Many customers stop by Starbucks every day without realizing they could be collecting free drinks and products. Starbucks Rewards is the official loyalty program that turns each purchase into Stars, which can later be redeemed for coffees, teas, snacks, and even merchandise. Below, you’ll find how to sign up, earn Stars, and make the most out of every visit.

There are several ways to collect Stars:
- 💵 1★ for every $1 → scan your account in the app and pay in-store with cash, credit, debit, or digital wallet.
- 📲 1★ for every $1 → pay directly with a credit/debit card linked in the Starbucks app.
- ☕ 2★ for every $1 → pay with Starbucks balance loaded in the app or with a registered Starbucks Card.
📌 Tip: Whenever possible, pay with your Starbucks balance in the app — it’s the fastest way to double your Stars.
