What is FordPass Rewards?
FordPass Rewards is an exciting program that allows members to earn and redeem valuable Points on vehicle service and maintenance or new vehicle purchases.
Membership
How do members join FordPass Rewards?
Joining FordPass Rewards is easy. When customers download the FordPass® App or register on owner.ford.com, they automatically become members of FordPass Rewards. Get started by downloading the FordPass App for iPhone or Android. A FordGuide and the dealership can also assist with enrollment.
Are FordPass App users automatically enrolled in FordPass
Yes. When customers accept terms and conditions for FordPass® (either through the app or online), they are automatically enrolled in FordPass Rewards. If FordPass members joined prior to March 2019, they will need to accept the new terms and conditions and will then be enrolled in FordPass Rewards.
Can a customer sign up for FordPass Rewards without an email address?
No, customers cannot sign up for FordPass Rewards without an email address.
Do members need to own a Ford vehicle to participate in FordPass Rewards?
No. Members can still enjoy all the benefits of FordPass Rewards without owning a Ford vehicle. Points are associated with a member account, not a vehicle.
Can a member share a FordPass Rewards account with family?
No. FordPass Rewards accounts are based on the individual account owner.
Do members have to use the FordPass App to earn rewards?
No. Members can earn FordPass Rewards at their participating dealership and view their account online at FordPassRewards.com. However, they do a need a Ford Owner or Lincoln Owner account to participate. The FordPass App is necessary to complete FordPass Connect™ modem activation for modem-equipped vehicles to earn Points with your vehicle purchase.
If a member has more than one FordPass Rewards account, can they combine the accounts or redeem from more than one account on a single transaction?
No. Accounts may not be combined, and a member may only redeem from one account on a single repair order or transaction.
Can a member combine their account with the account of a family member or friend?
No. Accounts may not be combined, and any earning and redemption is separate.
Can a customer be a member of both FordPass Rewards and Lincoln Access Rewards™ and transfer Points between accounts?
FordPass Rewards and Lincoln Access Rewards are designed to align with the member's vehicle. A customer may be a member of both programs, but as separate programs, Points cannot be transferred between accounts. In addition, a member may only redeem from one account on a single repair order or transaction.
Are Points earned when members visit a Quick Lane?
Yes, a member has the same earning and redemption opportunities at participating Quick Lanes as they do in dealership service lanes.
*The same earning, redeeming, and membership details applies to Lincoln Owner accounts and Lincoln Access Rewards members. Lincoln and Mercury vehicles fall under the Lincoln Access Rewards Program and these owners should create a Lincoln Owner account to participate in earning and redeeming rewards.
How do members view their FordPass Rewards Points balance?
Members can see FordPass Rewards Points balances when logged in to their Owner account or in the FordPass App under the Account tab. The dealer can also look up the balance.

FordPass Rewards is available to everyone. Customers can join when they purchase a new vehicle or later in their ownership.
