Excellent customer service
February 12, 2026

The app generally works very well. On rare occasions there is a problem. Customer service replies promptly, politely, and accurately. Can't ask for more than that!

Delays at Kroger
February 12, 2026

I love to shop at Kroger but I hate shopping at Kroger with Ibotta. It's always such a delay on getting your credits for what you purchased. I bought two body washes on one receipt. Why would it take over 12 hours to get the credit applied? Just two delayed with Kroger. When I shop Walmart or CVS, it's immediately credited and applied.

Great app!
February 11, 2026

I appreciate the Ibotta app. I have earned several hundred dollars on it, which I use to buy gift cards for my mom. Whenever I have an issue of some sort and contact them, the people, e.g. James, whom I just corresponded with, are always helpful, friendly, and accommodating. Low stress, high reward! I highly recommend Ibotta.

Easy way to make extra cash
February 9, 2026

This app is and easy way to earn some cash back on things you normally buy. It's also good for trying new things. If there's a problem they tend to correct it in a timely manner.

Search trouble
February 9, 2026

This morning I checked the site before going shopping. I saw peanuts so I put those on my shopping list. When I was shopping, I couldn't find the peanuts on the site? I bought them anyway. Somehow, I got money back. Very confusing. But other than that I love it!

Great feesback
February 8, 2026

I had an issue where I uploaded a printed receipt and the app took the receipt and scanned my item offers but when it came time to get the cash, the money was rejected due to the receipt being on a printed paper and not a regular receipt. I reached out to ibotta to let them know that the store (kroger)in which I picked up my order from no longer gives out paper receipts for pickup orders. And i can't connect my kroger account to ibotta either. The store refused to give me a print out when I went in and asked for one also. I told ibotta team I'd have to return everything in the store and rebuy it just to get a print out. The ibotta team looked over my receipt and the offers I didn't get credited for and they went ahead issued a credit to my ibotta account. I truly appreciate their understanding and the credit and I hope they'll start allowing printed out receipts from stores that refuse to give one. They saved me a trip to the store and the return hassle. Thank you

Missing Rebates
February 7, 2026

Any time that I experience an issue with missing rebates or items not scanning correctly, I send a message to customer service and they are always willing to help by correcting the problem. Sometimes it can be a little confusing trying to explain what's going on but overall, the solution is fixed in a timely manner.
