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.

Always makes sure I get extra cash!
August 13, 2024

I stopped at Food Lion to grab 2 forgotten items. I never gave Ibotta a thought it's not my normal store but the next day I received an email one of the items had cash back and if I added it I'd get the cash back.

I have been in contact with Ibotta (emails) about not receiving my cash back that was earned and I feel like I'm getting the run around. I have been asked to send the same information 4 different times with no results. Had no issues at all with getting cash back until I reached the $250+ level.

Love this app.
August 13, 2024

Always happy with results from this app but have a hard time creating a ticket with a problem. Contacting a person is hard to do but overall I'm happy with this app.

Good Cash Back App
August 12, 2024

Ibotta has good offers. Also, Ibotta has quick service. On Ibotta you get a gift card right away when you earned enough to receive a gift card.

To begin I enjoy the the ability to earn cash back especially since I don't like to use credit cards; also the customer service is immaculate fast response times and no frills. Helpful concise and straight to the point.

At first I was hesitant to use ibotta last year but I saw it on my Providers program, and decided to give it a try. Loving this app. You really do get cash back from everyday items I purchased. Once you get to $20 you can cash it out with PayPal or your bank account, or build up your cash back.

Great customer service!
August 12, 2024

I had a reciept that was not going through and I sent them an email. Found out the e receipt would not go through. I thanked Ibotta for the response and I got another response from Ibotta letting me know that they were putting the receipt through as a courtesy! That's great customer service as I did not expect that!

Unreadable Barcode
August 12, 2024

I bought an item that would not scan at the store so they entered it manually…because of this…I was unable to redeem my Ibotta cash back. I contacted Ibotta and explained the situation and sent a pic of my receipt… they added the money to my account.

Victory!
August 12, 2024

Through several emails, the staff helped me to receive most of my cash back and lastly bonus money. I guess a computer glitch. Thanks to all who helped. Didn't get reimbursed for my bolthouse beverages. I do appreciate all who helped.
