What are the requirements for restaurants to be eligible for the incentive?
All restaurants are eligible; however, because points are being calculated versus a pre-period, any restaurant that is closed for > 1 day during the pre-period (8/22-9/2) will be excluded from the incentive
How will points be determined?
Touchdowns will be awarded for each full average transaction above your established target. There will be no rounding. There is no limit to the number of touchdowns a restaurant can score.
Field Goals will be awarded by exceeding your soft drink UPT target. A restaurant can only score (1) FG per week.
How were targets established and where can I find them?
Targets were established by utilizing each restaurant’s actual digital GC results and soft drink UPT’s for the period of August 22 nd – September 2 nd .
Targets will be based on available data reported from McDonald’s as of noon EST on September 4, 2024. Any data for the base period, August 22, 2024 – September 2, 2024 received after September 4, 2024 at noon EST, will be reconciled at the end of the incentive and will impact the communicated targets. Final results will be based on available data at noon EST on October 7, 2024.
Targets will be posted on www.drpepperincentive.com on 9/5. You can find your target by visiting the site and entering your national store number.
How will results be communicated?
Individual restaurant, Business Unit, and Field Office standings will all be posted on www.drpepperincentive.com by Wednesday of each week. After entering your NSN, the results for all restaurants within that Business Unit belonging to your Owner/Operator Organization will be displayed.
Field Offices may send additional details at their discretion.
