Baskin-Robbins Rewards is a customer loyalty program that allows a Loyalty Member to receive and redeem Rewards and Offers (“Baskin-Robbins Rewards”). No business entities, third-party aggregators, organizations, or groups may register for Baskin-Robbins Rewards or accumulate Visits.
A “Loyalty Member” is someone who has enrolled for Baskin-Robbins Rewards. You can enroll as a Loyalty Member for Baskin-Robbins Rewards at Baskin-Robbins, Find A Shop | Baskin-Robbins , or through the Baskin-Robbins mobile application (“BR App”). You will be required to create an account (“Baskin-Robbins Account”) and choose to enroll in Baskin-Robbins Rewards at account creation. For existing Baskin-Robbins Account holders, you can choose to join Baskin-Robbins Rewards in your account settings. For information on how we use personal information associated with your Baskin-Robbins Account, please see our Privacy Policy.
“Rewards” are discounts earned through Baskin-Robbins Rewards by making Visits. “Offers” are discounts earned through Baskin-Robbins Rewards either by making Visits or distributed as promotional offers exclusively to Loyalty Members. A “Visit” is a purchase of Qualifying Products at a participating Baskin-Robbins shop. No Visits or Rewards may be earned until you enroll as a Loyalty Member. Loyalty Members can make a Visit online in the BR App or on our website so long as they are logged in to their Baskin-Robbins Account. You must present your Baskin-Robbins Rewards QR code at purchase when making a Visit in shop. Qualifying Products are limited to Baskin-Robbins products. Qualifying Products do not include bottled beverages, any merchandise, or gift cards. To receive a Visit, you must spend a dollar amount (for example, free scoop rewards will not count towards a Visit) on Qualifying Products. A Visit does not consider the total spent so long as it is a dollar amount. You may not receive additional Visits that occur on the same day within ten minutes of each other. This timeframe may vary and change. Visits for purchases of Qualifying Products in the BR App or on our website will be counted at your set pick-up time. If you cancel an order of Qualifying Products, such order will not be considered for purposes of accumulating Visits. Purchases on third party platforms will not count towards a Visit. Rewards and Visits until Rewards are earned may vary.
You can only apply one Offer per transaction. You can apply up to three combined Rewards and Offers per transaction. For example, you can apply three Rewards and no Offers, or you can apply two Rewards and one Offer. You cannot use three Rewards and an Offer in one transaction. Only one discount (from Rewards and Offers) can be applied per item per transaction. Partial Rewards or Offers will not be issued. If the entire value of a Reward or Offer is not used when redeemed, the remaining balance will be forfeited, no remaining balance will be refunded, nor will any remaining balance be available for application toward future orders. Neither Rewards nor Offers are gift certificates. Rewards and Offers are promotional and have no cash value. Neither Rewards nor Offers may be exchanged for cash, any cash equivalent, or any other products, or combined with other discounts or coupons. Baskin-Robbins has no responsibility to retroactively apply Visits, Rewards, or Offers or use of the Baskin-Robbins Rewards program.
To redeem Rewards or Offers in-shop, you will select the Reward and/or Offer you wish to apply in the BR App and present the QR Code to be scanned in shop. To redeem Rewards or Offers in the BR App or on our website, you will select the Reward and/or Offer you wish to apply in the BR App or on our website before making your purchase.
You can check your Rewards and Offers in the BR App or on our website. After you redeem a Reward or Offer, you may need to refresh your browser to see the redemption reflected. Rewards and Offers may expire, and any expiration date is visible in the BR App or on our website.
If you become a Loyalty Member, your Baskin-Robbins Rewards will be permanently tied to your Baskin-Robbins Account. If you wish to delete your Baskin-Robbins Account, you will lose any accumulated Visits, Rewards, and Offers as well as any order history. If you wish to delete or opt out of Loyalty, your Baskin-Robbins Account, and anything tied to your Baskin-Robbins Account such as gifts cards, order history, and access to Baskin-Robbins Birthday Club (if enrolled), will also be deleted.
Loyalty Members may not sell, transfer, or assign Visits, Rewards, or Offers, and a Loyalty Member is only eligible to receive Visits as described in these terms. You may only have one Baskin-Robbins Rewards account. Baskin-Robbins reserves the right to terminate a Baskin-Robbins Account and/or participation, including cancelling Visits, Rewards, and/or Offers, in the Baskin-Robbins Rewards if the Loyalty Member has violate the Privacy Policy or these Terms, or if the use of the Loyalty Member’s account is unauthorized, fraudulent, or otherwise unlawful or in violation of any of those policies or terms. Baskin-Robbins also reserves the right to cancel Visits, Rewards, or Offers on an account if it is determined that (a) such Visits, Rewards, or Offers were incorrectly posted to the account or (b) the Visits, Rewards, or Offers were obtained fraudulently. Baskin-Robbins determinations of participant eligibility or any questions or disputes arising under the Baskin-Robbins Rewards program shall be final and binding and not subject to challenge or appeal.
You are responsible for all activity on your Baskin-Robbins Account. All information submitted must be truthful and accurate. It is your responsibility to ensure that information provided remains current, and to promptly notify us of any changes. You are responsible for restricting access to and maintaining confidentiality of your Baskin-Robbins Account and password.

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY – IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. YOU AND DUNKIN’ BRANDS AGREE TO GIVE UP ANY RIGHTS TO LITIGATE CLAIMS IN A COURT OR BEFORE A JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION WITH RESPECT TO A CLAIM. OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU WOULD HAVE IF YOU WENT TO COURT, SUCH AS ACCESS TO DISCOVERY, ALSO MAY BE UNAVAILABLE OR LIMITED IN ARBITRATION.
WE BOTH AGREE TO ARBITRATE. You hereby agree that any dispute between you and Dunkin’ Brands and its agents, employees, officers, directors, principals, successors, assigns, subsidiaries or affiliates (collectively for purposes of this section, “Dunkin’ Brands”) arising from or relating to (a) your use or misuse of the DD/BR Online Services (including without limitation any Dunkin’ Card or Baskin-Robbins Card), (b) these Terms and their interpretation or the breach, termination or validity thereof or (c) the relationships which result from these Terms, including disputes about the validity, scope or enforceability of this arbitration provision (collectively, "Covered Disputes") will be settled by binding arbitration in Suffolk County, Commonwealth of Massachusetts administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Commercial Arbitration Rules (available at www.adr.org), in effect on the date thereof. If there is a conflict between AAA Rules and the rules set forth in this Agreement to Arbitrate, the rules set forth in this Agreement to Arbitrate will govern. For purposes of this section, these Terms and related transactions will be subject to and governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. sec. 1-16 (FAA).
WHAT IS ARBITRATION: Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court and seeks to resolve disputes more quickly. Instead of a judge or a jury, the case will be decided by a neutral arbitrator who has the power to award the same damages and relief that a court can.
PRE-ARBITRATION PROCEDURES. Prior to initiating any arbitration, the initiating party will give the other party at least 60-days' advance written notice of its intent to file for arbitration. Dunkin’ Brands will provide such notice by e-mail to your e-mail address on file with Dunkin’ Brands and you must provide such notice by e-mail to customerservice@dunkinbrands.com with “Legal Dispute” appearing in the subject line. During such 60-day notice period, we agree to endeavor to settle amicably by mutual discussions any Covered Disputes. Failing such amicable settlement and expiration of the notice period, either party may initiate arbitration.
ARBITRATION PROCEDURES. To initiate arbitration, you or Dunkin’ Brands must do the following things:
(1) Write a demand for Arbitration. The demand must include a description of the claim and the amount of damages sought to be recovered. You can find a copy of a Demand for Arbitration at www.adr.org.
(2) Send three copies of the Demand for Arbitration, plus the appropriate filing fee to: American Arbitration Associate, Case Filing Services, 1101 Laurel Oak Road, Suite 100 Voorhees, NJ 08043.
(3) Send one copy of the Demand for Arbitration to the other party.
Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA's rules. If, however, you are able to demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, Dunkin’ Brands will pay as much of the filing, administration and arbitrator fees as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive for you. If the arbitrator determines the claim(s) you assert in the arbitration are frivolous, you agree to reimburse Dunkin’ Brands for all fees associated with the arbitration that Dunkin’ Brands paid on your behalf, which you otherwise would be obligated to pay under the AAA's rules.
AUTHORITY OF ARBITRATOR. The arbitrator will have the power to grant whatever relief would be available in court under law or in equity and any award of the arbitrator(s) will be final and binding on each of the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.
NO CLASS ACTIONS. Dunkin’ Brands and you agree that any Covered Dispute will be submitted to arbitration on an individual basis only. Neither Dunkin’ Brands nor you are entitled to arbitrate any Covered Dispute as a class, representative or private attorney action and the arbitrator(s) will have no authority to proceed on a class, representative or private attorney general basis.
WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE THEIR CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO GO TO COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY, instead electing that all claims and disputes shall be resolved by arbitration. Arbitration procedures are typically more limited, more efficient and less costly than rules applicable in court and are subject to very limited review by a court. In the event any litigation should arise between you and Dunkin’ Brands in any state or federal court in a suit to vacate or enforce an arbitration award or otherwise, YOU AND DUNKIN’ BRANDS WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL, instead electing that the dispute be resolved by a judge. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE BEEN ADVISED THAT YOU MAY CONSULT WITH AN ATTORNEY IN DECIDING TO ACCEPT THIS AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE.
OPT-OUT OF AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE. You can decline this agreement to arbitrate by emailing Dunkin’ Brands at customerservice@dunkinbrands.com and providing the requested information as follows: (1) Your Name; (2) the URL of the Terms and Agreement to Arbitrate Disputes; (3) Your Address; (4) Your Phone Number; (5) and clear statement that you wish to opt out of this arbitration provision in the Terms. The Opt-Out Notice must be emailed no later than 30 days after the date you first accept the Terms by using the DD/BR Online Services.
If any provision of the agreement to arbitrate in this section is found unenforceable, the remaining arbitration terms will be enforced. In any circumstances where the Agreement to Arbitrate Disputes permits the parties to litigate in court, then such dispute between us arising under the Terms or your misuse of the DD/BR Online Services will be subject to the jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts located in Boston, Massachusetts, and governed in accordance with the laws of the state of Massachusetts, excluding its conflict of law rules.
You are solely responsible for any and all duties, taxes, levies or fees (including any sales, use or withholding taxes) imposed on or in connection with these Terms or the DD/BR Online Services by any authority.
