When would it be better to buy a Summer Fun Pass in-store?
If you are heading to a participating Chuck E. Cheese immediately, it would be better to buy your Summer Fun Pass when you arrive in-store. When you buy online or through the App, your Pass benefits can take up to 4 hours to load into your Rewards member account, and we don’t want you to miss out on your special savings.
What are all of the ways I can purchase a Summer Fun Pass?

Do I need the Chuck E. Cheese App to use/redeem my Summer Fun Pass?
The App is the best and easiest way to get the most out of your Summer Fun Pass. You can see the Pass Rewards available, full details and scan them at the register to redeem. If you are unable to use the App, visit your favorite location and provide the cast member with the phone number you used to purchase your Summer Fun Pass and register your Rewards Account. Each Summer of Fun Pass Member will be required to present the App or identify using the phone number associated with their Rewards Account at the register to redeem each offer.
What if I do not see my benefits in my Mobile App?

Why did the Summer Fun Pass program change (from last year)?
- Thank you for your interest in our Summer Fun Pass! Our program has evolved this year to better meet our guests’ needs and put the savings potential in their hands.
- Each Pass includes an all-new Savings Pass, so guests can save (up to 40% with the Funnest Pass!) on all games, food and beverage purchases all summer long. This offers guests the maximum savings and flexibility. Need more play cards? Want to get a Pizza & Drinks Combo on your visit? Looking to treat yourself to Shark Cupcakes? The Savings Pass is your way to save.
- The Play Cards included with your Pass can now be used on separate visits as guests would like, as opposed to one per week, so there is NO limit to the fun you can have in one week.
- And, with new welcome gifts, updated weekly offers and exclusives, the new program is still an unbeatable value and the ultimate way to save on fun this summer.
- The birthday discount can be used on ANY party package this year, a change since last year.
