Dairy Queen mentions a birthday surprise for DQ Rewards members but doesn’t say what it includes, so there’s no specific birthday deal to plan around. There’s no item, value, deadline or terms for it, so don’t count on a free treat.
What Dairy Queen Is
Dairy Queen is an ice cream and fast-food chain, and DQ Rewards is its free loyalty program, run through the DQ App. Members earn 10 DQ Points for every $1 and redeem them for cones, Blizzard Treats, Chicken Strip Baskets and more.
What You Can Count On
The points are the part Dairy Queen spells out. Ordering in the app, online or at a DQ earns 10 points per $1, and new members get a special Shake welcome offer in the app. The birthday surprise is a single line on the rewards page and a mention in the app’s description. Dairy Queen’s terms don’t mention a birthday.
If You Join Anyway
Download the DQ App, join DQ Rewards and put your birthday on your account, then check the app near your birthday. You can’t edit the birthday on your account once it’s saved. If you enter it wrong, you have to ask for a correction through the Help & Feedback link on the My DQ tab, then Contact Us, then the Send Us A Message form, so enter it carefully.
Eligibility and Cost
DQ Rewards is free. You have to be at least 13 to use Dairy Queen’s sites, and members under the age of majority in their state need a parent or legal guardian supervising.
