Link your CougarCard to the Starbucks app

The WSU community can now link their CougarCard to the Starbucks app through Starbucks Connect.

This convenient new feature allows you to:

  • Order ahead
  • Earn Starbucks® Rewards
  • Pay with Dining Dollars or Cougar Cash at the Starbucks in the Spark building on the Pullman campus and other participating locations

Getting started is easy:

  1. Download or open the Starbucks app (make sure it’s updated).
  2. Tap the profile icon → “Starbucks Cards & Payments.”
  3. Tap “Payment → Add Payment.”
  4. Under “More Payment Options,” tap “Campus Card.”
  5. Select “Washington State University” from the list.
  6. Log in with your WSU credentials and accept the prompts.
  7. You’ll see a confirmation once your account is linked.

After setup, your CougarCard will appear as a payment method — ready to use for your next Starbucks run.

Note: CougarCard can only be used at Starbucks in the Spark building and at other participating locations when it is linked and used through the Starbucks app.
