Review summary

Most reviews criticize Gong Cha USA for location accuracy and store availability, with the app repeatedly showing distant stores, failing to detect the user’s location, or omitting nearby options. Users also report loyalty rewards issues—points either not earning, not applying, or disappearing after updates or login problems. Reliability problems are common: password errors, login failures, and glitches after app updates. Several reviewers accuse the app of fragmentation, requiring multiple apps or only listing a few stores. A few users still see the loyalty system and ordering as intended, but overall experience is frequently frustrating.

Pros

Loyalty rewards/points system is present in the app.
The app is designed to show Gong Cha locations for ordering and pickup.
Aims to unify Gong Cha ordering under a single USA app (instead of multiple store-specific apps).

Cons

Location accuracy and store availability are unreliable: nearby stores may not appear, far-away stores appear, or listings disappear after updates.
Loyalty rewards issues: points may not accrue or apply, and rewards can disappear or be tied to problematic logins.
Frequent reliability issues: login problems, password errors, and glitches after app updates.
Fragmented experience due to multiple apps or lack of a true universal app (store-specific versions or separate apps).
Geographic coverage is severely limited, with only a few states/stores supported, making it unusable for many users.

2026-05-29	Dl*****	Loved the previous app, it send notifications right away when my order was received and tracked when it was ready. I downloaded the new one and it would not take my credentials. New app has been glitchy and slow.

2026-05-12	Li*****	I was in Menifee California and ordered Gongcha there. The app doesn’t show the location and only display very limited location. As well there is no option to add point/reward online either.

2026-04-30	do*****	I have been buying tea here for months. Haven’t used my points because a silly rule where I have to spend more than $7 to be able to use the points. When my drink is always below $6. Even that is too much for a simple TEA. Nothing else! Just TEA sweetener and ice. Just signed into my account with the app and it shows I have zero points. I’m absolutely never going here again. To any of these tea shops. There are better places.
