Where to Buy Auntie Anne’s Gift Cards: Deals, Rewards & Miles

Auntie Anne's gift cards are GoTo Foods "Mix It Up" cards, so one card spends at Auntie Anne's plus six sibling brands across more than 3,800 U.S. locations. They never expire, carry no fees, and come in physical or digital form. The ways to buy them differ on speed, denomination, and whether you earn anything back on the purchase. Here's how each one works.

What an Auntie Anne's gift card gets you

This is the GoTo Foods "Mix It Up" card, so the same Auntie Anne's gift card also spends at Carvel, Cinnabon, Jamba, McAlister's Deli, Moe's Southwest Grill, and Schlotzsky's — over 3,800 combined U.S. locations. There are no activation, dormancy, or per-purchase fees, and the balance never gets whittled down by inactivity charges. It works for both pretzels at the food court and a full meal at McAlister's.

two formats:

  • Physical card: Sold at Auntie Anne's locations and gift-card racks. Loadable from $5 to $200.
  • E-gift card: Emailed within minutes, redeemable in store by barcode or for mobile-app ordering. $5 to $200 via the brand; $5 to $200 via Dyme. Can be saved in the Auntie Anne's app.

You can apply a gift card alongside a Pretzel Perks reward in the same order, and combine multiple gift cards toward one larger purchase at the register.

Can I get a Auntie Anne's gift card at a discount?

Yes, but not through Dyme. Dyme sells Auntie Anne's e-gift cards at face value; the value-add is Dyme Miles and instant paperless delivery, not a face-value discount. The discount channels are:

  • Secondary marketplaces (Raise, CardCash). Resold Auntie Anne's / GoTo Foods cards from third parties, typically a few percent below face value. Verify the balance before redeeming, since secondary sellers occasionally list cards with partial balances.
  • Supermarket and warehouse rack promos. Grocery and club gift-card racks occasionally run bonus-card or fuel-points promotions on dining cards, though Auntie Anne's appears less often than national restaurant chains.
  • GoTo Foods brand promotions. Auntie Anne's and its sibling brands run periodic bonus-card or app-only deals around the holidays. These come and go and rarely discount the gift card itself below face.

The bigger combined return comes from the rewards stack below: your credit card, Auntie Anne's Pretzel Perks at redemption, and Dyme Miles on the purchase. Most buyers leave that money on the table.

How to stack rewards

Three rewards programs fire on a single Auntie Anne's gift card purchase through Dyme.

How to buy on auntieannes.com

  1. Go to the Auntie Anne's gift card page.
  2. Choose physical or e-gift, then pick a design and the amount from $5 to $200.
  3. Add to cart and check out. Auntie Anne's does not run a member discount on gift cards, and Pretzel Perks points do not accrue on gift-card purchases.

How to buy in store

Any Auntie Anne's location sells gift cards at the counter. Tell the associate the amount you want, pay with cash or card, and walk out with the card. The same card also works at sibling GoTo Foods brands — Carvel, Cinnabon, Jamba, McAlister's Deli, Moe's, and Schlotzsky's — so it's a flexible food-court gift.

How to buy at Costco, Sam's Club, or a supermarket

Auntie Anne's and GoTo Foods cards turn up on third-party gift-card racks and sites like GiftCards.com, plus some supermarket and club racks. Pricing is usually face value, but you earn the retailer's loyalty points and any fuel rewards that apply to gift-card purchases. Availability varies by store, since Auntie Anne's appears on racks less consistently than the largest national dining chains.

Designs and personalization

Physical cards: a handful of designs in the Auntie Anne's catalog, including seasonal and "Mix It Up" GoTo Foods options that highlight all seven brands on one card.

E-gift cards: multiple designs with a customizable message at checkout.

There is no individually purchasable co-branded design. For bulk and employee orders, see corporate ordering below.

Delivery and timing

  • E-gift via Dyme: 1 to 60 minutes by email. Save it in the Auntie Anne's app or show the barcode at the counter.
  • E-gift via auntieannes.com: 1 to 60 minutes by email.
  • Physical via auntieannes.com: 5 to 10 business days standard shipping.
  • Physical in store or on a rack: Immediate — walk out with the card.

Dyme does not mail physical cards. If you need a physical card in hand, auntieannes.com or a gift-card rack is the path.

Corporate and bulk buying

GoTo Foods runs a corporate and bulk gift-card program covering Auntie Anne's and its sibling brands, with volume ordering, custom amounts, and employee-reward use cases. Contact the GoTo Foods / Auntie Anne's corporate gift-card team to start a bulk order.
