How can I earn points?

Well, first you come in and dine or enjoy a coffee, drink and snack at Joe's Garage, then when you are settling your bill you can:

  • Scan your App’s “Earn” QR code at the register - be sure to let your host know you wish to earn points. OR

  • Scan your barcode receipt with your App within 3 days of dining.

Will I earn points from items that are paid for with App rewards or App Joe's Garage dollars?

No - you will only earn points from items you pay cash for. When a reward is used on a transaction, you will earn points on the remainder that is paid in cash.

For example, if you have a bill of $100 with a $5 voucher applied, bringing the payable total to $95, you will earn 95 points.

If I split a payment for a transaction, will I still earn points off the parts I don’t pay for?

No, you only earn points for what you directly pay for.

Can I earn points for gift card spend?

Yes, you sure can however not with Joe's Garage Directors or Community vouchers. You won’t receive points when you purchase a gift card, the points are earned when the gift card is spent in-store.

What happens when I hit 100 points?

Your point balance will be reset to zero, and you will be gifted $5 Joe's Garage Dollars.

Can I scan the same barcode twice to earn double points?

Sorry, no - once a barcode has been used to earn points, it is now null and void. The App will reject the barcode if scanned twice.

How do I use/redeem a reward?

When you are paying for your meal, be sure to tell your host you want to use a reward, then:

  • Find the reward you wish to use on your App

  • Press the Redeem button, which will generate a unique code on your App

  • Present this code to your host who will either scan the QR code or input your redemption number.

  • If your transaction meets the reward terms and conditions, the total amount for the reward will be deducted from your final bill.

Can I gift people my Joe's Garage Dollars?

Not exactly. If you want to dine with them and pay for their meal or coffee, go ahead! But you can’t transfer dollars from one account to another.

Why am I getting notifications from a Joe's Garage store that isn't my ‘favourite’ location?

Sometimes you may get notifications if you have visited another Joe's Garage, have this store set as your favorite Joe's Garage or you are nearby.

Why isn’t there a barcode on my receipt?

The staff member may have given you the Table Summary rather than a transaction invoice. Click ‘Need Help?’ within the Regular Joe app and send an image of your receipt to Regular Joe support who will determine eligibility and can process these receipts for you.

If you are paying using an account in store, or using physical vouchers to pay your bill, there will be no barcode as these transactions are ineligible to earn points.

Why won’t my barcode scan?

There are a few of reasons a barcode may not scan or no longer be valid:

Barcodes are only valid for 72 hours from the point the transaction took place. If you are trying to earn points from an expired barcode, click ‘Need Help?’ within Regular Joe and send an image of your receipt to our support team. They will determine eligibility and can process these receipts for you.

There may be an internet connection error, try again soon. If the barcode expires after 72 hours and you have still not received your points, click ‘Need Help?’ within the Regular Joe app and send the support team an image of your receipt. They will determine eligibility and can process the receipt for you.

There is a limit of six receipts that can be scanned within three hours. This limit is generated from the time the transaction took place and is not based on the time you are scanning the receipt. If you believe you are eligible to earn points from extra receipts in this time, click ‘Need Help?’ within Regular Joe and send the support team an image of the receipt. They will determine eligibility and can process these receipts for you.

Can I earn or redeem points via Uber Eats, Deliver Easy or Online Orders?

No, unfortunately at this stage, loyalty points are not able to be earned or redeemed on Uber Eats, Deliver Easy, online ordering or other third party providers.
