"Partner" |
||
Issued only to Starbucks employees, this card represents the barista apron and Starbucks patch. It's unique for a variety of reasons, but mostly it's use as a Partner discount and weekly markout card. Before this card was designed and issued to partners in 2003, a cardboard ID was used (see below). Another example of the early paper Partner Card can been seen here. The "Partner" card (as shown above) is considered Hard-to-Find. The highest price paid for the Partner Card (as of 9-1-06) is $530.01 on March 26th, 2006.
UPDATE 2-20-06. The Partner Card had a 'face lift'....now the partners name and employee number is located in the top left corner of the Card. It used to be below the white strip, but because it's on the opposite side of the magnetic strip, it was wearing off too quickly being scanned through the card readers.
