Welcome to the official SD Coca-Cola.com/offers / Formerly My Coke Rewards Discussion Thread, proud to talk rewards since 2006! (We often discuss Coke promotions, (texting games, sweepstakes, etc.), which use Coke/MCR/codes or membership info to signup.)

Site: https://us.coca-cola.com/offers

A toast to My Coke Rewards, the Greatest Rewards Program in History! Applause

Coca-Cola.com Offers FAQ, (Formerly My Coke Rewards [MCR]):

- How may I contact them?
  • Phone: 800-520-2653 to reach an agent directly
  • email address: [email protected]
  • Ask Chip, your virtual agent, (formerly Allysa and Hank) on the site footer under the CONTACT US link.
- When does the promotion end?

There is no specific end date for the program.

- Inactivity

Each particular Coke promotion may have its own activity clause.

- Participating Products:
Barq's, Coke, Coke Zero, Dasani, Diet Coke, Fanta, Fresca, Mellow Yellow, Minute Maid, Powerade & Powerade Zero, Fuze, Pibb, Sprite, Seagram's, Tab.

- Values:
Point values per code are no more, All codes are equal value, but check promotion. Check packaging for a MyCokeRewards Label! Not all Coke packages have the MCR logo, (i.e. 6-pack w/glass bottles).
However, in Coke's Give Program to schools, codes still have different values to school donations, see wiki below!

- List of Accepted MCR Letter & Number Code Characters & Character Substition

There are 25 total characters, (letters or numbers only), that are accepted in 14-character MCR codes, (out of 36 available, A-Z, and 1-0). Five of the characters may also be input as substitutions for other similar-looking characters. Either upper- or lower-case letters are accepted. The available characters are:

Letters: B F H J K L M N P R T V W X (No C D E G* I O* Q S* U* Y Z)
Numbers: 4 5 6 7 9 0 (No 1 2 3 8*)

* The five accepted substitute characters for similar-looking characters:
  • B = 8
  • V = U
  • 5 = S
  • 6 = G
  • 0 = O (Zero, '0', is the officially accepted character according to MCR error messages; letter 'O' is the substitute.)

- Where do you find all the codes?
Here are a few ways...
- drink soda
- participate/lurk on this board
- ask friends/family/neighbors/co-workers to save
- dumpster diving
- jumping out of cars upon seeing flaps on the side of the road
- referring a friend on the site
- ask Maids to save for those who travel
- ask recycling centers to save
- purchase on eBay
- sporting events, zoos, parks, etc
- make trades
- become buddies with vending machine stockers
- become the vending machine stocker

The FIFA World Cup Trophy Tour Instant Win (the "Instant Win Game") is open only to legal residents of California only who live within a 100-mile radius of Los Angeles, who are 18 years of age or older at the time of entry.

That should answer that.
Thanks repped.

So I guess the only coke contests that are AMOE or sip and scan on the actual coke page for midwesterners are the fishing rod and heaphones. Seem pretty light even by coke standards! (oh and the Olympics one)

Even after you get 5 that work, it's more work than just entering 5 codes. It will sit there and spin. Than you have to refresh the page and try again. Sometimes two or three times on each icon.
I had no problems with the Firefox Android user agent on my family accounts. No spinning or refreshing the page required. Entered all 5 sip and scans within 2 mins or less.

Switch to wifi and download the pics? You can manually upload the scans as pics.

It's not every account. Be rolling right along and it happens. Still two minutes is way longer than it takes me to enter 5 codes. I'm not complaining. It's still easy money

I would say Kharma....But seriously. Read back a few pages I believe Joan/others had a couple of good ideas. I had zero trouble with a junky tracfone today. 25 minutes accounts done. Maybe invest in a cheap smart phone...I finally excepted this...Bitter pill.....GL

I tried in two accounts and redeemed all five about 4 hours ago. No emails in either account or in junk mail. I will wait til tomorrow and then contact Coke.
The code shows up on the screen after you redeem it. Just copy and paste it and save it.

With all the sip and scan confusion I forgot to say I received my "blanket". They should be sued for calling that a blanket. It's a throw at best. Now on a positive note it's not white. More of a cream. If you get a hat put that beside it. The hat is white.

Holy cow, was that ever too much effort. You'd *think* that a company as big as Coke would know about the BS that's going on with their ridiculous-to-actually-use Sip & Scan garbage and they'd go ahead and, well, try a QR code, or something of the kind. No. No, they'll continue to use this crap.

sip & scan is actually a form of qr code. QR code is just detecting shapes and colors to recognize a code. S&S is exactly the same.

You need to go into "My Rewards" and redeem for the Target GC

That's what I meant by doing all the steps. I did that, and even logged back in to make sure once I went to my e-mail and it wasn't there. Nothing is showing up in my MyRewards section, so I know I must have done all the added steps. And, of course, the Target offer says I have reached my limit. It just appears to be one of those delayed e-mail things, but I've never had it take this long before.

And to be clear...I did check my Spam folder as well.

Coke is strange in that some offers they require all these extra steps, and then other times like this, they make you do it all. It seems like almost 8 months in, there would be some sort of standardization by now.

No. Unfortunately, the only thing in there is a message from the "BraziliaWomenTeam" letting me know that sexy women are looking for dates. I will be sure to reply to that right away. That could be better than $5 Target gift cards. The women in the e-mail look hot! And they want to date me!

Sometimes it takes like 24 hours to get the e-mail but it will come eventually. Patience, young duckling, patience.

If after 24 hours you don't receive the emails, contact them. Phone is usually best for me. you can ask them to resend the emails.

Update:

Way to go, Google! Put an e-mail that is virtually identical to plenty of other e-mails I have gotten, some as recently as 2 months ago, with no problem (all being sent right to the inbox) directly into TRASH! Not even the Spam folder. I didn't even realize ANY e-mail client would do that except if it matched a user created filter..which this obviously didn't. And unlike most other e-mail clients, I can't seem to find a way to say "This is not Spam" (Or Trash in this case) so it won't happen again in the future. I can move it to my inbox, but I guess Google never wants to know that their algorithm is faulty. Sort of like their YouTube demonetization algorithm that constantly flags videos of stray cats eating food as not suitable for advertisers...all while allowing a jackass to show (and laugh at) suicide victims and that after being SOOOO sorry, putting a video of himself tazing a dead rat. Thanks Google!

That's Google for you! Protecting people by not allowing them to have any say in their own accounts for 14 years!

I should also point out that 2 or the other 3 accounts I used are also Gmail and they had no issues with it.
