For Tiered Rewards and the Bonus Reward, Participants must maintain their qualifying holdings until the end of the Promotion Period. Any sells, transfers, withdrawals or other actions that reduce the Participant’s qualifying bundle balance below the applicable threshold during the relevant holding period will result in disqualification from the applicable reward category.
VALR reserves the right to conduct random account balance checks at any time.
VALR may, in its sole and absolute discretion, account for normal market volatility and will not disqualify Participants due to price drops, provided the qualifying purchase was made and no sells, transfers, withdrawals or other actions reduced the Participant’s bundle quantity or qualifying balance during the applicable holding period.
