Good but confusing
March 26, 2024

Most of the time everything works. But on several occasins I have purchased the exact described product scanned the receipt and the product barcode only to get 'barcode does not match'. This happened a couple of days ago I purchased 4 bottles of Ocean Spray cranberry juice 64 oz. And received this notice when I tried to submit the receipt. I re-read the described offer several times and the product is exactly as described.

Your app sucks
March 26, 2024

In the last month I have had to go through all your hoops to get the cash back I earned on purchases. I have to track it and request the amounts. You have given me credit for two items on one receipt and missed six others. But mostly the entire receipt is just ignored. When it try to submit the receipt, it tells me it has already been submitted. You have subsequently asked to submit a copy of the receipt so you can verify the purchases - I already submitted a photo with the original request!
Not to mention that after all of this, you finally give me the credits, but don't apply the purchases to the bonuses. I have repeatedly asked for help to figure out what is wrong with my linked card and walmart and am told that I might be using another card that is linked - NOT, I have ONE credit card. There is a problem on your end

I do use but at homeland I can't get the offers for some reason. I have the homeland card and it's registered with ibis's but I never see cash back. I usually don't shop at homeland anyway their prices are significantly higher than Walmart.

Should be easier to use
March 26, 2024

Like the app, but dislike having to scroll through to select items. Wish it would automatically select from the scanned receipt.

Not as good as I thought
March 26, 2024

I heard about this app and was thrilled, but now I'm seeing there's a lot of packaged processed food options, no fresh healthy foods. (Boxed is not healthy) just thought there would be more of a variety on here.

I thought this would be like clipping coupons and it is to some extent, but you're getting my entire receipt, don't you see what I got that's on your list of offers. I'm telling you I'm gong to Ralph's to shop, with the aide of bot that you're using, can't you see that I bought what you wanted me to buy.
I don't know, seems frustrating.
