Promotional period

Each Promotion commences at 5pm and closes at 7pm (based on local time) on a Friday (each a “Happy Hour Period”). The Promotions will commence from 5pm (local time) on 17 November 2023 and will continue on each subsequent Friday, until otherwise specified by the Promoter. All advertising for the Promotions will be removed as soon as the Promotions cease. Exception on time zones applicable: AWST will apply in ACWST areas.

Eligible entrants

Entry is only open to Australian residents who are 16 years and over, have an Up Everyday Debit Card Account and have registered access to the ‘Up’ banking app on their compatible device.

Entrants under the age of 18 must have parent or legal guardian approval to enter.

How to enter

Prizes will be awarded during Happy Hour Periods as they are shown on https://up.com.au/happy-hour. Exact value of prize Credit available to be won in total during each Happy Hour Period will be listed on the aforementioned website.

To enter the Promotion, the entrant must complete an Eligible Transaction using their Up Everyday Card/Digital Wallet during a Happy Hour Period.

The following conditions must be met in order for a purchase to be a qualifying transaction for this Promotion (“Eligible Transaction”):

  1. The purchase must be made at an identified merchant that has been previously categorised as "Restaurants & Cafes", or “Pubs & Bars” within the larger “Good Life” parent category inside the Up app;
  2. The purchase must be made while a Happy Hour Period is active in the merchants’ timezone (active periods will be updated from time to time and listed at https://up.com.au/happyhour).
  3. The purchase must be made at point of sale using a valid Up Mastercard debit card (physical or digital) — 2Up debit cards are not currently eligible; and
  4. Purchase must be a minimum of $10 in one transaction.

The following are not Eligible Transactions:

  1. Cash out
  2. Any transaction which have been reversed or cancelled
  3. Cash advances
  4. ATM withdrawal
  5. BPay payments
  6. Pay Anyone payments
  7. Any purchase made from a merchant that has not been categorised as a "Restaurants & Cafes", or “Pubs & Bars”; note that purchases from the category “Booze” or “Takeaway” will not be eligible.

Once an Eligible Transaction has been made by the customer they’ll be alerted via a notification in the Up app that they can now ‘play’ the Happy Hour game of chance wheel. This involves tapping through on screen and spinning the digital wheel to potentially win a cash prize ranging between $1-$50.

The specific amount that the customer can potentially win is dependent on the size of their Eligible Transaction. It is calculated as a percentage of this Eligible Transaction (with a possible range overall from 5-50%). Eligible Transactions are grouped in different dollar amount bands and rounded.

To increase the maximum prize potential (i.e. get it closer to 50%) the customer can get other people they’re physically with at the time to use their own devices to scan the Happy Hour ‘boost’ QR code (present on the Up customer’s device, as part of the Happy Hour in-app screen flow). Any mates not on Up get a bonus $10 when they sign up to Up after boosting you (using the campaign invite code shown on screen within their mobile browser).

Note, there is no guarantee of winning a cash prize (regardless of mode played).

The entrant must complete the spin by 7:15pm (local time) on the same day of notification in the Up app. After 7:15pm (local time), this will no longer be possible in-app, and the chance to complete their entry will have expired.

Entries permitted

Limit one (1) entry permitted per week, based on the first Eligible Transaction within the Promotional Period. Maximum of one (1) prize per person each week. Non-winning spins count as an entry.

All valid Happy Hour entries have a chance of winning provided there is still available prize money (this can be viewed during competition hours at https://up.com.au/happyhour). The probability of an entry winning is determined by a number of factors including the time and money remaining for that day as well as the number and recency of any past wins the entrant may have had.

Instant Win Winning Method:

Entrants will be notified immediately upon completing an eligible purchase and playing the Happy Hour game of chance wheel in-app, if they are a winner.

Each winner will see the amount they’ve won appear on the wheel on their app screen once it stops spinning, and will receive an in-app notification that a rounded amount between $1-$50 has been credited to them, and added back to their Up account in the form of ‘cashback’. If they do not win, they will see a “Sorry” message in-app.

The prize is delivered immediately following an Eligible Transaction, notification is provided through the App at the time of prize delivery and will be visible in the customer’s Up app activity feed.

Total Prize Pool:

The total amount of Credit awarded for any individual Promotion (i.e. each Friday) will be determined by the Promoter, but the minimum and maximum amounts per state/territory per Promotion will be as follows:

  1. Victoria: $1 AUD to $10,000 AUD
  2. New South Wales: $1 AUD to $10,000 AUD
  3. ACT: $1 AUD to $3000 AUD
  4. Queensland: $1 AUD to $10,000 AUD
