What is the 12-digit code on my receipt?
If you’re not a Papa Rewards member, you can use the 12-digit code at the bottom of your receipt to claim points for that order when you join. This code adds points to your Papa Rewards account, so you get a head-start towards earning Papa Dough.
To claim the points from your order:
- Sign up for or log in to your papajohns.com account.
- In your Rewards account, click “Claim Points” online, or “Request Points” in the app.
- Enter the 12-digit code from your store receipt.
- You’ll earn 1 point for every $1 you spend (not including tax, tip or fees - like delivery).
- Papa Reward Points are earned per whole dollar spent (not including tax, tip or fees - like delivery). Amounts exceeding any whole number will be rounded down.
- Points are awarded the next business day following your successful 12-digit code entry.
- Codes are single-use and can only be claimed once by the actual purchaser of the order.
- Codes expire three days after you receive them.
- For security reasons, we may limit the amount of times an account may claim a code in a discrete amount of time.
If you’re a current Papa Rewards member and ordered at your usual store, or were logged into your account when you ordered, you will not see the 12-digit code. Rewards members earn points automatically. If you don’t see a code on your receipt, it means you’ve already received points for that order. You can see your points in your account by the next business day.
How do I redeem my Papa Dough?

- Click “Order Now” to start an order and apply Papa Dough at checkout.
- Papa Dough can be used to reduce your payment depending on the order amount and available reward balance. There may be a maximum amount of Papa Dough that can be used on an order.
What are the latest updates to the Papa Rewards loyalty program?
Previously, Papa Rewards members needed to spend $75 to earn $10 in Papa Dough. Starting November 18, 2024, Papa Rewards members can earn Papa Dough on almost every order. Now, every order of $15 unlocks $2 in Papa Dough that can be used towards any menu item. Each $1 you spend gets you 1 point. Collect 15 points to earn $2 in Papa Dough, redeemable towards any Papa Johns menu item.
With the new Papa Rewards loyalty program update, what will happen to the points and Papa Dough I earned before 11/18?
Members with existing point balances on November 18 will have their points converted to Papa Dough following the new earning structure. Previously earned Papa Dough will remain in your account with its original expiration date.
