Circle K Adds More Ways to Earn with Inner Circle Rewards Program: Every Visit Counts

• Circle K's Inner Circle rewards program now turns everyday stops, from qualifying fuel-ups to coffee runs and snack pickups, into “Visits”, unlocking savings of up to $1 off per gallon.
• Existing accounts and phone numbers carry over automatically with no re-enrollment required.
• All members earn double Visits on September 2, plus 5¢ off per gallon with every fuel up for 60 days.

CHARLOTTE, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Circle K®, the global convenience store chain, is redesigning its Inner Circle rewards program to reward customers simply for showing up. Starting September 2, every Visit counts. Every qualifying fuel-up, coffee run or snack stop earns a Visit, and every Visit moves members closer to their next reward*.

Here’s how it works in practice:

• Earn a Visit on every qualifying fuel-up or in-store purchase, just by entering a phone number at checkout or the pump.
• Pick up bonus Visits through personalized challenges that give even more ways to earn, tailored to how they already shop.
• Track progress in real time in the Circle K app and pick from a mix of fuel discounts and in-store offers in the Rewards Center.
• Redeem on your own timeline, cashing in for a smaller reward, like a free Polar Pop® or snack at 5 Visits or a free coffee or Monster® energy drink at 10, or saving up for something bigger, like Red Bull® or Circle K Meat Snacks, all the way up to $1 off per gallon**.

For current members, the transition is seamless. Continue using the same phone number at checkout or the pump, or open the Circle K app, and start earning Visits right away.

“Every visit counts, and now every visit pays off,” said Rick Rasor, Vice President of Loyalty & Digital Experience at Circle K. “We've been listening to our members, and they told us loyalty programs shouldn't feel like one more thing to manage. That's why the redesigned Inner Circle rewards program is built around how they already shop, rewarding them for the stops they're already making while giving them an opportunity for even greater savings the more they visit and shop at Circle K. Whether it's a free coffee after a handful of visits or up to $1 off per gallon as Visits add up, members have more opportunities to earn rewards without changing a thing about their routine.”

Joining Inner Circle is free and easy. New members receive 25 cents off per gallon on their first five fill-ups after signing up, with savings starting from their very first visit. Customers can enroll in four ways:

• Text JOIN to 25050 to become a member and receive SMS offers***
• Download the Circle K app and create an account
• Join online at circlek.com
• Enter their mobile number at the pump or checkout to receive a text with a quick enrollment link
