Where can I locate the QR insert card in eligible Blue Buffalo products?

The QR insert card is typically located inside, toward the bottom of the bag of eligible products. This is different from the SKU barcode located on the outside of the package.

As we continue to roll out the QR insert cards, please note there is a chance not every bag will contain a card. We are actively working to ensure every eligible bag includes a QR code and we appreciate your patience as we enhance this new feature.

How can I redeem my points?

How do I keep my Buddies account active?

Your account is no longer considered active if you have not earned Activity Points or redeemed any points within 366 days. So be sure to earn Activity Points or redeem points within 366 days to keep your Buddies account active! For more information, see the official Buddies Rewards Program Terms & Conditions.

When do my points expire?

Points are valid for 12 months from the date they were issued, unless otherwise noted.
