What is MyMcDonald’s Rewards?
It’s the company’s loyalty program designed to reward frequent customers. For every dollar you spend, you earn 100 points that can be redeemed for free food, such as a McChicken, fries, or even a Big Mac. It’s important to note that points expire six months after the date they were earned.
Redeeming your rewards is very simple. If you place your order through the app, just go to the Rewards section, choose the item you want, and tap Add to Mobile Order. If you prefer to make your purchase at the restaurant or at the Drive-Thru, select your reward the same way, but this time choose Use at Restaurant to generate a 4-digit code. Give that code to the cashier before paying, and that’s it.
At the moment, it’s not possible to redeem rewards when placing a delivery order, so plan your visit accordingly to make the most of your points.

What are the TinyTAN?
The TinyTAN are one of the most popular creations among K-pop fans, especially BTS fans. These animated characters were developed by HYBE (formerly BigHit Entertainment) with the goal of bringing adorable and cartoonish versions of each member of the South Korean band to life.
Over time, the TinyTAN have become a brand in their own right. They have starred in animated videos, advertising campaigns, collaborations with major companies, and a wide variety of collectible products such as dolls, clothing, accessories, and even special menu editions at international fast-food chains.
The origin of the TinyTAN
The TinyTAN first appeared in 2019 as part of an animation project aimed at representing the charisma and personality of each BTS member. Their name comes from the combination of “tiny” and “tan,” referring to Bangtan Sonyeondan, the band’s original name.
What do the TinyTAN represent?
Each character reflects unique aspects of the BTS members, from their style to their most characteristic gestures. In addition, the TinyTAN were designed not only to entertain but also to convey positive messages related to friendship, confidence, self-love, and hope—values that are part of the band’s philosophy.
