Starbucks: New Starbucks Rewards – Get Gold Status with Any Purchase Before May 2

Starbucks Canada revamped their Starbucks Rewards program this week (April 12, 2016).

To promote the new rewards program, make just one purchase by May 2, 2016 and you’ll automatically get Gold Status (instead of having to collect 300 stars in a 12-month period). If you’re already a Gold member, you membership will automatically be extended for a year.

The new Starbucks Rewards is here!
It’s a program that rewards you based on what you buy, no matter how often you visit. Now you’ll collect 2 Stars for every $1 spent on your registered Starbucks Card or the Starbucks® app.

Star Rewards
Collect 125 Stars for a Star Reward, good for anything on the menu. Starting today, you can even redeem rewards when you order and pay ahead with your phone.

Monthly Double-Star Days
We’ll surprise you each month with this new Gold benefit: a special day to collect 4 Stars for every $1 you spend. Check your inbox to know when your day is coming.

There’s a lot of people complaining about the changes to the new Rewards program as it makes it more difficult for most customers to get free rewards. Here’s a video that explains who benefits/ who loses from the changes:
