Win a Clutch Certified
2025 Audi Q7.

This Contest is sponsored by Clutch Technologies Inc. ("Clutch"), 3350 Wolfedale Rd., Mississauga, ON, L5C 1W4.

Open to legal residents of the Province of Ontario, Canada who are 18 years or older at the time of entry.

No purchase is necessary to enter or win. Completion of Step 1 alone is sufficient to enter the Contest. Optional activities described in Steps 2 and 3 provide opportunities to earn bonus points that may improve an entrant's odds of winning but are not required to participate. A selected entrant must also correctly answer a skill-testing question before being confirmed as the winner (see Section 5).

Employees, officers, directors, representatives, and agents of Clutch, its affiliates, advertising and promotional agencies, prize suppliers, and any other party involved in the development, production, administration, or fulfillment of the Contest, and the immediate family members (parent, spouse, sibling, child) and household members of any of the foregoing, whether or not related, are not eligible to enter.

Multiple individuals within the same household may each enter independently, provided each person is a separate eligible individual using their own email address and, if applicable, their own social media handle. Each vehicle identified by a unique VIN may only be submitted once under Step 2 across all entrants, including members of the same household. Points will not be awarded for duplicate VIN submissions.

Entrants are not required to have a social media account to enter through Step 1. However, a valid, active Instagram account is required to earn points through Step 3, unless the entrant uses an alternate method described in Section 4A.

Clutch reserves the right to require any entrant to provide proof of age as a condition of prize award. Any entrant who cannot provide such proof within seven (7) calendar days of request may be disqualified and an alternate winner selected.

The Contest begins on August 5, 2026 at 12:01 AM Eastern Time and ends on September 5, 2026 at 12:00 AM Eastern Time (the "Contest Period"). Any "days remaining" or similar countdown displayed on a Contest page is for convenience only. In the event of any inconsistency, the official start and end date and time stated in these terms govern.

Step 1 — Required Entry Step (5 points): Complete the official online entry form during the Contest Period with your first name and a valid email address. Completion of Step 1 alone constitutes your official entry and creates your official contest profile. Limit of one (1) Step 1 entry per person.

Step 2 — Optional Bonus-Point Vehicle Submission (100 points per unique vehicle): Submit a vehicle you own or are legally authorized to submit for a Clutch Sell-to-Clutch ("STC") instant cash offer using the requested vehicle-identifying information, which may include licence plate number, postal code, and VIN. Earn 100 points for each eligible vehicle submitted during the Contest Period. Each vehicle may only be submitted once across all entrants; duplicate VIN submissions will not earn additional points. See Section 7 for vehicle ownership verification requirements.

Step 3 — Optional Bonus-Point Social Post Activity (10 points per designated post, maximum 30 points): During the Contest Period, provide your Instagram handle when prompted in Step 3 and post one (1) comment on each designated Clutch advertising post on Instagram identified by Clutch for this Contest, using that same Instagram handle. Entrants may earn 10 points for each designated post, up to a maximum of three (3) designated posts and 30 total points. Comments must be original, authentic, and comply with applicable platform rules and these terms.

Clutch may reject, withhold, or remove Step 2 or Step 3 points if Clutch cannot reasonably match the activity to the entrant's contest profile, if the activity appears to have been generated by automated means, or if the activity does not comply with these terms.

All points are linked to the entrant's confirmed contest profile. Points are non-transferable, cannot be combined between entrants, and have no monetary value.

Clutch reserves the right to disqualify any entrant, entry, or points obtained through fraud, deception, automated means, tampering, or any other violation of these terms.

Alternate Method for Step 2 Equivalent Points (100 points): Instead of completing a vehicle submission under Step 2, an eligible entrant may earn 100 bonus points by mailing to Clutch at 3350 Wolfedale Rd., Mississauga, Ontario L5C 1W4, Attention: CLUTCH CERTIFIED AUDI Q7 CONTEST Administrator, an original written piece including: (a) the entrant's full name, email address, mailing address, telephone number, and Instagram handle if applicable; and (b) an original response of at least 100 words to the prompt: "In 100 words or more, describe what having a reliable vehicle means to you and your family." Requests must be postmarked no later than September 5, 2026 and received by Clutch no later than September 12, 2026 at 11:59 PM Eastern Time.

Alternate Method for Step 3 Equivalent Points (10 points per designated post equivalent, maximum 30 points): Instead of posting a comment under Step 3, an eligible entrant may earn 10 bonus points for each designated post equivalent (maximum 30 total points) by mailing to Clutch at the same address above, an original written piece including: (a) the entrant's full name, email address, mailing address, telephone number, and Instagram handle if applicable; and (b) an original response to the corresponding prompt: "Post 1: Tell us something funny about your car. Post 2: Tell us something unique about your car. Post 3: Tell us a unique place you travelled in your car." Limit of one (1) response per designated post equivalent. Requests must be postmarked no later than September 5, 2026 and received by Clutch no later than September 12, 2026 at 11:59 PM Eastern Time.

