Velocity token to populate link based on lead record value

Question

I'm hoping I can use velocity to populate a link instead of using traditional segmentation or creating multiple versions of emails.
 
I have a link that I need to show, but the link is going to be reliant on the value in a certain field in the lead record.
 
The value I am using to populate the field is ${lead.creditCardPromoAmount}
 
What I need it to do is

If $lead.creditCardPromoAmount = 15,000 then display this unique url
elseIf $lead.creditCardPromoAmount = 7,500 then display this unique url
elseIf $lead.creditCardPromoAmount = 5,000 then display this unique url
elseIf $lead.creditCardPromoAmount = 2,500 then display this unique url

Those are the only possible values that members of this program will have.

In general and per my understanding, equals() is more robust than the == operator for comparing data.

#if ($lead.creditCardPromoAmount.equals("15000"))
<a href="https://www.example.com/link1">Account Opening Disclosure</a>
#elseif ($lead.creditCardPromoAmount.equals("7500"))
<a href="https://www.example.com/link2">Account Opening Disclosure</a>
#elseif ($lead.creditCardPromoAmount.equals("5000"))
<a href="https://www.example.com/link3">Account Opening Disclosure</a>
#elseif ($lead.creditCardPromoAmount.equals("2500"))
<a href="https://www.example.com/link4">Account Opening Disclosure</a>
#end

It is recommended to not use the == operator to compare two values because it checks the equality of the reference whereas, the equals function checks the values.

Would something like this work? #if ( $lead.creditCardPromoAmount == 15000 )Account Opening Disclosure#elseif ( $lead.creditCardPromoAmount == 7500 )Account Opening Disclosure#elseif ( $lead.creditCardPromoAmount == 5000 )Account Opening Disclosure#elseif ( $lead.creditCardPromoAmount == 2500 )Account Opening Disclosure#end
