To get started, you first need to be registered to the Starbucks Rewards program so you’ll need to enroll in your Starbucks card to the app.
Payment, stars, and e-stickers
Your Starbucks Rewards card will be your main payment method for in-app orders and don’t worry if you don’t have enough load/money in it as you can now reload through the app with debit or credit cards. With this system, the app will automatically credit your earned stars or e-stickers.
How to order ahead
Upon opening the app, make sure that your location toggle is turned on and that you have enough money in your Starbucks Rewards card. Then tap the “Order” icon at the bottom of the screen.
Choose your Starbucks store nearby to pick up from then start placing your order. Feel free to customize your drink.
Afterward, review your order and choose your preferred pickup option; there’s in-store, curbside, drive-thru, or outdoor pickup. Note that some pickup options are limited depending on the Starbucks store you chose.
Once you decided on your pickup preference, you may now proceed to checkout and pay via your Starbucks Rewards card. Click on “Submit Order” then the store will now prepare your food and drinks. The app will show your estimated wait time.
When your order is ready, you can breezily proceed to the pickup area and hit “Check in” that’s found in the app to notify the barista.
And that’s it! Enjoy your freshly made beverage/s on the go.
