What is the Starbucks summer game?

Starbucks’ summer games are a sweepstake and a puzzle game open to Starbucks Rewards members. Anyone in the United States aged 18 years and over can take part by signing up for the Rewards program on the ‘starbuckssummergame. com’ website. You participate by either “playing” or “spinning” in the game. You get a game play when you sign in for the first time.

An email with a unique link is sent to your email address. By clicking through, you have a chance to win an Instant Game prize or a Sweepstakes entry. A maximum of 2 game plays per day is set for each entrant.

When you have a game play you can “spin” to earn prizes. With each spin, you get a chance to receive a postcard. The 2022 grand prize is won if you get all 4 postcards, featuring an Electric desert, Moonbeams, a Recharge hotel, and a fourth hard-to-get postcard whose features are Unknown. Postcards will also win you instant prizes or a booster. You can win additional spins by completing challenges, including earning 25 or 50 stars in one order, redeeming 50 stars, pre-ordering using the Starbucks app, buying 2 iced drinks together, or a non-dairy sip, or even loading your Starbucks card.
