CardX Launches McDonald's Buy 1 Get 1 Free Promotion for 159 Baht

CardX, a credit card and personal loan provider under the SCBX group, has partnered with quick-service restaurant McDonald's to launch a special campaign exclusively for CardX and SCB WEALTH by CardX credit cardholders. Customers can receive a buy 1 get 1 free privilege when ordering a delicious set menu for only 159 Baht, discounted from the normal price of 233 to 359 Baht, and receive one free Mac fried chicken value set worth 79 to 109 Baht. This campaign is held at participating McDonald's branches from 1 October 2026 to 31 March 2027. This restaurant promotion aims to meet the dining lifestyle needs of the new generation looking for maximum value in every meal.

Elevating the Dining Experience with Value

Mr Panya Vechbanyongratana, Chief Business and Channel Officer of CardX, stated that this collaboration arose from studying customer spending behaviour data. The company found that spending in the restaurant category is a reality in consumers' daily lives. Therefore, CardX is committed to being a Financial Lifestyle Partner that helps fulfil positive experiences in every meal. Partnering with an accessible brand like McDonald's will help provide tangible value to customers. Offering benefits that align with spending behaviour will make credit cards more than just payment tools. Consumers will gain maximum benefit from their spending in every moment of their daily lives.

Conditions and Steps to Redeem

Credit cardholders wishing to claim the privilege can conveniently complete the transaction via the CardX app. Customers must scan the QR Code from the advertising signage in front of McDonald's stores or click to claim the privilege through company-designated channels. Following this, present the received QR Code or Barcode to the staff before making payment with a credit card. The discount privilege is valid for 30 minutes after claiming. There is a choice of 4 participating delicious set menus: Value Complete Set, Double Samurai Set, Double Mac Fish Set, and Mac Spicy Chicken Set. The free Mac fried chicken value set includes 1 piece of Mac fried chicken, 1 regular size French Fries, and 1 12-ounce glass of Coke.

Exceptions and Credit Card Usage Advice

Customers should check participating branches before claiming the privilege, as this promotion does not cover online ordering, home delivery services, Dessert Counters, and Mac Drive Thru services. Additionally, there are exceptions for certain branches, such as the PP Island branch, Haad Rin Koh Phangan branch, and all airport branches. The company has also emphasised its responsible spending policy, advising cardholders to spend only as necessary and repay in full on time to avoid a credit card interest burden at a rate of 16 percent per annum.

This news is of interest to office workers, students, and the general public who enjoy dining out. This campaign allows consumers to efficiently save on daytime meal expenses. Using credit cards to receive additional benefits is therefore another worthwhile alternative in the current economic climate, while also meeting the needs of those seeking a quick meal option at an affordable price.
