McCafé Loyalty Migration FAQs

What is the McCafé Loyalty scheme?

The McCafe Loyalty scheme is a reward programme for our loyal customers who love the great taste of McDonald’s coffee. Customers who purchase McCafé hot drinks can collect stamps on the McDonald’s App, in return for a free drink.

 

When did McCafé Loyalty end on the cups?

  • McCafé Loyalty became fully digital from the 1st of July, existing cup stickers are no longer valid from this date. 
  • We gave customers three months’ notice to help mitigate any disappointment. 

 

Why has the scheme changed?

  • Our digital scheme is more generous for our customers.

 

  • It allows customers to earn and redeem their free coffee by ordering ‘contact free.’
  • Customers can order ahead on the App and still get their loyalty stamps.
  • Customers can keep their stamps together in one place on the App, rather than risk losing their physical stickers. 

 

  • The digital scheme allows customers to redeem their free coffee at more order channels, so they can now order via the McDonald’s App or at the kiosk, as well as at the Front Counter and Drive-thru.

 

 

 

 

If a customer has less than six stamps at the end of the scheme, does he/she lose them? Is there anything they can do with them?

  • Unfortunately those stamps will not be able to be used once the end date has passed however we gave customers three months’ notice that the scheme was ending to help them to collect and use the stickers by the end date.

What happens for customers who don’t have a smartphone?

  • We understand that some customers may be disappointed that they cannot download the App. However, they can still get great tasting coffee made with 100% Arabica beans, with a Black Coffee or White Coffee for just 99p.

Can you earn McCafé Loyalty stamps without ordering ahead on the App?

• You have options on how you collect and redeem. If you want to order and pay contact free using the app you can do so. Your stamps will be applied automatically and reward drinks will show in the “Deals” section.

•If you don’t want to order ahead on the McDonald’s App, there are three other ways to collect and redeem.

  • Show your QR code at Front Counter – before paying
  • Scan the QR code at the Self Order Kiosk – before paying
