Dairy Queen is a restaurant in the USA that serves food and ice cream in locations across the 50 states. In the course of this article, we will be looking at all the payment methods that are accepted by Dairy Queen and how to use them.
1. Apple Pay
Apple Pay is a payment method that is used by Dairy Queen and its restaurant competitors. It is important to note that the Apple Pay payment method cannot be used in the app to make payments. Rather, it can be used in-store. Using Apple Pay in-store requires an Apple device, such as Apple Watch, or iPhone.
To use Apple Pay at Dairy Queen, simply add your payment card to your account, then head to the counter to scan through a contactless payment terminal to make payment.
2. Using Cash
The use of cash is an age-long practice, used in paying for goods and services at stores. After selecting the food or ice cream of your choice, you will head to the cashier and ask for the pricing of the food items. After this, you will be told the amount you are to pay, then hand over the cash.
3. Debit Card Or Credit Card
Debit or credit cards can be used to make payments at Dairy Queen. You will need to have enough funds in your bank accounts. The most important thing you need is to have debit cards or credit cards whose providers offer discounts and interesting perks for its use in buying merchandise.
To use a debit or credit card, simply head to the counter with your food items, then your debit or credit card to swipe or insert, then key in your PIN.
4. Paying Via Dairy Queen App
Another interesting way of making payment is with the Dairy Queen App. Ordering for ice cream cones and other foods via the app can be done with a debit or credit app, and not Apple Pay. The app gives you an opportunity to accumulate reward points for free, and get discounted treats.
The more purchases you make, the more points you accumulate. When you reach the 200 points mark, you will be eligible for a free small ice cream cone. When you reach 250 reward points, you will be eligible for a free mini-Blizzard. In the app, you can check the number of points you accumulated by visiting the “points” tab that is on the app. After 365 days, any reward points that are left out will expire.
You can get a pick-up via the app, but they do not offer their customers delivery through the app. All the same, they indulge in third-party companies such as Uber Eats, GrubHub, DoorDash, and Postmates.
5. Paying with Gift Cards
You can get store gift cards if you are a fervent Dairy Queen customer. However, you have to ensure that the benefits of the gift card successfully match the value of the food you want to buy. Anything that is not covered with the benefits of the gift card will be compensated with cash.
6. Checks
Dairy Queen also accepts Checks as a means of paying for food. The check however has to be legitimate, unless there will be legal consequences. When you select your food items, you simply head to the counter to make payment by writing a check to the cashier.
