Promos @Starbucks

In my travels to other asian countries, I became familiar with different Starbucks promotions and customer freebies. And I always thought, that ain't fair. Yea, Starbucks drinks cost a bit less here in the Philippines but the only persisting promos are the Christmas journals which we have to earn through sbux coffee consumption and the 2-5pm occasional buy 1 take 1 on drinks promo. And they have a lot...

But now, I'm glad that they have added the "starbucks rewards card" to please the paying customers of the Philippines. It's finally here!:)

The card is the same size and thickness as your regular credit card in durable plastic. So it can be carried around in handy. There are two designs but are both in green. This is my personal preference.
This works like a debit card and a reward points earning card exclusively for Starbucks only. You can reload or cash in through any Starbucks outlet and consume the amount with a swipe; while you can also earn points for every beverage you purchase.

1 beverage/ drink = 1 point



The back part of the card provides your personalized card number, card security code and the scope & limitation for usage of the said card. I like the transparent design on the side. A little detail goes a long way. Now the question is, how to avail?

Avail this by: (1) paying 300php for having the Starbucks rewards card which also includes a consumable amount of 300php load; (2) Purchase a minimum amount of 300php and request for a card. It's actually the same, just that for #1, you have an option to get the card and consume the coffee on another day. 

I did # 2 and immediately gained 2 points for the 2 drinks I ordered.

Also, don't forget to register your card at www.starbucks.ph/card to avail 2 freebies:
1. Get a grande drink for free on your next visit.
2. Get a birthday treat on your birthday.

Not bad especially for frequent customers.
