“Have a coffee on us" Terms and Conditions

These “Terms” set forth the terms and conditions for participation in the Uphold “Have a coffee on us!” giveaway program (the “Program”) administered by Uphold HQ Inc., Uphold Europe Ltd.  (and together with its affiliates, “Uphold”), where a Reward (defined below) is given to Uphold account holders for conducting a transaction using an Uphold debit card account (the “Debit Card”). Employees of Uphold, its subsidiaries and affiliated companies and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, representatives, advertising or promotional agencies, members of their immediate families and persons with whom any of the foregoing are domiciled are not eligible to participate in the Program.

Who can enter

New verified members of Uphold.com who are over the age of 18 at the time of participation and are legal residents of the United Kingdom are eligible to participate in the Program. 

Reward

Each Participant will receive a maximum reward amount of £5 GBP (the “Reward”) for completing all of the steps listed under “Requirements.” Participation in the Program and receipt of the Reward is subject to the terms, conditions and limitations outlined herein. Payment of the Reward will be made within 24 hours from the date all of the listed requirements were completed and shall be paid to each participant’s Debit Card account. 

Any reward payments will be made in British Pounds (GBP), at Uphold’s sole discretion, and shall be deposited to the participant’s Uphold Debit Card account upon completion of the Requirements (outlined below). 

How to enter; Requirements

Participants will be eligible for the Reward upon meeting the following requirements within 7 days of successful Uphold account creation: 

• complete any and all identification verification and standard Know-Your-Customer (“KYC”) processes and background checks (including the Finproms evaluation questionnaire); 
• activate a Debit Card; 
• add the Debit Card to Apple or Google wallet; 
• add funds to the Debit Card account; and
• conduct a qualifying transaction.

Upon completion of all of the aforementioned requirements, participants will be eligible to receive the Reward. For purposes of clarity, participants will need to fund their Debit Card accounts and then also conduct a qualifying transaction to receive the full Reward. See Uphold Debit Card Terms and Conditions for more details on qualifying transactions. Further, the Reward is only granted for the first transaction made by the participant. Any initial transaction made under £5 GBP will result in a lesser reward equal to such amount (i.e., if participant conducts an initial transaction of £2 GBP, such participant will receive a reward of only £2 GBP instead of £5 GBP). Multiple transactions cannot be combined to earn the full £5 Reward amount.    

Qualifying transactions made pursuant to this Program shall also be subject to Uphold’s cardholder agreement. Participants must complete all of the requirements outlined above within the Term (defined below) to be eligible to receive the Reward.

Program Term

Participant becomes eligible to participate in the Program immediately upon creating an Uphold account. Once the account is created, the participant has a period of seven (7) days (the “Term”) to complete all of the Requirements and claim the Reward. An initial transaction made after the Term shall not be eligible for the Reward.
