The campaign utilizes a digital-first approach where gameplay must be conducted through the McDonald’s mobile app, despite the presence of physical stickers on certain food items.

Simultaneously, McDonald’s Canada has launched a “Monopoly Golden Edition” running from September 29 to November 2, 2026. This campaign offers over $400 million in prizes, including a 10-karat gold Quarter Pounder and weekly cash prizes of $25,000.
