About AMC Stubs
AMC Stubs Rewards is a loyalty program offered by AMC Theatres, designed to reward moviegoers for their purchases and visits to AMC locations. The program provides members with various perks, such as earning points on eligible purchases, discounts, and exclusive offers, enhancing the overall moviegoing experience. It caters to different types of movie fans through its multiple membership tiers, each offering distinct benefits based on how frequently someone visits the theater.
The program has three main tiers:
- AMC Stubs Insider: This is the free tier, open to anyone. Members earn 20 points per dollar spent on tickets and concessions. For every 5,000 points accumulated, you get a $5 reward that can be used on food and drinks (but not tickets). Other benefits include free large popcorn refills, discounted tickets on Tuesdays, and a free large popcorn and fountain drink on your birthday (if your birthday is registered 30 days prior). It’s ideal for casual moviegoers who want rewards without a fee.
- AMC Stubs Premiere: This tier costs $17.99 per year (as of 2025, up from $15 previously) and offers enhanced benefits. Members earn 100 points per dollar spent—five times faster than Insider—and the $5 rewards (earned at 5,000 points) can be used on both tickets and concessions. Additional perks include waived online ticket fees, free size upgrades on popcorn and fountain drinks, priority lanes at the box office and concessions (at participating locations), and the same birthday and popcorn refill benefits as Insider. This tier suits frequent moviegoers who want more value from their visits.
- AMC Stubs A-List: A subscription-based tier for avid movie fans, with pricing varying by state (e.g., $19.99 to $27.99 per month as of May 2025). Members can see up to four movies per week (recently increased from three) in any format, including premium options like IMAX and Dolby Cinema, with no blackout dates. Benefits reset weekly on Fridays, and members earn 100 points per dollar on additional purchases (not the included tickets). It includes all Premiere perks, like waived online fees for reservations, free upgrades, and priority access. This is best for those who watch movies regularly and want a near-unlimited cinema experience.
Additionally, there’s a newer sub-tier called Premiere GO!, introduced in 2025. It’s free for Insider members who see at least eight movies or earn 5,000 points in a calendar year. It offers many Premiere benefits—like 40 points per dollar, free upgrades, and priority lanes—without the annual fee, lasting through the current and next calendar year once earned. It’s a bridge for loyal Insiders to enjoy more rewards without upfront costs.
Points are earned on purchases like tickets and concessions at participating AMC Theatres, and rewards can’t be used for gift cards, merchandise, membership fees, or alcohol. The program’s flexibility and tiered structure make it appealing to a wide range of moviegoers, from occasional visitors to cinema enthusiasts, with benefits tailored to frequency of use and spending. Membership terms and pricing can change, and benefits are valid only at participating locations, with some exclusions applying (e.g., gourmet popcorn isn’t eligible for refills).
