Starbucks used to have cards that would let you download individual apps that worked like this.

An old episode of Build and Analyze discussed participation in the Starbucks promotion: http://5by5.tv/buildanalyze/80
I think I remember that. Were they paid apps Starbucks had a deal with, or free ones?
Bit of both. I downloaded some free apps via the cards but mostly they were paid app redemption codes (in-app purchases excluded, of course).

The program moved to the Starbucks app a year or so ago but seems to have stopped.

I never saw it for apps, only music.
Lots of paid apps, games and even e-books, I have several cards for Monument Valley.
If you have an extra one and don't mind sharing, I've been waiting to get into stardew valley... If you could email it to me (in my profile page) I'd be so happy :)
Psst... He said monument valley, not stardew valley. :)
