For the duration of the Contest all Qualified New Users and Referrers will be eligible to receive Gift Boxes. Each Gift Box will be redeemable for one or more tokens.

A Qualified New User receives one Gift Box once they spend $100, and receives an additional Gift Box once they spend $1000.

All Referrers receive a Gift Box for referring each Qualified New Users, up to a maximum of 10 Gift Boxes per user.

Gift Boxes contain a variety of tokens that vary in value, up to a maximum of 1 ETH.

## **How to enter**

**For new users:**

* New users must create new account, complete KYC, fund their account and get a Cash card to become a Qualified New User. They can get up to two Gift Boxes — by spending $100 for 1 Gift Box and spending $1000 to get a second Gift Box.

**All users, including new and existing users:**

* Refer Qualified New Users who spend over $100 to earn a Gift Box.&#x20;
* Maximum of 10 gift boxes per user.

When revealing the contents of the Gift Box, users will choose from boxes with a corresponding code.&#x20;

Each 500 Gift Boxes awarded will follow a predetermined order of the rewards above assigned. The order in which the 500 rewards are claimed by users will be based on the order in which they are claimed and a selected number upon opening a Gift Box.
