Tokens

Tokens are a form of currency formerly used at Chuck E. Cheese restaurants to play games. The Chuck E. Cheese branded tokens were first released in 1979, but appeared several years prior at other Chuck E. Cheese locations. Starting in 2016, tokens were predominantly replaced with Play Pass cards at many US and Canadian locations. But despite this fact, tokens are still produced in some form with the most recent being produced in 2024, as well as having certain games that are still reliant on them.

As of 2020, most token-based stores are internationally located.

Juvenile and Adult Tokens[]

From 1995 to 2006, two different tokens were produced for the year, Juvenile and Adult tokens. Juvenile tokens used Cool/Avenger Chuck on the front of the token and were used mostly at corporate locations. Adult tokens used Tux Chuck on the front of the token and were used mostly at franchised locations. Some locations would have a mix of the two types, but most stores only had one.
