kmill2692's Review of Ibotta
Reviewed on 9/6/18 9:30 PMThis is the most regrettable app download. In order to earn the cash back you have to buy specific products. If they are not products that your family normally would use or want, what is the point? Also I have been getting multiple emails each day from Ibotta, even though I have deleted the app and unsubscribe from their mailing list four times now.
Boiled potatoes's Review of Ibotta
Reviewed on 9/6/18 8:49 PMI’ve been an avid Ibotta client for about six years now, maybe even longer. I have made hundreds of dollars through their app. My issue is the way that they handle issues now. I have had problems in the past (maybe two or three ever), and my problems were always solved right away. Now as of this year, you have to go through the app and submit a ticket and receive a generic email back a few days later. Instead of acknowledging your mess up Ibotta, it’s been nearly two months now and I have yet to receive an answer. Very shady on your part!

Acer587's Review of Ibotta
Reviewed on 9/5/18 6:45 PMI have been using this app for a while. Aside from some glitches early on, I really haven’t had any issues until today. I always get a Walmart gift card once I get to $20 and today that option is not available. I don’t know when they took away the Walmart e-gift card and I don’t shop at any of the other retailers. Since Walmart is close to where I live and the $20 is helpful for my cat food/cat litter that’s the only card I get. I tried to find someplace that I could contact customer service, but there’s nothing. My only option is to get a gift card from another retailer and give it away. Very disappointed and will be deleting my ibotta account once I redeem for a gift card. Some customer service would be nice. Or maybe just a way to contact someone about any issues. The help menu is a joke.

Reviewed on 9/4/18 9:04 PMSo far, I’ve had to send emails (and products were denied) for super “easy” in-store purchases. At this point, after 10 days of waiting for approval of products from Amazon, I have no desire to bother with this app. Very frustrating and definitely not worth my time. There are many apps that reward for purchases that are much more reliable. BTW, my online purchases have all been long-delivered and the in-store purchases were for items that absolutely could not be mistaken for any other size/type, etc. Beware.

Reviewed on 9/3/18 10:06 PMI do not recommend on getting this app to try to save a couple pennies here in there. I have downloaded the app purchase what products I have specifically chosen at each store. You have to scan the barcode of almost every product and if the barcode does not match with what the store has registered with it then you will not get your money back. Some stores don’t allow you to upload a receipt you have to have with your rewards card. If you don’t know about this beforehand we buy the products in your out that money.When you try to collect your money. If you missed typed your email by N in instead of an M on the email address you will not get a response from customer service.Then you are out of that money as well. Wasted almost a year of trying to save up money for rebates with no success of collecting any of it. So I reiterate it is not worth the time the pennies the headaches.

user kroger's Review of Ibotta
Reviewed on 9/29/18 12:31 AMThere’s lots of variety in the types of offers and the cash out is very convenient. The random “free” offers are also a neat way to try out new products that I never considered trying. It’s also a good way to redeem rebates on products that I would normally purchase anyway. One caution for future users is that some offers can randomly disappear even after activating in the app, so check apps for the specific offer before purchasing items. In general, one of the better rebate apps out there. A few areas of improvement: -when searching offers in the main section (under search retailer and offers) the offers sometimes don’t show which stores it is valid at. So I have to recheck under each store to verify that offer is valid at a certain store. -bonus offers like redeem 30 for 10 can be unrealistic at times. -some offers disappearing before redemption or expiration date makes shopping with the app in my mind a little more time consuming

Reviewed on 9/28/18 3:44 AMI just updated the app, and I dislike the new version. What happened to the expiration dates and times? Not knowing EXACTLY when an offer is expiring is not fair to app users, especially since offers frequently expire in the middle of the night. I will likely use the app less because of the lack of specific expiration info. It's already frustrating enough to not be able to redeem offers because the UPC code doesn't match even though it should or because the store doesn't carry many of the products that qualify for rebates.

It’s hard to communicate with customer care. They reply in 7 days or more. You can’t withdraw your money at one shot. It will give you error once you link with PayPal or Venmo or even gift cards.

Tbloom64's Review of Ibotta
Reviewed on 9/24/18 2:19 AMI have been using Ibotta for a few years and have earned several hundred dollars. It is fun to watch the cash accumulate and then turn it into a Starbucks gift card or a wide variety of other options which now include putting the cash into your Venmo account...CASH!! I have found new products that I may never have tried without the offer showing up in the app. Downsides..you have to scan the items in the store before you buy to make sure they match. There are also items that are offers but the store does not carry that item. Online purchases and travel purchases are very difficult to redeem and take a ridiculously long time to credit to your account. The customer support not very good. The response time is long and inefficient. I had an issue that went up and back about five times with a different agent each time over a period of about six weeks. Very glitchy but the basic grocery store items are generally easy to redeem.

