Easy way to earn a little extra money
February 26, 2024

Ibotta is easy to use. It usually has a least a few products I buy listed and has encouraged me to try different products that have good incentives.

Worth It!
February 26, 2024

I've been using Ibotta now for a couple of years. It takes a few minutes before you go shopping to check off things or review updates on the app, but totally worth the small amount of time put into it. I catch myself sometimes buying something online, only to realize I didn't go through Ibotta! There's lots of businesses you can pick from to get money back, and very satisfying when you receive cash. There's a few glitches here and there, but it usually evens out.

Best Reward App Ever!
February 26, 2024

The reason why I would give Ibotta a 5-star rating is because I recently purchased a Two Good smoothie at Giant today, but I only got one smoothie, because I did not have time to purchase the second one, so I did not get that reward.

Still Having Issues Wimth Acme Receipts
February 26, 2024

I've submitted receipts over the last few months with Acme deals that sometimes do not get recognized. I've scanned the items and still don't get cash back for those items. Today it was Post cereal that qualifies but I did not get the cash back. I do not have issues with ShopRite receipts.

Ibotta gives good cash back
March 5, 2024

I typically love the cash back but recently I have been approved for money back and then a few days later they remove my credit. Not cool

I do enjoy getting cash back!
February 24, 2024

I'm new and figuring how to link up some accounts could be easier. But let's face it, it's probably my fault for not doing it correctly!

Using Ibotta
March 4, 2024

Too hard to use! Wasting my time sitting here clicking on "deals". Then go to the store and Oh we can't give you that deal because the store offers you discounts through their app! Whatever! So far I've saved.20 🎉 and wasted 3 hours that I'll never get back 👎🏼
