What is McDonald's Monopoly?

If you're a lover of all things McDonald's, then you'll love McDonald's Monopoly.

The fast-food chain brought this popular sales promotion to customers in 2005, and it works in a similar way as the classic Monopoly board game.

Selected items on the menu will come with a sticker which customers can peel off - these are the game pieces.

Simply by peeling off these game pieces, customers can instantly win free food items and big prizes - such as gift cards and popular tech items.

You can also collect the property pieces of the same colour - just like you do when playing the board game, to be in with a chance of winning an even bigger prize.

Customers can claim their big wins via the McDonald's app or online.

When does McDonald's Monopoly 2022 start?

The official start date for the 2022 McDonald's Monopoly has been announced - and fans will be pleased to know they won't have to wait much longer.

Stores nationwide will be starting the promotion on September 7, 2022.

How long is McDonald's Monopoly 2022 on for?

The end date for McDonald's Monopoly 2022 has not yet been announced.

However, the promotion has always run for six weeks in the past.

Is there an age limit to claim a prize?

You must be over 16-years-old to claim a prize and 18 in some cases.

An 11-year-old McDonald's fan found this out in 2019.

Amber Medd and her friend had visited the fast-food chain's Willerby, Yorkshire, branch alone and ordered adult meals - but was too young to claim her free chips that she won in the game.

Younger players who can't claim the prize because they're not old enough can nominate a parent or guardian to collect it on their behalf.
