Dunkin' Donuts now has more than 7.5 million DD Perks members. According to Sherrill Kaplan, Vice President of Digital Marketing and Innovation for Dunkin' Donuts U.S., the Perks Week program has proven to be a popular way for the brand to recognize its most loyal guests. "We are excited to bring back this program again, rewarding both new and existing DD Perks members in appreciation for their loyalty and passion for our brand. The program has proven to be successful, with our most recent Perks Week program in May generating higher DD Perks sales with a larger On-the-Go Mobile Ordering mix than any other week in 2017. We also saw our highest volume of mobile orders since the launch of the platform, and new user trial rates doubling during the week."

"We are excited to partner with Dunkin' Donuts during Perks Week, presenting exclusive Masterpass offers to current and new DD Perks members," said Linda Kirkpatrick, Executive Vice President, Merchants and Acceptance, Mastercard. "Together with Dunkin', we're combining cutting edge payments technology with valuable offers to celebrate the holiday season and promote one of the most successful loyalty programs in the world."

Earlier this year, Dunkin' Donuts began accepting Masterpass by Mastercard as a new digital payment option so guests can quickly and easily purchase and reload virtual Dunkin' Donuts cards on DunkinDonuts.com and the Dunkin' Mobile App. Using Masterpass on DunkinDonuts.com and in the Dunkin' Mobile App to purchase or reload a DD Card ensures your morning cup of coffee is never further than a tap away.

The DD Perks Rewards Program rewards guests nationwide with points toward free Dunkin' Donuts beverages for every visit they make at participating Dunkin' Donuts locations. With DD Perks, guests earn five points for every dollar they spend on qualifying purchases at Dunkin' Donuts when they pay using an enrolled DD Card, either plastic or via the Dunkin' Mobile App. Once a member accrues 200 points, he or she receives a coupon for a free beverage of their choice, redeemable at participating Dunkin' Donuts restaurants. To enroll in DD Perks and for complete details about the program, visit www.DDPerks.com.

Dunkin' Donuts gives DD Perks members the exclusive opportunity to order ahead and speed past the line in store through On-the-Go Mobile Ordering. DD Perks members can place a mobile order up to 24 hours in advance, select their desired location, and then simply confirm via the Dunkin' Donuts Mobile® App when they are ready to pick up their order inside the restaurant, or at the drive-thru. The order is automatically paid for using their Dunkin' Donuts Card within the App. In the restaurant, DD Perks members have no need to wait, as they can speed past the line in store and go straight to pick up their items at a designated area. They also have the ability to save their recent orders as a favorite to speed up their next Dunkin' run.
