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.

Unhappy withpurchases with $#*!s
June 26, 2024

Although my purchases are supposed to be recorded when I visit $#*!s Market. $#*!s says it is not their fault. You tell me it is working but it is not. That is my closest grocery store & I am frustered that Ibotta doesn't work there.
Also uhapppy with scanning the reciepts at Smiths & other stores. Dificult & time consuming.

Ibotta sent me a reminder after I purchased two items that were eligible for rebate. I followed the instructions and got my rebate on the items.

So Patient!
June 26, 2024
Updated review

First of all, I want to thank the receipt checkers for being so patient with me. I add an item, get credit, then, stupidly I remove the item and it takes the cash back. I have trouble trying to take the picture of the receipts. Wish it could be easier for me. Finally I get it right but it can take me a few hours because I take a break, think about it then try again. I feel Walmart is one of the easiest receipts to submit.

Previous review

I had issues trying to get the receipt to be accepted. Kept on trying and no luck. Then I tried again and it worked. It was an issue with the app.
Now it's hopefully fixed. I was given more money than I was suppose to because of the issues with the app. Getting closer to cashing out soon.
Thank you to the agent who did not give up on me.

Money back on my everyday purchases.
June 25, 2024
Updated review

I love the money back from Ibotta. It takes just a few minutes to scroll the offers and if you have your card attached to the store the money is automatically put into the Ibotta account. Very easy to use

Excellent customer service
June 25, 2024

Although the missing cashback looks like it was my error, I thought I checked the boost product, but apparently it didn't take or I plain missed it. Customer service credited the amount anyway. With food prices today and social security being what it is, It was appreciated that Ibotta made the credit to my account.

Unable to submit Walmart receipt.
June 25, 2024

Walmart receipt TC# will not scan, nor will it let me add it manually. It also will not let me take a photo to submit. Very frustrating, especially because of the amount I would have been credited. I don not have a Walmart account to connect and do not want one. Will this be the only way to obtain credit from Walmart receipts

I purchased 4 tonco pot size spaghetti and there is a rebat for.75 up to 5 limit. Even after the review I still didn't get my rebate. This keeps happening especially if I shop at krogers but the rebate is plainly seen. I'm so disappointed in ibotta, this has happened several times before. Usually ibotta can't read krogers receipts but it's strange that my other rebate apps have no problem reading the same receipt! It used to be fun but it's more of a struggle than ever.

Ibotta attempted to help this customer through the SmartCustomer Resolution Center, but the customer did not respond
