PSA: Culver's Actually Goes All Out For Your Birthday
You don't have to visit The Points Guy's website to know that joining a rewards program can be beneficial, but you may not know that some of your favorite fast food chains offer points that are kind of sweet. This includes Culver's. This eatery, which is known for its delicious Butterburgers, frozen custard, and Wisconsin cheese curds, has the secret sauce for making you feel feted on your birthday. Join its Delicious Rewards program and you can mark your birthday and half-birthday with a free scoop with two toppings. Culver's Delicious Rewards is a loyalty program where members get perks. Rewards members earn 10 points for every $1 spent at Culver's restaurants and on the restaurant's website and app, and the points can then be redeemed for free items.
What makes a Culver's dessert an extra-special birthday treat? Culver's rich and creamy custard comes in a variety of flavors. If you love classic chocolate or vanilla, this spot has you covered, but flavors like raspberry cheesecake, cookie dough, and butter pecan could be on the menu for those with a more adventurous palate.
How many points do you need?
When it comes to fast food items that are truly made from scratch, Culver's frozen custard is at the top of the list. It's made multiple times a day by combining milk, cream, and pasteurized egg to create a thick, velvety smooth texture that you have to experience to understand. It's so beloved that during the summer, a single Culver's restaurant might scoop upwards of 1,600 scoops a night — that's a lot of frozen custard. But it's also why you want to make sure to collect your scoop on your birthday.
So how can you join Culver's Delicious Reward to enjoy your own birthday treat as well as other free food until your special day rolls around? Visit its website and sign up. Once you hit 500 points, you can start reaping the benefits, although you don't need to redeem any points at all to collect your totally-free birthday treat. Points expire 365 days after they are earned, so while it might be fun to watch them pile up, don't let them get so high you don't get to enjoy them.
