SEATTLE, February 1, 2018 – Today, #starbucks (NASDAQ: SBUX) and Chase (NYSE: JPM) announce the availability of the #starbucks Rewards™ Visa® Card, a co-brand credit card integrated directly into the Starbucks Rewards™ loyalty program. Customers using the card earn Stars with every purchase both in and out of #starbucks stores wherever Visa is accepted worldwide, and can be redeemed for #food and beverage items at more than 8,000 participating* #starbucks locations. Cardmembers will also become members of the #starbucksrewards loyalty program, receiving exclusive perks and benefits already enjoyed by more than 14 million members daily.

“It’s important to us to make earning Rewards as easy for our customers as possible, and the #starbucksrewards #visacard is a powerful tool for us to do that because of how easily it fits into their daily lives,” said #mattryan, executive vice president and chief strategy officer for #starbucks. “This credit card also makes every day more rewarding for #starbucks and Chase customers through the ability to quickly earn Stars and benefits - including more #food and beverage Rewards for any occasion.”

“We want to give cardmembers who can’t live without their #starbucks beverage an easy way to earn more Rewards,” said #jenniferroberts, head of Digital Products for Chase. “The #starbucksrewards #visacard lets them earn Stars on every purchase they make so their next cup is that much more rewarding.”

Cardmembers will receive a physical card within 7-10 days of their application being approved, and a digital card will be immediately loaded into the Starbucks® mobile app for customers to start earning Stars right away.
