The move is part of the company's larger goal to reduce waste by 50% by 2030, offering incentives to customers who bring their own cups.

  • Starbucks has expanded its reusable cup policy to include drive-thru and mobile orders, aiming to reduce waste.
  • Customers who bring their own cup will receive a 10-cent discount and members of the chain’s rewards program will receive 25 stars.
  • The company aims to reduce its waste by 50% by 2030 as part of a larger cultural shift towards reusables and away from single-use plastics.

  • The initiative is not available for delivery orders on third-party apps like DoorDash and Uber Eats.
