McDonald’s Monopoly 2022 is back – here’s everything you need to know to win big. The sticker collecting game has prizes including £100k cash, a holiday abroad or in the UK, and free food.
You may just enjoy getting a free McFlurry for after your meal, but there are millions of bigger prizes up for grabs and you can cash in.
Take a look at how you can maximise your chances to win a big prize.
When is McDonald’s Monopoly 2022?
It was confirmed on Twitter that McDonald’s Monopoly will start in autumn 2022.
Known as Double Peel, it launches on 7 September 2022.
They shared a short video with the caption: “Double the peel, double the fun. MONOPOLY is BACK on September 7th with brand new prizes AND double the chance to peel”.
How to play 2022 McDonald’s Monopoly
With most items of food you buy, you can a little McDonald’s Monopoly sticker or game piece.
Each one is based on the classic Hasbro board game, and you need to collect each set.
You can collect the game pieces eat time you eat or drink, save them up and you can swap them for free McDonald’s food or big prizes!
You can use the McDonald’s app to scan or enter your property to bank it (and keep it safe).
DO NOT THROW AWAY THE PIECES
You will need the peeled sticker to redeem your prize. So, although you can store their details in the app, keep the pieces somewhere safe too.
Each time you do this, you get an extra peel and another virtual sticker to add to your collection.
There are no physical or printable game boards this year, and the peelable piece doesn’t have a “sticky” layer to stick anywhere else. You can simply keep all the pieces in the app.
What are the prizes?
There are loads of different things you can win. Each of the stickers can get you different prizes:
Instant win prizes
With some Monopoly stickers, you can get an instant win prize.
The sticker will say what you’ve won, which could be free McDonald’s food to get straight away in the restaurants, like a McFlurry or Apple Pies (which is what I’ve usually won).
There are also loads of other prizes like shopping vouchers, £1,000 to spend on Home Entertainment, cash, and you can even get a prize from the main properties set.
Collect to Wine game – online game pieces
Every single sticker gets you a Digital Peel.
Once you’ve done an online peel, you’ve got a few different outcomes:
- Property Peel – you win a random common or rare property.
- Community Chest Peel – you win an instant prize (non-cash goodies like shopping vouchers and free McDonald’s food)
- Prize Draws Peel – win an entry to one of nine prize draws (winner announced 24 October 2022)
- Cash Peel – win a prize between £5 and £100
Online cash prizes are allocated at the rate of 2 winning moments every minute!
It’s available up until 18 October 2022.
Just in case you’ve “wombled” some stickers, there is a daily limit of 24 entries per person per day.
Collect to win – property prizes
I think, deep down, it’s what everyone wants to get – and get a whole set in one meal – we can but dream!
With a property game piece, you get a street or station. You then need to collect a whole set on the McDonald’s Monopoly play board to win the prize.
So, depending on the set, you will either need to collect two, three or four different properties.
The big prizes everyone wants are £100k in cash, an electric car, a holiday, vouchers for a shopping spree, and more!
Rare McDonald’s Monopoly
Each group of property pieces has one that’s much rarer than the others.
Don’t give up hope!
Rare stickers
There are a fair few rare pieces that you MUST keep if you find one. The chances of getting one of the other colours are higher, so you will likely win.

How to increase your chances of winning
Eating more burgers might be one way to score more stickers, but it’ll cost you ££ and you’ll gain lbs!
One of the better ways to go about it is to be more selective with how you eat.
Eat carefully
Your usual might be a Big Mac value meal, but you won’t be getting the best sticker value. In fact, you’re not going to get many at all!
You don’t get sticker with some items, so you’ll miss out.
Menu items with game pieces
| Menu items | Number of stickers |
|---|---|
| Chicken & Bacon Salad or Chicken Salad | 3 |
| Chicken Selects® 3 or 5 Pieces | 3 |
| McPlant™ | |
| Chicken Legend® (mayo, BBQ or Spicy) | 3 |
| Big Tasty® with or without Bacon | 3 |
| Any Big Flavour Wrap | 3 |
| Spicy Chicken McNuggets® (6 or 9 Pieces) or Spicy Chicken McNuggets® Sharebox® | |
| Medium or Large Carbonated Soft Drink | 3 |
| Any item from the McCafé® Iced range | 3 |
| Medium or Large Fries | 2 |
| Mozzarella Dippers or sharebox | 2 |
| Mars® or Twix® McFlurry® | 2 |
| Shaker Side Salad (with medium or large meal) | 3 |
| Vegetable Bag (with medium or large meal) | 3 |
| Fruit Bag (with medium or large meal) | 3 |
Fries are considered an unhealthier option, so have been demoted to 2 stickers from 2019.
To get more, the best thing you can do is switch out the fries for a side salad.
The famous Big Mac or nuggets don’t come with any stickers either. So, it’s best to switch over to perhaps a Big Tasty or the Chicken Selects while it’s running.
Pick your online game times carefully
As I mentioned above, there are two winning moments a minute for online games.
This can also mean you’ve got more chance of losing at certain times during the Monopoly promotion.
Don’t run to a computer after lunch and pop the code in – everyone does that. Hold back.
Try and enter the code first thing in the morning, or even in the middle of the night, as you will have less competition with others.
You can also only enter 24 times per day for the online game.
Wombling
You may have already done this with receipts for loyalty apps…I’m not sure how thrifty you are? If you see litter on the ground (not in the bin as it’s actually considered theft), you can use the receipt to get extra loyalty perks.
With McDonald’s usually, you can get the free coffee stickers (although they are being phased out now for app only collection).
During McDonald’s Monopoly, you could happen to find a number of extra stickers from a customer who isn’t collecting the game pieces.
Staff may not be too happy; some may not care.

When did McDonalds Monopoly start?
The fast food chain started the sticker collecting phenomenon back in 1987 in America.
It’s an annual McDonald’s Monopoly promotion and giveaway which runs from March until the end of April or the beginning of May each year with huge instant prizes.
Does anyone ever actually win McDonald’s Monopoly prizes?
McDonald’s has given away millions of prizes to customers as part of the game, including instant win grub, shopping vouchers, weekend breaks, technology, cars and cash prizes.
In 2018 alone, 8,006,175 prizes were claimed, including 6 Mini Coopers, three £100,000 cash prizes, two £25k prizes and a Universal Holiday.
McDonalds Monopoly rules
Just in case you want to have a look at the rules, old and new, here they are:
In short, to play McDonald’s Monopoly, you need to be over 18 to play.
Plus, you can only use the game pieces from the year we’re in. If you kept last years, they are now worthless.

McDonald’s Monopoly cancelled and returned
Although the game was cancelled in 2020, McDonald’s Monopoly returned for 2021. McDonald’s Monopoly launched on Wednesday, 25 August 2021.
The game usually starts in March each year but was launched later. This was no doubt because of “freedom day” and the end of restrictions.
However, it’s launched later in 2022 as well.
