What birthday treats do members get?
According to Chick-fil-A, One Members choose a Chocolate Chunk Cookie or Chocolate Fudge Brownie, described in the Chick-fil-A birthday reward tiers guide. Silver members choose from seven desserts, including small milkshake, frosted lemonade or coffee and Icedream cup or cone. Krispy Kreme says members receive a birthday reward tied to the birthday in the profile, per the Krispy Kreme Rewards terms.
The reward stays valid for 30 days from receipt. Dunkin' says members who add a birthday can earn a 3X-points birthday bonus, detailed in the Dunkin' Rewards birthday terms. It can be activated the day before, day of, or day after the birthday.
Who needs what saved before the birthday?
You need a loyalty account with a birthday saved before the birthday arrives. Chick-fil-A membership tier controls which dessert choices appear. Krispy Kreme and Dunkin' use the birthday in the profile to trigger the benefit.
Check the account on the birthday and read the date shown for use. If the birthday was entered wrong, fix it early because the timing follows the saved date.
How do you redeem without missing the window?

Take the loaded app to 3459 Hillsborough Rd if that is your closest Dunkin' shop.
- Save the birthday in each loyalty account before the birthday week.
