Burger King has partnered with Robinhood to provide patrons with free cryptocurrency when they make a qualifying purchase either in-restaurant or via the BK app. The promotion will see Royal Rewards members receiving either a Dogecoin or one of 20 Bitcoins or 200 Ethereum coins, while supplies last. Customers only need to spend $5 or more when visiting the restaurant or making a purchase online or via the BK app through Sunday, November 21, 2021.

The Burger King free cryptocurrency promotion with Robinhood only requires participants to have an existing Robinhood account or make one in order to receive their digital reward. The actual value of the various cryptocurrencies ranges from small to large, but could fluctuate in the near future to help customers turn a big profit.