AmyBburg's Review of Ibotta
Reviewed on 9/22/18 1:41 PMI had over $60 in rewards on the app. I selected to withdraw $25 in the form of an Amazon gift card, not realizing I hadn’t updated my email (yes, that’s my fault). I recently transferred jobs and do not have access to a previous email address. My gift card was sent to the old email account. Now, the app will not allow me to update with my new email so I can withdraw my rewards. I have followed all steps for contacting Ibotta staff at least five times in the past several weeks to see if they could help. No one responds. However, I am able to see that one of my help “tickets” has been closed, without anyone ever offering to help. I use the money saved on the app to purchase much needed items for students in my school. By cashing out with gift cards, I can purchase snacks to send home on the weekends, clothing, and toiletries for students who’s families are unable to purchase these things...So, I am extremely disappointed that I cannot get any help to (at the very least) cash out the funds we’ve already earned. I’m sad to say, I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS APP! And, if you already have the app... don’t waste your time contacting Ibotta when issues arise! 😠

Not worth the time of weeding through offers to not get anything back. It was a great app, sad to see it dying out.

Reviewed on 9/21/18 9:55 PMNo welcome bonuses. I don’t know what welcome means to ibouta but to get any bonus you have to use the app for what seems like months to earn just $10’sign up bonus . Things I never buy hardly. I might earn .60 in 6 months so the welcome bonus ya never came . They want u to sign up friends for more “welcome bonus” lol That’s not a welcome. So to earn $5 from them they have to earn money which might never happen

Reviewed on 9/21/18 7:14 PMLove this app and have saved a bunch of money in the past few years .... but I’m about to stop using it . WHAT HAPPENED TO THE CUSTOMER SERVICE DEPT.?!?!?! I have had an issue with a referral and have been trying to get it resolved for 4 weeks ! Yes, 4 weeks ! All I receive are auto responses that do not even mention my issue I wrote to them about . I also received a auto bot message apologizing for the delay in responding to emails. C’mon if you are THAT busy , hire more staff . It would be nice to have a customer service number to call and speak to a human ! Waiting 4 weeks for some one to get back to you is ridiculous in my opinion and just plain awful ....
Pina Records's Review of Ibotta
Reviewed on 9/21/18 6:16 AMI’ve been using ibotta for a couple of months already; at the beginning everything was so simple and I had no problems at all using the app. Suddenly offers started to become hard to achieve since products where changing so often and brands that I usually buy where gone. For example I use to get offers on bananas, dairy products such as milk ANY BRAND water etc, and then they just don't show anymore. Then I started having trouble with the offers like I would scan my receipt and will not show any offers, I would select my offers manually and scan my products and it will be automatically on hold just to get a NO OFFERS FOUND message when I clearly chose the right offer and the right product.... so frustrating. I tried sending a message to customer service and nothing yet. I guess it will just keep acting up like that with no future fixes.

Reviewed on 9/21/18 5:22 AMYou’ll never be able to completely stop them from sending you emails. Even if you unsubscribe all, even if you ask them to delete your account. They will still reserve the ability to retain your information for “legal purposes” and you will receive their policy updates and similar SPAM from them in perpetuity. Aside from that, the app is buggy and clunky. The whole operation is built on bait and switch tactics to keep you strung along but never actually getting substantial enough rebates to cash out. Plenty of arbitrary rules and policies seem designed to provide ample cover for them to deny you payment for any number of reasons. I’d be willing to bet that they have a department of psychologists and behaviorists working with their UI/UX teams to manipulate users into continuing to participate in offers while diminishing the likelihood of them actually earning enough to pay out.

-ten's Review of Ibotta
Reviewed on 9/20/18 7:38 PMYou get money back but customer service is a joke! They take a week minimum to reply to you and then “close” your case even though nothing is resolved. This has happened twice to me. The extra bonuses are nice when you actually get them. The friend referral is awesome when your friend signs up with an email. But if they sign up through their Facebook even with clicking on your link you don’t get credit and the customer service once again doesn’t help you. If you’re using it to get a little extra money here and there it’s great! But once you try getting the bonuses, referrals, etc to boost yourself don’t be surprised when they don’t help you and leave you hanging. I’ve been s****** out of at least $55 now. Also make sure you go back and check your receipt before you hit send. More often than not items are missing that I then have to highlight and scan the barcode to prove I bought it.

