We cover the Dunkin-specific Points system, 10 points per dollar spent, a redemption ladder that starts at 150 points, and Boosted Status that doubles your earning rate after 12 qualifying visits in a quarter. Boosted Status is uniquely a Dunkin feature; Starbucks has no equivalent rate multiplier based on visit frequency.
If you're a Starbucks customer, the reward economy works differently, see our Starbucks Rewards Program explained guide for how Stars and preloaded-card bonuses work.

Best redemption: Specialty coffee or frozen drinks at 950 points (~$95 spent for a ~$5 drink = 5.3% effective return). Breakfast sandwich at 900 points is similar value. Worst redemption: classic donut at 300 points (5% return but low dollar value).
With Boosted Status (12 pts/$1 for 3 months), those return rates jump by 20%, which is why hitting 12 monthly visits matters if you're a regular.
