Employees, contractors, and immediate family or household members of the Sponsor or its affiliates are not eligible. The Sweepstakes is subject to all applicable federal, state, and local laws and regulations.

Participation does not affect credit terms, eligibility or pricing. Borrowing more or repaying faster does not improve odds or prize value beyond the entry limits set herein.
