Macca’s Monopoly is running once again in 2025, with your chance to win some pretty cool prizes.
McDonalds Australia has announced a prize list that included a car, several awesome gift cards, free food deliveries for a year and more.
So what are the eligible food items? When the promotion is running, you don’t want to order something to find that it doesn’t come with any pieces.
Let’s take a look at the Maccas Monopoly menu items so you can make sure you’re getting the best chance to win every time you visit.
It’s important to check this carefully as things have changed for 2025 (and people aren’t too happy…)
The big change for 2025 – no more physical tickets
Up until 2024, Maccas Monopoly would give customers physical stickers/tokens attached to your food. People loved to peel them and see if they had won, and in recent years you could also then scan them for a second chance to win.
In 2025, that’s completely changed. Now, everything is done in the app. There’s nothing attached to the food anymore.
As long as you use the app when you order (either to place your order, or giving your app code to the person taking your order), and you order eligible items, you’ll automatically get digital tokens in your app.
A lot of people are upset and feel it’s less fun. But at least now you don’t need to worry about scanning codes manually, or keeping any prize-winning ones safe.
The food items with digital tokens
Not everything comes with tickets. Some notable items that are missing include bottled drinks, frozen drinks, wraps, sundaes and smaller burgers.
A lot of the breakfast menu is excluded from Macca’s Monopoly, though you can get cold and hot drinks, hotcakes and hash browns.
You could even get a McFlurry if you need an early morning sugar boost. And you can get a Big Brekkie burger, though via the app only.
Also, the McPlant continues to be missing from the list of items that comes with tickets, along with the McVeggie.
A criticism that’s been levied at McDonalds in the past is that it limits the options for vegetarian and vegan diners who want to take part, so it’s a shame to see that it hasn’t been fixed this year, especially as the McPlant is normally considered one of the ‘larger’ burger items on the menu.
It’s been an issue for a couple of years now and I thought 2024 would be the year it was resolved…but no, it wasn’t. 2025? Still no. I keep saying this every year… Maybe 2026?

The Best Items To Buy From Macca’s To Play Monopoly
You can work out the best items to buy from Macca’s by working out the price per ticket. This is a good idea if you’ve already got yourself a rare property, since you hopefully don’t have to spend a lot to get the common properties you need to claim your prize.
However, prices aren’t necessarily standard at every McDonalds restaurant in Australia.
Plus, if you’re ordering online, the prices are often inflated, so you might end up paying more.
Generally, the worst value items are the burgers – they typically cost the most, but you only get one token. The only items that cost more are the sharer boxes of McNuggets but at least with those, you get more than one token.
The McDonalds order screen show you how many Monopoly tickets you can expect to get with each item.
The best value for tickets is usually a McFlurry or a large fries, followed by large soft drinks.
The Bottom Line
It’s important to remember that not everything on the menu comes with tokens during Macca’s Monopoly. Most drinks do, and fries as well, but if you want the most cards then you’ll need to choose your main item carefully.
But if you want the best value, you’ll want a large fries and a McFlurry to follow up with – those give you the best pieces per price and they don’t cost a lot in total either.
And be careful with the new rules for 2025 – make sure you order your food items via the app/for delivery!
