Newcomer Chips (Hours, Days, Months)

Q: What are AA newcomer chips?

Newcomer chips mark the earliest milestones of recovery: 24 hours, then 30, 60, and 90 days. They give people something tangible to hold onto in the most fragile stretch of early sobriety.

Q: What does a 24-hour chip mean, and when is it given out?

The 24-hour chip recognizes a full day sober. It is usually offered at a meeting to anyone starting over, no questions asked, as encouragement to keep coming back.

Q: Can newcomer chips be customized with our group name?

Yes. Add your group name, location, or message; we send a proof for approval before production.

Q: Are these chips officially sanctioned by AA?

No. Chips are a grassroots AA tradition and are not produced, licensed, or endorsed by Alcoholics Anonymous.

Q: Ordering for a whole group?

For a group or intergroup order, just reach out and we will sort out the details with you. Most orders ship the next business day.

For those embarking on the path to recovery, every sober day is a triumph—a step toward healing and growth. We recognize that early sobriety may be a fragile yet profound period, where each day marks a new opportunity for transformation and self-discovery. Ready to count years instead of days?
