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.

Not user friendly
June 27, 2024

Not user friendly, and I don't care to write an entire paragraph about the app not being user friendly.

Quick responses and good deals :)
June 27, 2024

I've had ibotta for a few years but in the beginning I couldn't figure it out, but in the last 2 years I've started using it again and it is amazing! I automatically check the app before my shopping trips or randomly to see what's new! When I'm missing anything which doesn't happen often at all they are quick to fix it and respond fast no days of waiting! Definitely a go to for me.

Three years now as an Ibotta user. I have saved around $1800 clipping coupons. Just clip the coupons you want and snap a picture of your receipt. The app finds the offers and you get the money credited to your account. Easy!

Customer Service

I was short money on an offer I redeemed. I contacted customer service and it was remedied within two hours. The Ibotta customer service is top-notch. Probably the best I've ever dealt with!

This app used to be great but the longer I use it the less I like it. After scanning receipts and items you again have to scan to send a ticket to get credits for your purchase. It has become more work to get offers than it is worth.
