McDonald's is the global fast-food chain built on burgers, chicken, breakfast, and fries, and in the U.S. nearly all of its meaningful savings now flow through the McDonald's app rather than paper coupons. The app is the hub: it houses app-only deals, MyMcDonald's Rewards, and Mobile Order & Pay for pickup or delivery, which makes downloading it the single most useful step for anyone who eats here regularly. On the value-menu side, the McValue lineup and Meal Deals target budget-conscious ordering, with items under $3, a $4 breakfast meal deal, a $5 Meal Deal, and a Buy One, Add One for $1 offer that lets you tack on a second item cheaply. Extra Value Meals bundle a main, fries, and drink to save versus buying each a la carte. The rewards engine is straightforward once you opt in: you earn 100 points per dollar spent, and points bank toward free food that you can redeem once you cross 1,500 points, so ordinary orders steadily build toward a freebie. New app users also typically get a welcome offer, such as a free menu item with a qualifying purchase. Prices and participation vary by franchise location, so specifics can differ store to store. For frequent visitors, the payoff comes from ordering through the app every time, letting deals, points, and mobile pickup work together. Every offer listed here comes from McDonald's official channels, reviewed before it goes live.
Download the McDonald's app and opt in to MyMcDonald's Rewards, since that's where the deals and points live. You earn 100 points per dollar spent, and once you reach 1,500 points you can redeem for free food. New app users should look for a welcome offer, such as a free item with a qualifying purchase. To order, use Mobile Order & Pay: within about five miles of a participating restaurant, select the location, place and pay for your order using debit or credit, Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal, or Venmo, then choose Curbside, Front Counter, Table Service, or Drive Thru pickup when you arrive. Value ordering also helps, so look for McValue items under $3, the $4 breakfast meal, the $5 Meal Deal, and Buy One, Add One for $1. Because pricing and participation vary by location, confirm current offers in the app for your restaurant.
Shipping options and costs are shown at the McDonald's checkout; many orders qualify for free standard delivery above a minimum spend.
Returns follow the McDonald's policy — check their site for the current window and conditions.

You earn 100 points for every $1 you spend on eligible products when you order through the app or scan your code in restaurant. Points build up on everyday orders, so frequent visits add up quickly. Be sure to scan before or during your order so the purchase is credited. New app users can also get a free featured item with their first $1+ app purchase.
You can start redeeming your MyMcDonald's Rewards when you reach 1,500 points, with more rewards unlocked at higher point tiers. The tiered structure means saving up points opens access to larger menu items. You redeem within the app when placing or picking up an order. Keep in mind points expire, so use them before they lapse.
Yes. Points expire on the first day of the month after the sixth month from the day they were earned. In practice that gives you roughly six months to use each batch of points. Redeeming regularly is the best way to avoid losing value. Since you earn 100 points per $1, active app users usually reach the 1,500-point redemption threshold well within that window.
It includes your choice of a McDouble or McChicken, small fries, a 4-piece Chicken McNuggets and a small soft drink, all for $5. It is one of McDonald's value options alongside the McValue menu and items under $3. Prices and participation may vary by location. Ordering through the app also lets you earn MyMcDonald's Rewards points on the purchase.
In the app, select a participating restaurant nearby, place and pay for your order, then follow the app instructions for Curbside, Front Counter, Table Service or Drive Thru pickup.

Availability of each pickup option can vary by location.
