Pick a location and order.

It’s time to place your order! Select a location for your beverage to be made and create your drink of choice. You can select an available option and customize it according to your preference, or make your own. This applies to food and pastries as well. It will be ready when you get there.

Pay for said order.

Starbucks® for Android lets you pay before you even enter the store. Simply enter your card information and make your purchase beforehand. Starbucks Gold Card members can redeem points and rewards for their purchases on this app, and you can load gift cards onto the app as well. If paying before isn’t an option, Starbucks will let you scan an app’s barcode at the counter upon arrival, or pay your usual way.

Time to go in and pick up your drink!

Your order will be waiting for you in the designated waiting area. Tell your barista you’re there for your mobile order and enjoy! As an added bonus, the app will give you a playlist of the music at that Starbucks location, should there be any wait.
