Qualified accounts are BMO InvestorLine Self-Directed and adviceDirect Cash or Margin (Individual or Joint), Corporate, Sole Proprietorship, TFSA, RRSP, Spousal RRSP, RRIF or Spousal RRIF. Any net new funds you add to these accounts will count towards your cumulative total for the contest.

• Entries are cumulative: Any entries you earn across different qualifying methods (e.g., lump-sum purchases, funding, or automatic contributions) are added together at the participant level.
• BMO Mutual Funds joint accounts: each account holder is attributed their pro rata share of qualifying contributions to prevent double counting.
