Chipotle loyalty program earns you rewards, free chips & guac

Sharing is caring!

Chipotle Mexican Grill finally joins the long list of restaurants offering a loyalty program.

After testing the program in a few markets last year, they’re now rolling it out nationally. If you frequent the fast-casual Mexican restaurant often, you’ll definitely want to join for lots of rewards and bonuses.

Chipotle Rewards is similar to most restaurant loyalty programs — the more you spend, the more you earn. And, along the way, they promise exclusive offers for members, including a gift on your birthday.

Here’s how it works:

First, you will have to download its app and create an account. (You can also create an account online, but you will still need to download the app to check-in at the register.) Then, you’re ready to take a big bite of the program’s benefits.

Earn points by ordering ahead online or scan your code at checkout.

To whet your appetite, earn a FREE order of chips and guacamole, after your first purchase. (The bonus sign-up offer ends June 23 and, to qualify, you must make a minimum purchase of $5.)

EAT — Order in the app, online or scan your code at the register.

EARN — Get 10 points per $1 spent. Get rewarded faster with Extra Point Days. Plus, earn a bonus 100 points for trying something new on the menu.

ENJOY — For every 1,250 points earned, get one FREE entrée. (That means you’ll have to spend $125 to earn a freebie — roughly, 15 to 18 entrées, depending on the menu item and any extras you add. If you purchase a drink with your meal, you’ll reach the threshold faster.)
