INCENTIVE DESCRIPTION: From September 1, 2023 until October 31, 2023 at 11:59 pm CT (the “Incentive Period”), Tennessee residents may receive a one-time contribution totaling $25.00 deposited into an eligible TNStars account in exchange for 1) establishing a new monthly recurring contribution of $25.00 or 2) increasing an existing monthly recurring contribution by $25.00.

INCENTIVE ELIGIBILITY: This incentive is for Tennessee residents only.* New TNStars and existing TNStars account owners are eligible for this incentive.

NEW TNSTARS ACCOUNT OWNERS: New TNStars account owners** may qualify for only one $25.00 incentive for each new monthly recurring contribution of at least $25.00 established during the Incentive Period for a qualifying TNStars Account. The start date for the new recurring contribution must occur on or before December 6, 2023 in order to receive the $25.00 incentive. The incentive will be applied as a contribution to the qualifying TNStars account after December 15, 2023.

EXISTING TNSTARS ACCOUNT OWNERS: Existing TNStars account owners may qualify for only one $25 incentive amount for each qualifying TNStars Account if an existing monthly recurring contribution is increased by at least $25.00 during the Incentive Period. A qualifying TNStars account is any TNStars account that is open and active as of September 1, 2023. The TNStars account owners must execute the new recurring contribution instruction form either online or via form within the Incentive Period. The start date for the new or updated monthly recurring contribution must occur on or before December 6, 2023 in order to receive the $25.00 incentive.
