Chipotle's best-known way to save is its rewards program in the app and on the website, where you earn points on eligible orders and redeem them for rewards. Beyond that, offers such as free delivery periods, birthday perks and limited-time promotions appear from time to time. They change often, so we do not list specific offers here. Check the app's offers section before you order to see what is active for you.
Ways to save
Rewards, app offers when available, and ordering habits that keep the total lower.

We do not publish coupon codes or promise any specific offer. Promotions are set by Chipotle, vary by location and time, and may end without notice. Always confirm the terms in the app at checkout.
How the rewards program generally works
The details change, so use this section for the general idea and confirm the current rules inside the app. In broad terms, the program works like this:
- You create a free account in the app or on the website and sign in when you order.
- You earn points on eligible purchases, usually based on the amount you spend. Which orders qualify, such as in-app, in-restaurant with a scan, or delivery, depends on the current terms.
- Points add up to reward tiers. When you reach a threshold, you can redeem for a reward such as a free entree, side or drink, subject to the rules.
- Rewards may expire. Points and rewards usually have time limits, so look at the expiry dates.
- Special bonuses can appear. These might include a birthday reward or bonus points on certain days when available.
Because the program is run by Chipotle, the exact names, thresholds and redemption rules are theirs to set. We would rather point you to the source than risk giving you an outdated detail.
Typical kinds of offers
The types of promotions we see mentioned from time to time fall into a few buckets. None is guaranteed.
- Delivery promotions. Free or reduced delivery fees during a promotional period, often through the Chipotle app or a delivery partner.
- App-exclusive offers. A discount or bonus for ordering through the app or website during a set window.
- Email and text offers. Members who opt in to messages may get targeted offers. Opting in is your choice, and you can opt out.
- Birthday perks. Some programs give a birthday reward when you have a date of birth on file, if available.
- New member offers. A first-order bonus appears occasionally for new accounts.
- Seasonal or limited-time promotions. Linked to holidays, sports events or new menu items.
- Group and catering offers. Sometimes available for larger orders. See the catering guide.
If an offer you read about is not in your app, it may be region-specific, expired or only for selected members.
How to find current offers
- Open the app and look for an "Offers" or "Rewards" tab.
- Check your email inbox and promotions tab for messages you have opted in to.
- Look at the checkout screen. Applicable discounts are often applied or offered there.
- Check the delivery app you use, since those platforms run their own promotions.
- Visit Chipotle's own website and social channels for official announcements.
Be careful of third-party sites that promise "free burrito" codes, especially those that ask for personal information or payment details. Unofficial coupon codes are rarely valid, and some pages are scams. If an offer sounds too good to be true, check the app first.
Ways to save that are always available
You do not need a promotion to spend less. These habits work at nearly every restaurant:
- Order a bowl without a burrito tortilla if you want a smaller meal, since it removes a high-calorie item. See the bowl guide.
- Choose a lower-priced protein. Chicken and veggie are generally at the lower end of the price range. See the price tables.
- Skip the extras that cost more, such as guacamole, queso, double protein, chips and bottled drinks, or add only the one you care about most.
- Drink water. It is usually free at the counter. See the drinks guide.
- Split a meal or a side. A chips and guacamole side can serve two people.
- Order directly rather than through delivery apps, which may add fees and menu markups.
- Use leftovers. A large burrito or bowl may be two meals for some people.
- Check your total in the price calculator before you go, so there are no surprises.
Delivery fees and markups
Delivery usually includes service fees, delivery fees and sometimes higher menu prices than in the restaurant. The cost differs between platforms and times of day. If you order delivery often, compare the total at checkout across the available options, including picking up in person or through the Chipotlane where available. See how to order for the pros and cons of each channel.
Group orders and catering
When you are feeding more than a few people, there may be a better way to order than separate meals. Group ordering tools in the app let each person add their own meal to one order and pay together or separately. Catering is designed for larger events, and an offer may apply from time to time. Compare totals before deciding.
Student, military and other discounts
Some restaurants and programs may offer discounts for certain groups, and we cannot confirm any of them. Ask at your local restaurant or check the app. Do not assume a discount exists, and do not show up expecting one.
Gift cards
Gift cards are sold in restaurants and online, and can be a convenient way to pay or to give a meal. Check the balance and terms through the official channels, and be careful with resale sites. Treat gift card numbers like cash.
Protect yourself from coupon scams
- Offers that ask you to share a password or card number outside the official app are suspicious.
- Links in text messages from unknown senders should not be opened.
- Real offers appear in your Chipotle account or are announced on official channels.
- If you are unsure, go to the official site directly, instead of following a link.
