McDonald’s FIFA World Cup™ 2026 In-App Game Malta Terms and Conditions (the “Rules”)
1. Introduction & Acceptance
- These Rules govern your participation in the FIFA World Cup™ 2026 gaming experience (the “Game”) within the McDonald’s App.
- Participation in the Game requires prior acceptance within the app of these Rules. These Rules are in addition to the standard McDonald’s App Terms and Conditions. McDonald’s Privacy Statement shall also apply.
- In order to benefit from the prizes you also need to opt in (via the McDonald’s app) to the MyMcDonald’s loyalty program.
2. Duration of the Game
- The Game is scheduled to take place between 07:00:00 on 9th June 2026 and 23:59:59 on 19th July 2026 GMT+2 (inclusive) on McDonald’s app.
3. Eligibility & Account Security
- Account Requirement: Participation is strictly limited to users with a registered and active McDonald’s account.
- One Account Rule: Participation is limited to one (1) account per person; attempts to use multiple accounts for the same user may lead to disqualification.
- Security: You are responsible for maintaining the security of your device and account login details.
4. Game Mechanics & Skill-Based Play
- Core Game: This game is skill-based. This in‑app game is a skill‑based shooting gallery in which players use touch controls to launch virtual footballs at targets to beat a designated score. The required score increases as players meet the daily objective.
- Daily Challenges: Four rotating minigames unlock perks to assist in the core game: Keepy Uppy, Where’s Grimace?, Stadium Delivery, and Halftime Chef. These minigames will have varying objectives from day to day and allow you to unlock upgrades for the core game.
- No Chance: Game outcomes are determined solely by player skill (timing, direction, strength, using the participant’s touch control on their device). The Game does not utilize a Random Number Generator (RNG).
5. McNugget Buddies & Loyalty Point “Burn”
- Collection: Players can collect up to 42 unique McNugget Buddies.
- Missed Days: If a user misses a Daily Challenge, they may burn MyMcDonald’s loyalty points (as set out in Addendum B) to unlock the missed Buddy and its in-game perk.
- Finality: Once points are burned, the transaction is final and cannot be reversed or refunded.
6. Rewards
- Winner’s Choice: If you beat the designated score, you will have the choice to select between two (2) daily winning rewards, as further described in Addendum A.
- Limits: A maximum of one (1) Rewards can be earned per user, per day.
- Fulfilment: Rewards are issued as digital coupons and added to the player’s loyalty account. Redemption of the digital coupons is subject to serving times and availability. Rewards may not be exchanged, in whole or in part, for any cash or other alternative and Rewards are not transferable, divisible or permitted to be sold, resold or gifted. All Rewards will expire if unredeemed in accordance with loyalty terms as stated in the McDonald’s App terms and conditions.
7. Privacy
- The participants data will be held and managed in accordance with the Promoter’s Privacy Statement.
8. Accessibility & Technical Disclaimers
- Display: The game is optimized for portrait mode; non-standard aspect ratios (e.g., foldables) will result in a letterboxed display.
- Functionality: The experience is color-blind friendly and sound is optional.
- Compatibility: Due to high-speed reactive mechanics, the game does not support screen readers or voice-control software.
- Liability: McDonald’s is not responsible for technical malfunctions or internet interruptions impacting gameplay or reward issuance.

You acknowledge and agree that you have the right to use the Game solely for the purposes of the proper participation in accordance with the Rules.
- Any Reward allocated within the Game will be invalid and void for all purposes if, in the reasonable opinion of the Promoter, it: (a) has been generated or allocated as a result of any technical error, malfunction or system failure; (b) is corrupted, duplicated or otherwise not validly issued within the Game; (c) has been obtained through fraudulent, automated, or unauthorised activity, including any attempt to manipulate gameplay, outcomes; or the operation of the Game, or through the manipulation of device settings, software or network conditions; (d) has been obtained in breach of these Rules.
