2026 Win Gas for a Year Sweepstakes

Official Rules

A PURCHASE OR TRANSACTION WILL NOT INCREASE YOUR CHANCES OF WINNING. NO PURCHASE, PAYMENT, OR CREDIT UNION MEMBERSHIP IS NECESSARY TO ENTER OR WIN.

1. NO PURCHASE IS NECESSARY: A new loan, purchase transaction or credit union membership will not increase your chances of winning, and you have not yet won the Sweepstakes. This 2026 Win Gas for a Year Sweepstakes (“2026 Win Gas for a Year”) is void where prohibited and subject to eligibility and these Official Rules.

2. SWEEPSTAKES PERIOD: The 2026 Win Gas for a Year begins at 12:00 a.m. CT on Monday, June 1, 2026, and ends at 6:00 p.m. CT on Friday, July 31, 2026 (“2026 Win Gas for a Year Period”). Tinker Federal Credit Union’s (“Tinker” or “TFCU”) computer system is the official time keeping device for this 2026 Win Gas for a Year Sweepstakes.

3. ELIGIBILITY: The 2026 Win Gas for a Year Sweepstakes is open to any current and prospective member of TFCU who enter via the alternative method described below, who:

(a)  is a permanent legal resident of one of the fifty states of the United States of America or the District of Columbia or an ITIN holder;

(b) has a valid U.S. street address (no P.O. boxes); and

(c) who is at least eighteen years of age as of the end of the 2026 Win Gas for a Year Sweepstakes Period (July 31, 2026).

TFCU members must be in good standing at the time of entry and as of the last day of the Sweepstakes Period and at time of award. A TFCU member in “good standing” is determined solely by TFCU and is a member who has at least one share account with TFCU, has not defaulted on any payment obligations to TFCU, has no charge-off with TFCU, and is not determined to be in a delinquency status.

All TFCU employees, including its divisions and affiliates, and all of their directors, officers,  volunteers, contractors, subcontractors, marketing partners, including Braid Creative and Consulting, LLC, and their immediate family members or household members (including, but not limited to parents, children, spouses, in-laws, and siblings or persons living in the same household) are not eligible.
Any potential 2026 Win Gas for a Year Sweepstakes winner will be subject to verification of eligibility and be required to sign an affidavit of eligibility and compliance with these Official Rules, including an authorization for the release of his or her social security number for tax reporting purposes, complete an IRS Form W-9, and provide valid (unexpired) government-issued photo identification. The announced winner must reply to TFCU and supply the necessary information and complete forms and information within seven calendar days of the first notification from TFCU or its agent. Failure of any potential winner to reply and communicate with TFCU, and return the required affidavit, IRS form, and other verification requirements to TFCU within the seven-calendar day timeframe from the initial attempted contact by TFCU will be determined to have automatically forfeited any award. In the event of award forfeiture, when the potential winner fails to reply within the seven day time-frame, an announced winner is unreachable by phone, the award goes unrecognized, the potential winner fails to complete and provide all requirements and forms, or if an announced winner declines the award, then TFCU is authorized to randomly select an alternate potential winner to receive the award. All potential winners are subject to the requirements of these Official Rules and any failure to comply with the Official Rules shall deem any potential winners ineligible and/or considered a forfeiture of the award. In the event of any dispute as to the identity of the potential winner, the potential winner shall be required to identify their eligibility as a primary member in good standing with TFCU and further verify their identity with a valid identification as required by these Official Rules.
