First check that the receipt hasn’t expired—remember: you only have 7 days to scan a receipt before it expires.

If all methods have failed, contact our fan relations team here and select “Points and Rewards” from the dropdown window. From here you’ll be able to upload a picture of your receipt. Our fan relations team will assist with getting you the DQ® Rewards Points you’ve earned.
If your receipt does not have a loyalty barcode printed at the bottom, your purchase is from a store that does not participate in the DQ® Rewards loyalty program.
Receipts from non-participating DQ locations do not have a loyalty barcode printed at the bottom and cannot be scanned or submitted for points.
