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.

Easy to use. Look through offers and click to add if interested. After shopping, submit receipt by uploading! This app takes the place of couponing and is much quicker.

Excellent Customer Service
November 8, 2024

Anytime I ever have a problem or place a pickup order I send an email to ask for help with my cash back offers and I have a great outcome. If by chance like today they forget something or miss calculate they are quick to fix the problem and their kindness goes a long way. I deal with different people every time but I do send a thank u 😊 especially when some go out of their way to reassure me. Thank U 😁😁😁 Cybil (Ibotta)

Awesomeness!
November 4, 2024

The cash back you receive on items you're going to buy, need and use on an every day basis. It's so easy to learn to use and becomes a hobby-game that you play with yourself. When you finally see your earnings add up it's exciting! You can save on presents for family members or save up to get the gift cards so holiday gifts are available for everyone! Save up all year and you have it to give. Amazing! Love my Ibotta

I love when it works like it is supposed to. I purchased items, and my offers didn't redeem. I tried to submit the receipt with a photo, it says it was already submitted. Help section is useless. I can't open the link to submit a request, the stupid chat bot won't show up in the corner to do it that way. The receipt I want to manually submit is not pending or even showing, and again, I can't submit it. Customer service options are the worst I've ever had to deal with.

Too hard to use
November 3, 2024

Find it to hard to earn any cash back. I deleted the app not worth the time it took to earn $1.

Misses alot
November 2, 2024

Ibotta does not give the credits it is supposed to give. It happens with Walmart, Food Lion, and Dollar General. I buy what is required and usually get the savings for Walmart...usually now and then missing some. Food Lion I got an email telling me to submit for Food Lion and Walmart things that were missed but there wasn't a "submit" button. Never ever get savings back for Dollar General.
