New Starbucks Perks in the UK!

Good news! Our mobile payment program is now available to our friends in the UK through the official iPhone application from Starbucks!

This new functionality is a great addition to all the other services already available on the Starbucks for iPhone app in the UK. The app can also  be used to manage your Starbucks Card account, reload your card, transfer balances between cards, find nearby stores and explore Starbucks products and offers.

But there’s more. We’ve also launched the My Starbucks Rewards program in the UK to provide our friends there with benefits similar to those offered in the U.S. and Canada.

If you have friends or family in the UK like I do, be sure to drop them a note and let them know that they can now benefit from My Starbucks Rewards and use the Starbucks for iPhone app for quick and convenient mobile payment!

But this is application is not fully operated in Canada.  It is only available through Apple Iphone users and not droid users.  I was really disappointed and not happy at all when I  found out it is not available through droid in Canada.  I just recently got the android phone over the holiday and I was really looking forward into using the app, and finding that it is not available and only available for U.S. partners.  The only and main reason for me to get an android phone is to use this mobile payment app.

Can I use my card/or iPhone application (the one I currently have here in the usa ) in the UK?

I would love to be able to use my Starbucks Card (and the app on my iPhone) in ANY country outside of the usa. Also, I would like to be able to purchase cards here in the usa and SEND them to my overseas friends as gifts
