  • B. In-Store Game. Obtain a Game Piece or Guaranteed Bonus Game Piece and carefully peel back each Game Stamp and Guaranteed Bonus Game Stamp (as applicable) to determine if it reveals an instant win prize, a MONOPOLY property or a Guaranteed Bonus.
    • (i) Instant Win. If a Game Stamp reveals a prize identified in these Official Rules as an Instant Win prize (an “Instant Win Game Stamp“), then the participant is the potential winner of that prize, subject to verification of the Instant Win Game Stamp and the participant’s compliance with these Official Rules. See Rule 9 “HOW TO REDEEM/DEADLINES”.
    • (ii) Collect & Win.

The property name and stamp number of the Collect & Win Game Stamps that must be collected in order to form a Winning Combination (each, a “Winning Combination“) can be found on the Game Board, on individual Collect & Win Game Stamps, and in Rule 5B. If a participant collects a Winning Combination, such participant is the potential winner of the corresponding prize identified in these Official Rules, subject to verification of the Collect & Win Game Stamps and the participant’s compliance with these Official Rules.

See Rule 5C for Guaranteed Bonus Prize descriptions and Guaranteed Bonus Offer descriptions and Rule 8 for Prize Supplier Terms and Conditions.
  • C. Online Game. Each MONOPOLY Game Stamp (excluding Guaranteed Bonus Game Stamps) is printed with a unique 10-digit code (each, a “Code“) and is valid for one play in the Online Game. Once registered, by following the directions on the Website, participants have access to a virtual MONOPOLY Game Board where they can select a MONOPOLY game token and roll the virtual dice for the chance to win. All participants start the game on GO. To play Online you must have a valid Code and a valid e-mail address. There are two ways to play the Online Game: (1) at the official Website (PlayatMcD.com) and (2) using a text-capable mobile device. Via the Website: Access PlayatMcD.com. You will be required to enter a valid Code (or FREE Code) followed by your e-mail address and birth date. Then complete the registration fields: first and last name; e-mail address; home phone number; zip code; enter a password and confirm it; enter the alpha-numeric security cipher shown; and you can opt in for text play by following the instructions, with the mobile device phone number that you will use. During registration you can also select ‘remember me’ so when you return, you will only need to input a valid Code or FREE Code and password. If you’re playing on a public computer, don’t check ‘remember me’ and be sure to sign off the computer when you are finished. You will also be required to acknowledge that you have read and agreed to the Official Rules A valid Code must be typed into the Code input field exactly as it appears on your Game Stamp or it will not be accepted. A Code is only valid for one submission (except for FREE Codes which can be used by more than one player). When you click on the submit button, and when your Code submission is received and recorded by the Promotion computer, you will receive one Online Game play. To Play By Text Message: Using your text-capable mobile device’s keypad, text the Code on your Game Stamp to Short Code 96363 (the “Short Code“). Then follow prompts to submit your 4-digit birth year and agree to the Official Rules. When your Code is received and recorded by the Promotion computer you will receive one Online Game play. Text message participants will receive their play result and a 5-digit Personal Identification Number (“PIN”). (You enter the PIN to tie your mobile device phone number to your virtual MONOPOLY Game Board if you haven’t already. The PIN can be entered in one of three ways: (a) on the page that appears during registration if you select mobile play; (b) in the field provided in your “My Monopoly Account” and (c) in the window that appears to remind you to tie your virtual MONOPOLY Game Board to your mobile device phone number online.) Once a text message participant who hasn’t registered at the Website has submitted eight (8) Codes by text message, or has received a text message advising that the participant is a potential prize winner (whichever comes first) the participant must access the Website, and complete the online registration including their PIN. This will assure that your Online Game play at the Website and by text are recorded using the same My Monopoly Account. When you play by text message your mobile device’s phone number will automatically be recorded by the Promotion computer. If you change your mobile device phone number you must update it by following the online directions to access your My Monopoly Account to change your mobile device phone number. You will also receive a new PIN and you will be required to tie the new mobile device phone number to your virtual MONOPOLY Game Board within eight (8) plays if you play on it prior to changing it in your My Monopoly Account section. A mobile device phone number may only be changed once. Neither Sponsor, nor any other entity or person will be responsible for your failure