Chipotle Mexican Grill is back with its popular trivia game, Chipotle IQ, and they’re offering fans a chance to win free burritos. The game tests your knowledge of Chipotle’s ingredients, cooking methods, and brand history, and successful participants can score “buy-one-get-one” (BOGO) deals or even free burritos for a year.

How to Play and Win

The giveaway kicks off on Tuesday, August 20, at 9:01 a.m. Eastern, and runs until Thursday, August 22, at 11:59 p.m. Eastern. Here’s how it works:

  1. Visit the Game Website: Head to chipotleiq.com and log in with your Chipotle Rewards account email.
  2. Answer Trivia Questions: The quiz features multiple-choice, true/false, and write-in questions about all things Chipotle.
  3. Get a Perfect Score: Answer all 10 questions correctly to unlock a bonus “extra credit” question.
    • A perfect score earns you a BOGO code and enters you into a drawing for one of 50 free burritos-for-a-year prizes.
  4. Partial Rewards: New this year, scoring 7, 8, or 9 out of 10 still nets you 25 rewards points (while supplies last).

Prizes

  • BOGO Codes: Chipotle will release 5,000 codes per hour to eligible players who score a perfect 10. Each code can be used to get a free regular menu entrée when purchasing another entrée.
  • Grand Prize: The extra credit question offers a chance to win free burritos for a year.

What Qualifies as a “Regular Entrée”?

The eligible menu items include:

  • Burritos
  • Burrito bowls
  • A single order of three tacos
  • Quesadillas (available only through the Chipotle app or website)
  • Salads

However, kids’ meals, 3-point meals, and single tacos are not included.

A Hint to Get Started

Chipotle’s Chief Brand Officer, Chris Brandt, teased a tip for trivia hopefuls: “We use 48 avocados in every batch of our hand-mashed guac.”

Why Fans Love Chipotle IQ

This marks the fifth year of Chipotle IQ, which has already amassed 4 million game plays since its launch. “We believe there’s an appetite for competition and free burritos,” Brandt said.
