Easy cash
May 30, 2024

I was hesitant to try this. I'm so glad I did. Very easy to earn cash and there are no hidden fees or obligations. This is so much fun! I'm telling everyone about Ibotta!

Rebate
May 30, 2024

Made a purchase. Wanted to try the product (not something we buy) was excited to try it because of the rebate. Was disappointed that the rebate disappeared. They were kind enough to let me have it anyway. Thank you ibotta team.

A lot of improvement is needed!
May 30, 2024

A lot of improvement is needed! 90% of the time the app will not recognize the deals and apply them. You have to click 'Go back' and search it yourself and apply them and even then the app does not recognize the deals and does not apply them. Then you have to contact Customer Care and ask them to apply it manually. It is a pain in the neck and I think it is being done purposely, just so they can get your receipt without paying you cash back. This way they will lose us. We will go to some other app where things are much simpler to use and apply it for you, so you don't have to go back and search for it for yourself, hoping that you didn't miss any cash back. It is an evil way how this Ibotta App works. They are pretty much hoping that they don't have to pay you, but they will collect data anyways.

I have saved a $1,000 with Ibotta so far. The choice of food selection is very good.
The customer service is really great. I highly recommend this company.

Connect account!
May 30, 2024

The first time I used Ibotta after connecting my account, they emailed me to tell me I had another eligible item on that purchase. I went in and added the offer, and got paid for it. Thanks for reminding me, I appreciate that!

Rebates
May 30, 2024

Offers vary. Some weeks offers are logical and great. Other weeks not so much. Lately it seems receipts are not look at throughly. I've been having to submit "missing cash" quite a bit.

I won't shop now without IBOTTA
May 29, 2024

IBOTTA has made shopping fun! I earned $133 pretty quickly! That money saved us, we had some unexpected financial issues a few days before we got our work paycheck. We desperately needed money to get by. I knew I could transfer my earnings to my bank account, but that would take a few days. Then I remembered that I could get gift cards immediately, literally from like 145 places. So I got a $50 from Walmart and a $50 for Chipotle. They email it to you in seconds and you scan it at the restaurant or store. It was a lifesaver!
Also what's cool is if you buy something, let's say Walmart and you forget check it on IBOTTA, they will email and msg you on IBOTTA that you have missing money back! They tell you that you missed money back on something you bought. It's all pretty awesome! I love IBOTTA!

Grateful for Ibotta
May 29, 2024

Before Ibotta I never had any extra to go out to eat or grab some new clothes but now with our savings we have been able to enjoy going to eat again. Made the holidays a breeze with all their fantastic deals.
