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.

Receipt issue
August 9, 2025

I received a very blurry receipt and was unable to upload. I reached out to the help center and Lord S. Assisted me! Very promptly and with a massive amount of empathy! It was such a great and seamless experience! I enjoy ibotta and am very happy they have people like Lord S. Working there to help!

I've saved (earned) a lot of $ using Ibotta... even with a 2-person household. I've had very few questions/issues, but Ibotta's customer service is quick and very helpful.

Don't get as many products show up that I would use in order to get money back as when I first started. Kinda disappointed…

Every now and then I run into an issue getting cash back with Ibotta. Sometimes it involves screenshots in multiple emails and it can get frustrating once in awhile but I can honestly say that anytime I have run into a snag I bought a Representatives always make it right even if there's fine print that Idont see or misunderstand, several instances they have given me the cash back that I was missing whether or not it was a mistake on their part or my part so I always highly recommend I bought her to my friends or co-workers or even just acquaintances because it's really great to be able to earn extra money from things that you're already buying. I will also say that I've been using I bought a for probably 5 years or more and I have deposited hundreds of dollars in my bank account just from getting cash back from things that I was already planning to buy!

TREASURE HUNT!
August 8, 2025

This app makes shopping a treasure hunt! I seldom buy something I don't need, but often things I will use in the future even if not at the moment I purchased them because of the big cash back! I always check Ibotta offers any store I shop!

Ibotta Rebate issue and resolution
August 8, 2025

I had a rebate clipped in my app, but when I went to make the purchase, it was no longer on my list. I reached out to support, and Francis D. Was fantastic—he looked into the issue and was able to credit the rebate amount to my account. Thank you for your attention to detail and for helping find a great resolution!

Great customer service
August 8, 2025

99% of the time, everything registers as it's supposed to... But, on the occasion that there's a computer glitch, or a miscommunication between store & Ibotta, their customer service does their very best to make it right; they show genuine concern for the customer, they're patient & understanding, and allow you to explain your situation. They're also very good at providing lots of information to teach you how this program works. It's a great company that has saved me a bundle in "coupons" / cash back offers!

Questions resolved!
August 8, 2025

I had a multi item purchase that I did separate transactions for, When I scanned my receipts in I only got credited for one item (instead of all 5) As I used the chat to explain my situation I was properly informed on how to process this type of transaction. I now know how to do this The individual helping was professional, understanding, and polite. She resolved this situation along with instruction on future purchases. Thanks Aries

The usual. Missing money back.
August 8, 2025

If you use Any Bar or Any Liquor Store odds are you will have to jump through hoops to get your money! Buy two drinks they credit you for one. Buy two bottles of wine and they credit you for one. Sometimes none.

Loving Ibotta
August 7, 2025

I have been using I bought a for quite some time and really enjoy doing so. It is a nice way to get rewarded for items that I buy and use anyway. Would definitely recommend! I personally like to save my earnings up and treat myself to something big. Very easy to get gift cards and there are many options to pick from. The few times I may have run into an issue. Customer service has always responded right away.
