Dispensary rewards have matured into something closer to airline miles than punch cards—points balances, app-only deals, member pricing, and rewards that can be applied online or in-store depending on the retailer. The best rewards apps share a few shopper-friendly traits: quick enrollment, clear point value, easy redemption at checkout, and a reliable way to track balances without needing to call the store.
Here are the standout options shoppers can download (or access) and start using immediately.
Trulieve App + Trulieve Rewards (best for quick “download and earn” value)
Trulieve’s ecosystem is built to get customers earning quickly, pairing its rewards program with an app experience that encourages immediate sign-in and bonus incentives. Trulieve has promoted app downloads tied to bonus points for logging in or creating a rewards account, which is exactly the kind of “instant gratification” that keeps casual shoppers engaged.
Why it’s strong: fast sign-up, clear rewards framing, and app-first nudges that make joining feel worthwhile from day one.
Curaleaf App + Curaleaf Rewards (best for multi-state shoppers in one brand)
Curaleaf’s app positions itself as a hub for shopping, ordering, deals—and importantly—tracking rewards points and redemptions in one place. For customers who bounce between locations (or travel), brand consistency matters; Curaleaf has also communicated rewards availability across its retail footprint.
Why it’s strong: a single app for browsing, ordering, and keeping an eye on points without digging through emails.
RISE Rewards (best for straightforward “$1 = 1 point” simplicity)
RISE Rewards keeps the pitch simple: earn points per dollar and unlock cash-back style redemptions after hitting thresholds. The program messaging also emphasizes that purchases count whether they’re made online or on-site—an underrated detail for modern shoppers.
Why it’s strong: easy-to-understand value, and fewer “mystery rules” compared with more complicated tier systems.
AYR Dispensaries app + loyalty program (best for promos and wallet-style tracking)
AYR promotes app-based sign-up and tracking, with some state programs publishing clear redemption ladders (e.g., points converting to dollars off). Customers who like push notifications for personalized discounts and reminders tend to benefit most from this style of app.
Why it’s strong: points tracking plus deal delivery, with straightforward redemption examples.
“Wallet” apps powered by Springbig and Alpine IQ (best when your local shop uses them)
Not every dispensary builds its own tech—many use loyalty platforms. Springbig offers a customer-facing wallet that lets members view points and redeem offers, sometimes integrating ordering into the same experience. Alpine IQ similarly supports points-based rewards and dispensary-branded app experiences.
Why it’s strong: if your favorite local dispensary runs on one of these platforms, you often get a clean rewards dashboard and faster access to member-only offers.
Dutchie-powered loyalty (best for smooth redemption at checkout)
Dutchie is widely used on the retail side, and many dispensaries configure loyalty programs where points are redeemed for cash value or preset discounts. This often creates a consistent experience across online ordering and in-store checkout.
Why it’s strong: redemption tends to feel built in at the register—reducing friction when it’s time to apply points.
Bottom line: brand apps like Trulieve, Curaleaf, RISE, and AYR are the fastest path for shoppers who already have a favorite chain. Platform-based wallets shine when a local dispensary uses them well. And Dutchie-backed loyalty often wins on checkout simplicity—where rewards matter most.
