There is a really nice offer available for new My Starbucks Rewards members.
This is a totally free program and if you go to Starbucks at all it is something that I for sure recommend.
The catch is you will need a Starbucks gift card. You can get a gift card in any value you choose but you do need to spend money up front to get a gift card.
Once you have a Starbucks gift card, go online here and register the card for My Starbucks Rewards.
Once you do that you should see a bonus $5.00 added to your card!
The big benefit to joining my Starbucks Rewards is that you can get a free drink on your birthday- anything you want!
You will also collect stars for every purchase. You must use that registered Starbucks card to pay so that your stars can track but each time you buy a drink you get a star. Once you collect 12 stars you can get a free drink or a free food item of your choice.
If you go to Starbucks regularly you might consider downloading the free app. You can keep your gift card balance right on your phone and just scan it at the register. It takes 24 hours for your purchases to be recorded but the free rewards will be available within a day of earning them and your birthday one will just pop up.
It is really easy to use and you can download it from iTunes here.
**This offer is supposed to be available 3/14 but you never know if they will end it early.
Once you have all that sorted out, head on in to Target (where you can use the app by the way) and get your free pastry with beverage purchase!
just remember, you can use your gift card at Target locations, but you do not earn stars for those purchases.
I read if you are green you get free refills during same visit!
Really? I didn’t know that vl so thank you for pointing it out.
vI incorrect, you do earns stars at target using your card
but you cannot redeem rewards there
Any one actually get this to work? I registered my card and got a Thanks for joining email that said, “You will get an email from us within 24 hours to confirm your account details. From there, $5 will be added to your registered card” But i have yet to get this email to confirm with.
Shannon, did you check the balance on your card? Usually Starbucks customer service is excellent. Personally I would give them 48 hours and if it has been 48 hours and you checked the balance of your gift card and it hasn’t been added just email them. I am sure they can fix it right away for you.
I have checked the balance and it is the same as when I bought the card. I’ll wait another day, they might just be inundated.
