If you’re lucky enough to live in Australia and enjoy a McDonalds meal, then you might be the lucky winner of some incredible prizes including cars, home appliances, gift cards worth thousands of dollars and a whole lot more – with a total prize value of over $753 million!

Whether you want to know more about the prizes that are available, the eligible items on the menu, the rare pieces you need to collect or how the app works, this guide will tell you everything you need to know.

Macca’s Monopoly start and end dates

The Macca’s Monopoly promotion starts on 4th September 2024 at one minute past midnight (Sydney time).

It then ends on the 22nd October 2024, which is the deadline for registering your tickets on the app. Prizes are eligible to be claimed until 27th October 2024.

So after 22nd October, you aren’t able to buy any items from McDonalds that have stickers, but you do have a few more days to register them on the MyMacca’s app.

Any prizes that aren’t claimed by that date that are worth $200 or more will go into a Second Chance Draw. You gain entries for the draw every time you scan a token in the app. This draw is made on 5th December 2024.

And once that draw is made, if any prizes still aren’t claimed by 1st March 2025, then another Unclaimed Prizes Draw will take place on 6th March 2025. So the promotion could end up rumbling on for almost seven months if prizes aren’t claimed.

How to get tickets

You get Macca’s Monopoly tickets by ordering eligible items from the menu. They’ll come attached to the box or cup containing your food – just peel them off to see what you have won.

Some of the tickets are Chance cards – these need to be scanned into the app and will either let you collect a property or win a prize, either food or a non-food item.

Chance cards are also earned on the MyMacca’s app, and can be awarded randomly, or when you redeem a MyMacca’s Reward using your points.

Important note: For 2024 there are some new rules for anyone playing in Western Australia or Tasmania – you only get tickets for orders made via the Maccas app. If you’re playing anywhere else in Australia, you can still get tickets for food purchased in restaurants.

You can’t buy Maccas tickets (so don’t try to)

According to the terms and conditions of Macca’s Monopoly, you aren’t allowed to sell or trade Monopoly tickets to anyone else. It is possible to find tickets for sale, often on eBay, but be careful – tickets already registered on the MyMacca’s app are worthless to anyone else.

McDonalds tries to discourage the sale of pieces, which is why they can now only be claimed through the MyMacca’s app. The fact that all tokens must be registered is a deterrent, because you take a huge risk buying them when the seller might already have registered the code.

You have to keep any Monopoly pieces that you wish to make a claim with, even if you have registered them on the app. You may be asked to provide the winning tickets alongside your claim as validation, so make sure you keep them safe.

Not all tokens are physical – you may win digital properties through the app. Obviously, for these, you won’t have a physical ticket, but as long as you keep the hard copies of any that you do have, you should be fine. You can make prize claims using a mix of both physical properties and pieces won digitally.

Maccas Monopoly Prizes

There are millions of prizes to be won as part of McDonalds Monopoly each year. There are 9 different prizes to be won through Collect & Win – one for each set of properties, including the stations. And there are many more that are available as an Instant Win.

The top prize in 2024 is an Isuzu MU-X LS-T SUV. There are three of these up for grabs – one in the Collect & Win side of the game, and another two available as an Instant Win.

Within the Instant Win prizes, most are either single items, prize bundles or gift vouchers. There’s a list of food prizes too, and also some prizes that are discount codes, offering money off at certain retailers but requiring you to spend a minimum amount to qualify.

How to play Macca’s Monopoly

In order to play Macca’s Monopoly, you’ll need to download the MyMacca’s app and set up an account. This is where you can redeem your prizes and collect your properties, tracking how far you have to go until you win.

Of course, you can only play while the promotion is running. You won’t see anything about Maccas Monopoly in the app during the rest of the year.

Then, every time you order an eligible item from the menu, you’ll be able to collect pieces. These pieces will take one of three forms:

1. Instant Win

If you pull an Instant Win card then you win the prize on the token. You can register it in the app, but make sure you keep the piece safe as you’ll need that to claim as well. These can range from a small fries all the way up to a car.

2. Chance Cards

Chance cards are like bonus cards – as you enter the code for them on the app, you’ll then either receive a property card, or an instant win. These digital pieces work exactly the same as the physical stickers you’ve pulled, and you can mix and match between them to create a set.

3. Collect to Win

The third type of token will be a property – either one of the coloured pieces from the game board, or a rail station. If you collect the whole set then you win the prize for that set.

Eligible food items

Not every item of food on the Macca’s menu is eligible for the promotion. If you want to take part, make sure you find out which items include pieces.

It’s a little more confusing now for 2024 as well, as some items will only include tickets if you order via the Maccas app or if you use the MyMaccas rewards code.

Rare Macca’s Monopoly pieces

There are not equal numbers of each property for the Collect & Win game in Macca’s Monopoly 2024. Instead, some of the properties are considered to be rare pieces. There are only as many of these as there are prizes for that colour group, so they are exceptionally rare.

The rare Monopoly pieces for 2024 include Park Lane, Regent Street, Piccadilly, Fleet Street, Marlborough Street, Whitehall, Euston Road, Old Kent Road and Fenchurch St Station.

How to redeem your prizes

When it comes to how to claim a prize, everything is a lot easier now through the MyMacca’s app. Once you’ve collected the tokens you need to win a prize, just hit the ‘Redeem’ button in the Macca’s Monopoly section of the app and follow the instructions.

Some higher-tier prizes will require you to provide the physical tickets as proof, otherwise, your prize claim won’t be validated. So make sure you retain all pieces until you claim.

If you get a food Instant Win, you don’t need to add this to the app, you can just exchange it in store. If you want to use it for a mobile pay order then you will need to register it in the app.

Redeeming multiple prizes is usually fine, except for food wins

If you have won multiple McDonalds prizes, either through Collect & Win or Instant Win, you can claim them all. The only exception is where you have won multiple food prizes – it’s one food prize per person, per visit. You can claim them all, but not at once.

But yes, there is nothing stopping you from claiming more than one prize with Macca’s Monopoly if you’re very lucky.

People do win the big prizes!

Every year there are a lot of winners in the Monopoly Maccas game. The prizes do get given away, even if they have to make it to the Second Chance Draw that happens a few months after the promotion closes.

In 2019, a 14-year-old boy from Shepparton won the major prize of a Suzuki Swift, which he had to share with his parents until he was legally old enough to drive it himself.

And in 2021, a 26-year-old revealed that he dropped his food on the ground when he found out he’d won a $10,000 gift card.

So there are winners every year – why won’t it be you?
