Are you a fan of Chick-fil-A? Have you downloaded the Chick-Fil-A app? If not, what are you waiting for? The Chick-Fil-A app makes ordering ahead of time easy for the drive though take out or even sit-down meals. Through the app, you can set up payment methods like PayPal or a credit card for smooth transactions by paying with your phone. Perhaps the best reason for using the app is that you earn points for every purchase at any Chick-Fil-A restaurant that you can eventually cash in for various menu items.
The app is available for free to download on the Apple App Store and the Google play store. Once installed you will have to set up an account to start accumulating points. The payment methods are optional if you’d rather pay in person in the restaurant or at the drive-thru.
When you first open the app, it will prompt you to try to find the closest Chick-Fil-A restaurant near you. If you allow location services on the app it will automatically list the nearest Chick-Fil-A. You can also search by city, state, or zip.
Once you choose the store you want to visit you can order ahead of time. This is a great feature if you have a short lunch between classes or a short lunch break when working. You can set your order for carry-out, drive-thru or dine-In.
The app is very user-friendly and easy to navigate through the menu and ordering process. The app shows clean clear photos of the items you are ordering including price, calories, and customization options.
Points are earned and accumulated after each purchase through the app or have the QR code within the app scanned at the register. Depending on how much you spend at Chick-Fil-A over a year the more points you can accumulate with a three-tier member system. The Basic Chick-Fil-A One member earns 10 points for every $1 spent. The Silver Chick-Fil-A One member earns 11 points for every $1 spent. The Red Chick-Fil-A One member earns 12 points for every $1 spent.
The points can add up fast. To redeem simply choose a menu item that your points can cover then add it to your rewards.