An entrant may not receive duplicate points for both the primary method and the alternate method for the same opportunity. Clutch may reject any alternate method submission that is incomplete, illegible, late, duplicated, generated by automated means, or otherwise not in accordance with these terms.

One (1) potential winner will be selected by random draw from among all eligible entrants, with the chance of selection weighted in proportion to the total number of eligible points attributed to each entrant during the Contest Period. Actual odds of winning depend on the number of eligible entrants and the total points attributed to all eligible entrants.

The draw will take place at Clutch's offices in Ontario within ten (10) business days after the end of the Contest Period.

The potential winner will be notified via the email address provided at entry within five (5) business days after the draw.

Before being confirmed as the winner, the potential winner must correctly answer, without assistance, a time-limited mathematical skill-testing question administered by phone, email, or another method determined by Clutch.

Before being confirmed as the winner, the potential winner may be required to complete and return, within the time specified by Clutch, a declaration of eligibility, liability/publicity release, tax forms, and any other documents reasonably required for Contest administration and prize fulfillment.

If a potential winner cannot be contacted, does not respond within seven (7) calendar days after the first attempted notification, fails the skill-testing question, fails to satisfy any eligibility or verification requirement, or otherwise does not comply with these terms, that entrant may be disqualified and an alternate potential winner selected by the same method.

The name of the confirmed winner will be made available to any person who submits a written request to contest@clutch.ca within sixty (60) days following the conclusion of the Contest Period, subject to applicable privacy legislation.

One (1) grand prize: a Clutch Certified 2025 Audi Q7 or, if that vehicle becomes unavailable before prize award for any reason, another vehicle selected by Clutch with an equivalent or greater approximate retail value. Approximate retail value: C$80,000.

The prize is non-transferable, non-exchangeable, and cannot be redeemed for cash or credit.

The prize vehicle has passed Clutch's rigorous 210-point inspection and reconditioning process.

The winner is solely responsible for insurance, registration, licensing, fuel, taxes, and all other costs and expenses associated with accepting, taking possession of, and using the prize vehicle that are not expressly included in the prize description.

The prize vehicle will be made available to the confirmed winner in Ontario, Canada. Delivery or pickup will be arranged by Clutch in its discretion. Any costs or arrangements not expressly included by Clutch are the responsibility of the winner.

Any entrant who earns points through Step 2 (vehicle offer submissions) must, if selected as the potential winner, provide valid proof of ownership or authority to submit for each vehicle submitted — including the Ontario vehicle permit (ownership documents) and a valid driver's licence, if requested by Clutch. Points attributed to vehicles for which ownership or authority cannot be verified within seven (7) days of request will be removed from the entrant's eligible total before the winner is confirmed. If, following that adjustment, the entrant is no longer eligible to be confirmed as winner, Clutch may disqualify that entrant and select an alternate potential winner.

By entering, each participant agrees that if selected as the winner, they grant Clutch a royalty-free licence, limited to Canada and for a period of three (3) years from the date of prize award, to use their name, likeness, photograph, video recording, voice, and social media handle for promotional, advertising, and marketing purposes in connection with this Contest and the Clutch Certified™ campaign, across all media including digital and social platforms, without further compensation. The winner agrees to use reasonable efforts to participate in a vehicle delivery experience and related content creation — including photography, video production, and social media content — for Clutch's marketing and promotional use, subject to reasonable scheduling and logistical arrangements agreed upon between Clutch and the winner.

Clutch may, in its sole discretion, offer a separate promotional incentive to some non-winning eligible entrants in connection with the Contest. Any such promotional incentive is not part of the prize, is not guaranteed, and may be modified, withdrawn, or discontinued by Clutch at any time, subject to applicable law. Any such promotional incentive will be subject to separate terms and conditions communicated by Clutch at the time it is offered.

No purchase is necessary to enter or win this Contest.

Clutch reserves the right to cancel, modify, or suspend this Contest at any time if, in its sole discretion, fraud, technical failures, or other factors beyond Clutch's reasonable control impair the integrity or proper functioning of the Contest, subject to applicable law. Clutch shall not be liable for any failure or delay arising from any event beyond Clutch's reasonable control including without limitation acts of God, natural disaster, pandemic or epidemic, governmental action or restriction, war, terrorism, civil unrest, or labour disruption.