to keep your mobile device phone number current. You can opt-out of mobile device play at any time by texting the word STOP to 96363. Opting out of text message play will have no effect on your ability to participate or win, and you can continue to play online. By playing by text message you are agreeing to receive text messages from the Sponsor related to the Online Game. YOUR WIRELESS PLAN’S TEXT MESSAGING CHARGES APPLY. Online And Text Message Limitations: Limit one registration/sign-up/My Monopoly Account per person and/or e-mail address and/or mobile device phone number. Any participant who attempts to secure more than one registration by using different names, addresses, e-mail addresses or mobile device phone numbers, or uses any device or artifice to circumvent these Official Rules may be disqualified and ALL of their online plays including winning plays will be forfeited. Limit ten (10) Codes per day, inclusive of all Online Game entry methods. If a participant’s plays exceed the daily play limit on any day for any reason whatsoever, the plays will be recorded on that day and the number of plays over the limit will be deducted from the next day(s) play limit. FREE Codes. A FREE Code allows Online Game participants to register and collect one property, but will not trigger a win. A FREE Code is valid during Pre-Promotion Period and for the duration of the Online Game. FREE Codes can be used only once per person and/or e-mail address/My Monopoly Account/mobile device phone number, and will not count against daily play limits. However, FREE Codes can be used by multiple participants. A participant will be entitled to roll the virtual dice once for every valid Code that is received and recorded by the Promotion computer. Upon rolling the virtual dice, the participant’s game token will automatically move the corresponding number of spaces. A participant can elect to play via “Quick Code Entry” which allows a participant to enter a valid Code and see the play result without viewing the Board. My Monopoly Account: When you register online a My Monopoly Account will be created for you. The Account will contain information about your online play activity record, for example, but not limited to: the Codes that you have played; the Collect & Win properties you have accumulated; the prizes for which you are a potential winner; and the prizes you have won. The preferences you selected when you registered, and your mobile device phone number (if you choose to play via text on your mobile phone) will also be maintained in your Account. You can access your My Monopoly Account by clicking on the log-in link on the Website landing page and inputting your e-mail address and password. When you view your My Monopoly Account page by following the directions, you will be able to change your personal preferences and mobile device phone number, but you will not be able to change your play activity record. While reasonable efforts will be made to record, maintain and keep current the information in your My Monopoly Account, due to technical or other errors or failures the information may not always be current and accurate; and there will be no responsibility or liability for any such information. Passwords: You are solely responsible for the security of your e-mail address and password. You should take precautions to keep your password private to prevent unauthorized use. Neither Sponsor nor any other person or entity will be responsible for any losses, damages or consequences you may suffer due to careless or unauthorized use of your password.
  • The Online Game consists of the following components:
    • (i) Online Collect & Win. If a participant’s game token moves to one of the MONOPOLY properties on the virtual MONOPOLY Game Board, the token will appear on the current location and will be stored in the participant’s registration file and reflected in the participant’s My Monopoly Account. If a participant collects all the properties required for an Online Winning Combination, a message will announce that the participant is a potential winner of an Online Collect & Win Prize (subject to verification of both the Game Stamps whose Codes completed the Online Winning Combination and the participant’s compliance with these Official Rules), and an e-mail will be sent with redemption instructions that the participant must follow to claim the prize. Rule 6B lists the virtual MONOPOLY property names that correspond to each Online Winning Combination. In-Store Game Collect & Win Game Stamps cannot be combined with Online Game MONOPOLY properties and/or vice versa.
    • (ii) Online Instant Win – GO, Community Chest, Chance and Free Parking
      If a participant’s game token moves to GO, Chance, Community Chest, or Free Parking, a message will announce that the participant is a potential winner of the prize shown (subject to verification of both the Game Stamp whose Code triggered the winning roll and the participant’s compliance with these Official Rules) and an e-mail will be sent with redemption instructions that the participant must follow to claim the prize.
