No purchase necessary to enter or win. A purchase will not increase your chances of winning.

Use your Clear Lake Bank & Trust Company debit card for PIN- or signature-based purchases, excluding ATM transactions, for chances to win one (1) of two (2) $250.00 cash* prizes. For each debit card PIN- or signature-based purchase, excluding ATM transactions, that hard post to your linked deposit account from March 1, 2022, through March 31, 2022, (the "Promotion Period"), an automatic entry for the drawing will be created. The drawing will take place the month following the Promotion Period. 

Clear Lake Bank & Trust Company is the sponsor of the “I Pay My Way” Sweepstakes (the “Sweepstakes”). There is no limit on entries per eligible customer during the entry period. All entries will have the same chance of winning a prize regardless how entries are received.  Entry method #1, an automatic entry received by using a Clear Lake Bank & Trust Company debit card that hard posts to your linked deposit account, has the same chance of winning a prize as does entry method #2, a manual entry received using the process described below.
