5.2.2.1    Level one gives you one entry, with a maximum of three entries (i.e. you must have three different types of loans).

5.2.2.2    Level two gives you two entries, with a maximum of six entries (i.e. you must have three different types of loans and we will double your entries).

5.2.2.3    Level three gives you three entries, with a maximum of nine entries (i.e. you must have three different types of loans and we will triple your entries).

5.2.2.4    Level four gives you four entries, with a maximum of 12 entries (i.e. you must have three different types of loans and we will quadruple your entries).

5.3    To increase your Greenbacks level, you can opt into any of the following packages if you meet the criteria for it: Card Swiper; Structured Saver; Money Manager; and Responsible Borrower. Opting in to:

5.3.1.1     one package increases your level to one;

5.3.1.2     two packages increase your level to two;

5.3.1.3      three packages increase your level to three; and

5.3.1.4      four packages increase your level to four.
