The coffee company from Seattle currently does not have an app in the third biggest mobile ecosystem. Enter Buckstar, which tries to bridge the gap by offering users the ability to keep track of their reward program.

The app allows users to connect to their starbucks.com account to have their card details including balance, card image, stars earned and free rewards available. Additional features include automatic update of card balance and the ability to get a notification when there is a change in the card balance.

The app also features wallet integration features that allows for the cards to be added to the wallet app

Key features include

  • Card details: Card balance, card image
  • Membership details: Stars earned, stars to next reward, redeemable free rewards, current membership level
  • Wallet integration: Ability of mobile payments through integration with the wallet app, with the last 12 transactions integrated into the wallet card
  • Notifications for card balance change

This app is developed as a store app and hence is available only for Windows Phone 8.1 at this time.

It is open for public beta testing and you can grab Buckstar for free at the windows phone store here.
