The Kindred GIC New Deposits Offer is referred to in these Terms and Conditions as the “Kindred GIC New Deposits Offer”.
The Kindred GIC New Deposits Offer is offered by Kindred Credit Union Limited (“Kindred”).
By participating in the Kindred GIC New Deposits Offer, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions.
Kindred GIC New Deposits Offer
The Kindred GIC New Deposits Offer runs from May 4, 2026 at 12:01 AM EST to July 3, 2026 at 11:59 PM EST, unless terminated at an earlier date by Kindred (the “Promotion Period”).
If, during the Promotion Period, a member invests in a new Kindred GIC of a minimum of $1,000.00, the member will be eligible to receive the Kindred GIC New Deposits Rate (the “Kindred GIC New Deposits Rate”) provided that the source of the funds has come from an external Financial Institution and must not include existing funds held with Kindred, or Aviso Wealth Inc. or any of their respective affiliates.
Eligibility Requirements
To be eligible for the Kindred GIC New Deposits Offer, you must satisfy the following criteria (the “Eligibility Requirements”):
1. If you are an individual, you must be of the age of majority in Ontario, and you must be a resident of Ontario.
2. If you are a corporation, partnership, limited partnership, or limited liability partnership, you must be carrying on business in Ontario and all individuals who are partners or shareholders must be of the age of majority in Ontario.
Qualifying Criteria
To earn the Kindred GIC New Deposits Rate, you must complete all of the following steps (the “Qualifying Criteria”):
Step 1: If you are not already a Kindred member, then you must become a new member during the Promotion Period.
Step 2: If you do not already have an account with Kindred, then you must open an account with Kindred through a Kindred representative during the Promotion Period. Account opening must be completed in person at a Kindred branch.
Step 3: During the Promotion Period, you must make one or more new investments (each, a “New Investment”). New Investments must be made with funds transferred from an external Financial Institution and must not include existing funds held with Kindred, or Aviso Wealth Inc. or any of their respective affiliates or (b) funds first deposited with Kindred during the Promotion Period. Funds deposited with Kindred outside the Promotion Period do not qualify for the Kindred GIC New Deposits Rate, except where such funds result from a transfer from another financial institution that was initiated during the Promotion Period. Investments made before or after the Promotion Period do not qualify for the Kindred GIC New Deposits Rate.
Kindred is not obligated to open a membership for you. If Kindred, in its sole discretion, does not open a membership for you, then you will not be eligible for the Kindred GIC New Deposits Rate.
Kindred GIC New Deposits Offer Fulfillment
The Kindred GIC New Deposits Rate will apply to an investment in an eligible Kindred GIC during the Promotional Period provided that the source of the funds has come from an external Financial Institution and must not include existing funds held with Kindred, or Aviso Wealth Inc. or any of their respective affiliates.
