It's frustrating that certain foods are listed at certain stores only. I may buy something at Publix but it only gets points if purchased at Kroger and since I always shop sales, it's ridiculous. Come on Ibotta, do better with people trying to say money
I am bewildered about the Food lion dollar. I was under the impression that when I shop at Food lion. I would receive the one dollar on indicated on the toggle Food Lion. Most of my grocery shopping is done at Food Lion but I have not received this Dollar yet. Just don't understand the process thank you.
Twice now I have been missing cash back on items I have purchased from hannaford. My account is linked and I do not submit receipt and there is no way to submit for missing items. Last week I was missing 1 item that would have qualified for an extra bonus and when I reported that nothing was ever done. And I still got an email asking how they did

Ibotta makes it easy to use and i like the returning items that i buy frequently
I did not get my money for 10 days but I contacted them and I got it within 5 minutes Thank You ibotta
I didn't receive a $4 bonus and it took less than 12 hours for customer service to respond, put the $4 in my account and close the ticket! And they still had time to be nice and kind and helpful!
It's hard to find many of the items Ibotta has. I'm shopping regularly and can't seem to find anything on the Ibotta list that I'd actually use.

Not so good... bought an item; scanned item (which said it matched) and then iBotta denied it!
You charge money where other similar apps let you make money and you guys have us do more work.

They caught an item I had purchased at Hyvee, & will a couple of clicks, I was able to get the.75!
I have found the app easy to use and many products that I use or consume daily.
Overall, I find I do not purchase the products available for rebate. Initially there were more "any" products. Also there are other apps that simply scan your receipt and credit you for qualifying purchases. Having to scroll through so many products only to find I didn't purchase anything eligible is time consuming and annoying. Also, reducing my unclaimed credits following the pandemic only further soured my taste. I'll keep using, but not expecting much.

Just shop scan and enjoy money back. What can you say about free money except great service.
Thank you for your quick service and care! I'm so grateful.
Using the ibotta app is an easy way to earn some extra money on things that you plan to purchase.
There are many brick and mortar on online retailers from which to earn cashback from your purchases.
I recently had a minor issue that was quickly resolved to my complete satisfaction by ibotta's customer service team. Customer service is very accessible and response is amazingly fast!
I have been using Ibotta for a few years now. My lifetime earnings is about $1300. It's a great way to get rebates on products I normally use, as well as an opportunity to try new products. As I mentioned, I have been using Ibotta for a while. I have only had one bad experience, and it was last Thanksgiving. Other than that, everything has been great.
I have my Ibotta account linked to foodlion if I forget to check a money back item, IBotta alerts me so I can submit it. How great is that.
I purchased multiple cvs brand allergy medicines,
Including nasal spray, pills and eye drops I should have gotten 44.00 rebates with all the products, I was only given 29.00 and you can not talk to anyone about clearing up the issues. I was sent a letter to resend the receipt, I did that and also rescanned the items and still didn't get the correct amount.
I appreciate the help you gave me when I had some problems with my claims I love ibotta
Answer: Absolutely so true! I earned up just over $100 and when I went to cash out they said I was fraudulent YET I HAVE EVERY RECEIPT and all submissions were valid. It took me months to get to this amount. Hmmmmm Class action anyone?
Answer: Because they deny certain purchases due to cost! It's become a scam!
Answer: I tried to withdraw money for the first time and it said my account was locked because of multiple attempts which was not true.! I sent 5 requests for help in a week and they finally responded by deactivating my account and keeping the 360.00 that took me months to accumulate. They claim I tampered with a date on a receipt and I just crossed off the account number. So they can keep my money that is mine. How can I get my money back?
Answer: Sorry Jenna bit it seems like you're kinda late for that rebate a few years actually. I'm pretty sure that ibotta have 100% absolutely forgot about you and by not I'm sure you forgot about too. :)
Answer: Go to your $amount and cash out and it will say bank or gift card.
Answer: Why don't any product receipts add extra bonus for us?
Answer: You have to email the morons that run their customer support at least 3 times before you'll get the proper amount credited to your account.
