner must claim their prize before the re-draw date, by confirming receipt of the notification and providing the Promoter with their nominated bank account details.

The prize will be paid into the winner’s nominated Eligible Account within 7 business days of claiming their prize.

Re-determination of winners

In the event a prize winner is not eligible to receive the prize, cannot be contacted, does not claim their prize, or returns the prize, they will be taken to have forfeited that prize and a re-draw will take place on Tuesday, 6 April 2027 at the same time and place as the original draw, subject to any directions from a regulatory authority.

If the winner selected at the redraw is ineligible, cannot be contacted after reasonable attempts, or does not claim the Prize within the applicable Prize claim period, a further redraw will be conducted on the same basis, subject to any direction from a regulatory authority.
