Denny’s® Rewards Program - Terms and Conditions



Effective: April 25, 2024


These Denny’s Rewards Program Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) apply to you, the individual consumer participant in the rewards program (“you” or “your”) and form a binding agreement between you and Denny’s, Inc. (doing business as Denny’s) that govern your participation in the Denny’s rewards program (“Program”). The Program offers participants the opportunity to enjoy special food and beverage offers. To join, you will need to create a Program account on www.dennys.com (our “Site”) or via the Denny’s mobile app (our “App”). Creating a Program account is free. Denny’s, Inc. (the provider of the Program) is referred to as “Denny’s,” “we,” “our” or “us” in these Terms. Individual Denny’s locations, which may be independently owned, are referred to as “participating locations” in the Program under these Terms and are not the provider of the Program. These Terms are specific to the program and supplement any other terms relating to your use of the Site or App.


PLEASE READ THESE TERMS CAREFULLY. YOUR PARTICIPATION IN THE PROGRAM IS SUBJECT TO THESE TERMS. YOU ARE DEEMED TO ACCEPT THESE TERMS WHEN YOU CREATE AN ACCOUNT WITH US OR OTHERWISE PARTICIPATE IN THE PROGRAM. THESE TERMS CONTAIN AN ARBITRATION CLAUSE, A CLASS ACTION WAIVER FROM YOU, A DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES BY US AND LIMITATIONS ON OUR LIABILITY.


Please note:

  • "Offers" means promotional offers at participating locations that may include a discount on food or beverages, free food, or such other "deals" as described in the individual offer. Offers may also include challenges or specific activities in which a user can engage to receive the "reward" described in the Offer. Offers may not be available in all locations. Offers may be limited by number available, where they can be used, and may expire according to their stated terms. Most offers will expire each month (or in such other time frame as we determine) and be replaced by additional, later offers. Each Program participant can see their available offers in "My Offers" when logged into their Program account on the Site or via the App. Users are responsible for all data or internet charges incurred to access the Program and their Offers online.

  • Some Offers are redeemable in person at participating locations and/or online (via the Site or App). See the specific terms for each Offer to understand how it is redeemable. Each offer has its own unique terms and conditions. Failure to comply with the Offer terms may result in the Offer being forfeit.

  • Offers to be redeemed at a participating location will include a QR code you will have 24 hours to use at the location to claim the Offer. If you do not use the QR code before it expires, you will need to log into our Program account again, reselect the offer, and receive a new QR code. 

  • When redeeming an Offer online, it will appear in your cart at check-out and you will need to select it to apply to your cart.

  • The terms associated with individual Offers and redeeming them on the Site or via the App form additional binding terms when you participate in the Program and are deemed to be part of these Terms. In the event of conflict between these terms and the Offer terms, the Offer terms will take priority.

  1. Program.

    • Who is Eligible to Participate. Individuals 18 or older with an active Program account in good standing are eligible participate in the Program.

    • How to See Offers. Any current Program account holder can see and use available Offers. You may have to select your preferred Denny’s location to see which Offers are available for that location. Not all locations participate in all Offers. Check under “My Offers” on the Site or via the App. We may also email you Offers from time to time. You are free to unsubscribe from promotional emails at any time within the email (from its unsubscribe link), but opting out of promotional emails does not limit us from communicating with you by email regarding your account and our Services on a transactional email basis. We may also text you Offers from time to time if you consented to receive Offers by text when you created your Program account or in your Program account settings. You may text STOP to an offer to stop receiving all texts from us.
    • How to Use Offers. Each Offer will have its own individual terms to redeem the Offer. For example, a minimum purchase may be required to use a dollars offer meal offer. Read them and follow them! That’s it! If you do not exercise an Offer before it expires, you will have forfeit the Offer. But don’t let that get you down – we expect to have new Offers later.
