Ibotta Reviews Summary

The company enjoys a generally positive reputation among users who appreciate its ease of use and significant savings potential. Many customers commend the prompt and effective customer service, highlighting the team's responsiveness in resolving issues related to cash back discrepancies. However, recurring concerns include frustrations over payout limits, inaccuracies in rebate credits, and a perceived lack of variety in eligible products, particularly for budget-conscious shoppers. Overall, while the app is valued for its savings, improvements in product offerings and payout reliability could enhance customer satisfaction further.

Who know how much fun this could be?
November 16, 2024

Who doesn't love a little extra Christmas spending cash? That's where I put my Ibotta savings!

I get money back on all the things I normally shop for, even on some gift cards! Earning money really adds up fast when you hit the grocery store and Target.

Ibotta customer service rocks!
November 15, 2024

I purchased 5 twelve packs of soda on 2 different receipts on October 26th. When I uploaded my receipts to Ibotta only 1 twelve pack showed. I corrected both receipts to 5 but for some reason neither one stayed at 5. I waited for a couple days for each correction but no luck. I finally contacted Ibotta customer service and I heard back within a day and the issue was corrected. The representative sounded very pleasant in her response. I was surprised the issue on both receipts was taken care of so quickly!

Love it.
November 15, 2024

I had a problem (turns out I was wrong), but they promptly replied, explained the situation, and even gave me some credit. I have used it for years. It is nice being able to get real cash for things that you are already buying.

Offers need expiration dates
November 15, 2024

It would be very helpful if the offers included expiration dates. Not just the alarm clock when there is 24 hrs remaining.
Also it is very difficult to contact the team when problems arise. Please do something about this issue.

Good app, bad customer service
November 15, 2024

Love the app and all the offers but the customer service is appalling. I've never had to go round and round with people so many times with absolutely zero care or comprehension of what is going on. When it works it is great but if there is an error it is awful

Not easy to contact with a problem regarding incorrect rebate, and Ibotta didn't really review an item that is a legitimate purchase but claims to have reviewed the product in question. A box of store brand tampons was deemed ineligible for Any Brand Feminine Care Product. How is that accurate?

Missing money
November 13, 2024

Check your receipts carefully. I frequently have missing money and have to scan bar codes. It's worse when it's a store linked to your rewards card. Then you have to find how to submit a dispute. Not sure it's worth the savings.

Best app for making money back!
November 12, 2024

I've been using this app since 2016! Almost 10 years. I've had few problems here and there but when I do I just contact support team and they always make it right for me if something is messed up! Thank you Ibotta! I've made over $500 using your app! Fyi! So definitely worth it!

Missing bonus fixed!
November 10, 2024

It took me many times of explaining what had not gone through on a Walmart online order that completed a bonus. With back and forth communication it was fixed. This made me happy and I will continue to use Ibotta and recommend it to others.
