McDonalds plans, side by side
Every published tier in ascending order of price, with the number of features each one lists. An absence here means the record does not itemise it, not that the tier lacks it.
| Plan | Price | Features listed | Step up from the tier below |
|---|---|---|---|
| MyMcDonald's Rewards | Free | 3 | Entry tier |

What the product covers
The full McDonalds feature record, grouped as the catalogue groups it. This is the product as a whole; the record does not map every feature onto a specific tier.
Other
- Mobile order and pay
- MyMcDonald's Rewards
- App-exclusive deals
- Geofenced drive-thru timing
- Delivery ordering
- Order customisation and favourites
People bring McDonalds in for a customer wanting the best available deal price, since many discounts are app exclusive, skipping the counter or drive-thru queue by ordering ahead, accumulating rewards points toward free menu items through regular visits, ordering delivery through an integrated third party partner from inside the app. If that is not the job you are buying for, the alternatives to McDonalds are worth a look before you commit to a tier.
How that compares in Utilities
Too few utilities tools in this directory publish a starting price to quote a meaningful median, so the table below is a like-for-like list rather than a ranking.

Ratings are aggregated from third-party sources and imported with each catalogue entry, they are not reviews hosted on Softwr. How each figure is used is set out on the McDonalds badges page.
Before you pay for McDonalds
Three things this page cannot tell you, and all three change the bill. The record carries a price and a billing period but not the unit - per-seat and flat-rate pricing are indistinguishable in this data, so a five-person team may be looking at five times the figure above. It carries no annual rate, so any discount for paying yearly is not something this page can quote. And it carries no trial length.
What it can tell you is the shape of the ladder: a single tier at Free. Because there is a free tier, the cheapest way to answer the rest is to use it before paying anything.
McDonalds runs on ios, android, and is published by McDonald's Corporation of Chicago, Illinois, United States. The full record is on the McDonalds review, and the rest of the category is under best utilities tools.
