## Story

Pella, IA - Scooter’s Coffee, best known for its drive-thru, specialty coffee, and baked-from-scratch pastries, added a new location at 2010 Washington Street, Pella, Iowa. To celebrate, the drive-thru location will be hosting a Grand Opening on Friday, July 23, where customers can earn 50 bonus Smiles when they pay with the Scooter’s mobile app!

With the app, customers earn 3 “Smiles” for every dollar spent, and once they reach 180 Smiles, they earn a free drink. All customers start in the Scooter Doodle status level, with perks that include a free drink on their birthday and surprise rewards, exclusive to the mobile app only. After earning 500 Smiles, customers move into the Caramelicious® status level with additional perks.

To pay with the app, customers simply need to link a credit card and tap “Pay in Stores” from the home screen. Then, if they choose to tip, they can select a custom amount or percentage prior to scanning their app. Customers also have the option to pay with cash or a gift card and still earn loyalty through the app by using the “Scan to Earn Loyalty” Only QR code.

The drive-thru location is owned and operated by Stan Eilers. “The city of Pella has more than exceeded our expectations,” said Eilers. “We are so grateful for a community that embraces and supports local, as we have had such an amazing outpouring of support from our local businesses and patrons of Scooter’s Coffee.”

Scooter’s Coffee is a drive-thru franchise that has been serving world-class coffee for more than 20 years and has over 300 locations in 20 states across the nation. Its signature drink is the Caramelicious®, and the menu features an array of specialty espresso beverages, single-origin coffee, fruit smoothies, Red Bull Infusions, Cold Brew, baked-from-scratch pastries, and savory breakfast options. Scooter’s also recently released its first-ever ready-to-drink canned flavored lattes!
