You will earn Stars based on the value of your purchase at the rate of one (1) Star for each United States Dollars fifty cent (USD0.50) spent using any of your registered Starbucks Card.
Currently, there are two (2) levels of benefits within Starbucks Rewards™ Program that are determined by the number of Stars that you accumulate in your account for each consecutive twelve (12)-months period.
Green Level: By registering only one (1) of your activated Starbucks Card, you are automatically enrolled into the “Green Level” of the Starbucks Rewards™ Program, which means you will receive the following benefits:

• Double stars earned on the first purchase within 30 days after registration.
• Earn 5 bonus stars for every cup of promotional beverage during first week of launch.
Gold Level: Upon earning two hundred (200) Stars in a twelve (12)-months period, you will be placed at the “Gold Level” and your Star balance will be reset. the reset at Gold Level means the Stars will automatically be converted into a number of free drink(s) (rounded down) and will only indicate the balance remaining Stars after such conversion. Gold Level benefits include:
• All Green Level benefits (subject to certain conditions), plus:
• Birthday Reward
• One Free Drink Reward. You can redeem for a free tall beverage with every 100 Stars collected. (Free drink offer is valid for 1 month after date of reward)
• Earn 5 bonus stars for every cup of promotional beverage during first week of launch.
• Earn 7 bonus stars for every serve-ware purchase.
