Starbucks Refill Policy
A woman, who runs the TikTok account Best of Target, discovered that if you buy a Starbucks drink at Target, you can get free refills. The woman behind the counter then told her: "Yes! But only for hot coffee, iced coffee, and our iced teas."
Eligibility for Refills
To qualify for a free refill, you must:
- Purchase a barista-made drink first with your Starbucks app or card.
- Be a Starbucks Rewards member to get free refills on brewed coffee or tea during a single store visit.
Refill Details
You can get free refills at any Starbucks store nationwide if dining-in. However, there are some conditions:
- You have to stay on the premises and pay $0.54.
- Refills don’t apply to specialty drinks, just hot coffee, iced coffee, and tea.
- Less ice gets you more coffee, so you can pay less for your refill.
Using the Starbucks Card or App
When you use your Starbucks Card or Mobile App to purchase a drink and present it again, you can get free refills of brewed coffee, iced coffee, cold brew, or tea during the same store visit at participating locations.
Additional Information
The water at Starbucks is free. At Kroger Starbucks, Rewards members can also get free refills of select drinks.
Yes, Starbucks refills can be free if you pay for your first drink with a registered Starbucks card via the Starbucks app. If you do not use the app or do not have a registered Starbucks card, then you will have to pay for your refill. Free refills are unlimited, but they can deny you more than one.
