Questions Answered
Can we offer a prize to everyone, for charity?
07/14/2019
We have a “spin the wheel” promotion. To spin, a customer must donate $1 that the bank donates to a charity. All the prize amounts on the wheel are more than $1 therefore all customers will get more than they donate. The amount won is then sent to the customer via our e-wallet app. We set a certain number of spins and it is done on a first-come-first-served basis.
