The Coffee Bean Rewards program from The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf has been revamped by the brand to help stay relevant with today's consumer and offer more tailored rewards. The program is guided by the Rewards Your Way ethos and will provide members with the chance to earn five points for every dollar they spend. These points can be used for redemption across a wide range of rewards catalog options including free drinks and food items, size upgrades and dollar-off discounts to help customers access their points in a multitude of ways.
Vice President, Head of Marketing Americas Dana Castaneda spoke on the Coffee Bean Rewards program saying, "This fall, we’re giving guests more ways to find their flavor, whether that’s discovering a new favorite beverage or enjoying a more personalized rewards experience. From indulging in Pumpkin classics to exploring Hojicha, we are offering more ways for our guests to enjoy their coffee and tea experience.”

What Makes This Trend Stand Out
- Flexible Loyalty Redemption
- Multi-option rewards catalogs create space for cafe brands to differentiate loyalty programs through greater choice, perceived value, and everyday personalization.
- Personalized Beverage Discovery
- Tailored rewards tied to seasonal and emerging drinks support more relevant customer experiences while encouraging trial across coffee and tea menus.
- Points-based Cafe Engagement
- Spend-linked point systems give foodservice operators a scalable way to connect repeat purchases with customized incentives and digital engagement.
Sectors Adopting This
- Coffee Shops

- Foodservice Technology
- Loyalty platforms gain new relevance as restaurants seek systems that manage personalized offers, redemption flexibility, and customer behavior insights.
