By sponsoring a prize, your business will not only be helping us reward 10 lucky early ratepayers with exciting prize packages (made up of cash, vouchers and/or services), but you’ll also receive valuable promotion across our platforms and networks.

Last year, feedback from our community highlighted that rising cost-of-living pressures has made it challenging to pay rates in full upfront. That's why we've introduced one new prize category this year, giving more ratepayers the opportunity to participate. Ratepayers that have opted to pay their rates via two or four instalments simply need to pay their first rates instalment by the due date to go into the draw to win.

Remember the cutoff date to be recognised in the Budget Bulletin (which is mailed to every rateable property in early September) is 𝟭𝟴 𝗝𝘂𝗹𝘆.
