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 MyMacca’s Terms and Conditions. The McDonald’s Privacy Statement will also apply.
- In order to benefit from the prizes you also need to opt in (via the McDonald’s app) to the MyMacca’s Rewards program.
2. Duration of the Game
- The Game is scheduled to take place between 05:00:00 on 10th June 2026 and 23:59:59 on 20th July 2026 NZST (inclusive) on the McDonald’s app.

- Security: You are responsible for maintaining the security of your device and account login details.
4. Game Mechanics & Skill-Based Play
- Core Game: The 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 & MyMacca’s Point "Burn"
- Collection: Players can collect up to 42 unique McNugget Buddies (each, a “Buddy”).
- Missed Challenge: If a user misses a Daily Challenge, they may use (or “Burn”) 300 MyMacca’s points to unlock one (1) missed Buddy and its in-Game perk. A player may unlock multiple missed Buddies using MyMacca’s points, provided they have sufficient points available.
- Finality: If MyMacca’s points are used to unlock a missed Buddy, 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 (“Winning Reward”).
- Consolation: A consolation reward shall be issued after 3 unsuccessful attempts as further described in Addendum A (“Consolation Reward”)
- Limits: A maximum of one (1) Reward can be earned per user, per day.
- Fulfilment: Rewards are issued as digital coupons and added to the player’s MyMacca’s 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 the MyMacca’s terms and conditions.
