Looks like McDonald’s is giving its rewards members a sweet deal, teaming up with Snapchat to offer a free month of Snapchat Plus! If you’re a fan of both, you can actually snag this premium subscription without spending an extra dime, just by using your MyMcDonald’s Rewards points.
This cool offer runs from June 10 to July 7, 2025, according to details on the announcement page. To get your free month of Snapchat Plus, you’ll need to be a MyMcDonald’s Rewards member and have 1,500 points in your account. Just open up your McDonald’s app, head over to the “Rewards & Deals” section, and look for the Snapchat Plus icon under “More Rewards.” Once you click that, you can exchange your points for a unique code.
Now, here’s where it gets a little tricky for some folks. After you get your code from the McDonald’s app, you need to head to Snapchat’s redemption website. It’s not something you can just punch into the Snapchat app itself, which has caused a bit of confusion for some users. You will need to log into your Snapchat account on that website, enter the code, and follow the prompts to activate your one-month trial.
There’s a really important catch, though. This offer is only for new Snapchat Plus subscribers. So, if you’ve ever had Snapchat Plus before, even if it was a free trial, your code likely won’t work. This has led to some disappointed users who tried to redeem the offer only to find they were “ineligible.” One user on Reddit shared their frustration, saying, “I redeemed the snapchat plus free month code on mcdonald’s then it said i was ineligible??”
Another user in a separate thread explained the situation, noting,
Just found out that you have to be a new Snapchat plus subscriber to redeem it. It’s at the bottom of the email.
Snapchat Plus itself offers a bunch of neat features that go beyond the regular Snapchat experience. You can get custom app icons, fancy chat wallpapers, and even AI Bitmoji pets. Plus subscribers also often get early access to new features before anyone else, which is a nice perk if you’re big into the app.
This collaboration is a first for McDonald’s, marking the first time they’ve offered a digital subscription service as a redeemable reward. So, if you’ve got those MyMcDonald’s points sitting around and you’ve never tried Snapchat Plus, now might be the perfect time to check it out! Just remember that “new subscribers only” rule to avoid any disappointment.
