okay I have the mc donalds app but where on the app do I scan the code or put the code in to receive a prize
Hi Bonnie,
On the Home page in the app there should be a button that says Play Now at the top. If you tap that, you’ll be able to scan the code.
I can’t find where to put in the code either. I don’t have an option anywhere on the app to put in a code
Is it possible that the app needs to be updated?
Hi, um that “Play now” options is not appearing in my app, do you know why?
I can’t in my codes 🙁
Are you able to update the app? Maybe it hasn’t rolled out fully yet.
There’s no where to enter this code. What’s up?
This is not working on the application at all – again !! I’m saying again because on Android phones when there was a monopoly game was not working either only on Apple phones was working so you guys (McDonald) making a game without testing it first on the app – what a scam and additional fake to make profit – Hope is not like that Monopoly scam from the 90’s …https://www.cnbc.com/2020/02/07/how-mcmillions-scam-rigged-the-mcdonalds-monopoly-game.html
Is anybody else having issues with redeeming the code through the app? It keeps telling me invalid code but i’m scanning the thing I peeled off of the eligible items and the codes don’t work.
I go on the app hit play now, all i am getting is a error web page not available.
There is no option to redeem the code on the app!
i cant even find the code? i peeled the sticker off but there is no code under there?
I have the “play now” option but touching it or the “order now” button beside it doesn’t do anything at all, very frustrating – I have checked to see if the app needs updating on my phone and it says it’s all up to date. Am I doing something wrong or is there an issue with the app?
The “Want Prize With That” header is not working on my Android phone. I can’t click anywhere to interact with the game.
What a scam. Some “smart” marketers figured they can get more people’s data by dangling a carrot of “maybe” getting something for free. Nothing is free.
It works well.. Peel off the sticker say: from the beverage cup and peel off the sticker’s glue paper layer to see the code#. You can then show this code number to the cellphone camera (mcD app) which automatically scans and declare your prize
I’m also have the same issue my is updated and I still don’t have option of play now? So frustrating.
Not working on iphone either
It doesn’t work you can’t put the number in there’s no where to put it
It doesn’t work
I also peeled the sticker and no code was under it!?!?!
I just Uninstaller my old McDonalds app and installed a new one. There is no “play now” option in the new app.
I have no idea how this works.
sucks
I think I may have discovered why people may not be finding the Play Now/Scan Code option?
I typically avoid installing any/all apps on my phone. But when I learned that you could win $15K in this contest, I decided to download the McD’s app.
(Figured I might as well give it a shot, as I usually buy 2 coffees a day from McD’s. so 2 chances daily at that $15K!! As the saying goes…..You can’t win if you don’t play.)
Upon downloading, there was no option anywhere on the app, to allow me to play this contest. I started to think that maybe I needed to make at least one purchase while scanning My Rewards account, before the Play option would appear?
However, I decided to remove the app, then scan for the app from my coffee cup (from this contest). Assumed that would give me the most current version of the app? Still no go. Rinsed and repeated once more. But this time, I opted into receiving notifications from McD’s (I had declined receiving notifications on first 2 downloads/sign ups). Bingo!! The ‘Play Now’ option appeared, which then led me to the ‘Scan Now’ option.
This helped me. Hoping it might help someone else too.
@Kaley
I think the scanner is very temperamental. I also got that invalid code warning. I found that I had to get the code focused inside of the outlined oblong circle reasonably quickly and hold my phone/camera very steady.
I have the app, I see the “Play Now” button at the top of the screen
It worked ONCE, the first time I tried scanning a code. A day later, pressing the “Play Now” button does absolutely NOTHING. Doesn’t flinch, doesn’t give error. It’s like there’s no function associated with the little square box (like if it were just a graphical object)
I’ve cleared cache, I’ve stopped app and restarted it…I’ve not logged out and logged in, nor have I tried to uninstall and reinstall…guidance please
Same. I’ve got a coffee every morning for the last 3 days and entered those 3 codes just fine.
Today I tried to press the “Play Now” button and nothing happens at all.
Seems like a multi billion dollar company can’t make a simple button on an app work.
Is anyone having issues with actually redeeming a prize? I scanned the code, and it told me I won a free apple turnover. It’s been 2 days and I can see that it says I won it, but how do I redeem it??? I tried claim prize but it doesn’t show up. What happened to just handing the sticker to the cashier (smh)
There is no prize now section on my app.
I just got coffees and peeled off the pieces to enter it and app says already been claimed. Guess this has been scammed already.
How do you play without a cell phone?
the app is not working for us to enter the contest. also not available on a desk top. fix it