Supposedly transfers will take no more than 24 hours, but I am yet to see this money in my PayPal and it has disappeared from my Ibotta account. I emailed them a couple of days after I tried to transfer and eventually received a generic, “we will look into it response,” they are supposedly busier than normal and it will take longer for a response, sure... Still no money in paypal or response from Ibotta and it has been a week since I emailed them. I was saving that money for a “rainy” day and that day has come but the money just disappeared... what a waste of time looking through all the products and scanning for nothing only to be left high and dry when I needed the money I had saved.

Reviewed on 9/2/18 5:07 PMRead the recent reviews that are not asking for teammates (those are the only good reviews lately). The reviews that this is a scam and will eventually lock you out of your account is true. I bought things specifically based on the rebates I would receive and now my account has money in it that I cannot withdraw. ‘Customer care’ team does not respond at all. So where is the money going exactly, since I can’t access it?? I read the BBB reviews and they are bad and TRUE! I will be filing a complaint there cause this is just to warn others. They will let you have your 25 cents you earn, but not larger earnings. Somehow that’s when it goes wrong for everyone. But if it’s all going in their pocket based on our spending, they will need to be looking at a civil class action suit.

All of my mobile shopping goes through ibotta first if it’s there and generally it is. I have received over $850 dollars in a year and a half! If I only get back 20-25 dollars in a month it’s only because I didn’t put much effort into it. No other app gives back this much money!

Reviewed on 9/19/18 4:54 PMI can’t believe how many reviews are complaining about free money! When I first started using the app, it was more work having to scan each item; however it is very rare now that I have to scan any. The offers vary because of the manufacturers NOT ibotta. It is their choice what to offer and where to offer it. I can go weeks without any offers that match my needs, but that’s ok because it’s all still FREE money. People need to chill out and quit complaining. I love it and have earned over $500 in the past couple of years for only scanning my receipts.

Reviewed on 9/19/18 3:40 PMI’ve been using this app for almost 3 years now. I have yet to hit $100 total cash back in 3 years. I used to live the app. But now, The item selection keeps getting worse. There used to always be things like milk, bread, eggs, shredded cheese any brand. Things people use on a regular basis. Now there is only things like almond milk any brand. And the any item selection went from 0.25 to 0.10 & it’s now for entering to win a shopping spree (which is useless). Lately, I would spend $200 at the grocery store & only be able to cash in on the $0.25 any item. This is why I deleted the checkout 51 app. The selections were not worth the effort & it was hard to accumulate any savings. I’m very disappointed in Ibotta & I hope I don’t have to deactivate this account as well.

I sent multiple emails (since they do not offer any other form of customer service no telephone number) and no one replies. When I should have earned credit on some products I did not receive the credit because the receipt was not clear and suddenly by the time I received the notification, the product was “expired”. Even though it was valid during the time of purchase. The idea of this program is great but perhaps you may want to try a different app.

Reviewed on 9/18/18 10:07 PMI’ve been an Ibotta user for a few years. I gave them 5 stars previously. I hope I’m wrong, but I feel they are becoming like several of the other cash back apps. In the last few months, I have experienced receipt submissions not going through or rejected, even though the product meets the requirements. Customer service takes awhile and there is an automatic message something to the effect of “we are experiencing longer than normal resolution times....” Case in point: I requested 2 gift cards back on 9/3. Never received them. They aren’t in my spam. My email address is correct in Ibotta. Customer service, while on top of things before, no where to be found. My recommendation: redeem a $10 gift card and see what happens. Maybe you won’t be so unlucky as I have been recently.

Reviewed on 9/15/18 4:27 PMI don’t know what’s going on but you have first removed 75 cents then came back and removed another 75 cents and now you removed $1. I do resubmit the same receipt but only for items I forgot to add to the previous submission of the receipt. I don’t try to redeem the same items I’ve already submitted, except I did try the wet ones item because it was redeemed and approved then you came back and removed after already approving and adding the 75 cents. I did add the receipt again because you did not respond to the issue and I knew I had followed the restrictions for the wet ones and should have earned the 75cents. And If you’re going to just remove what you offered and I earned by making purchases, I’ll quit using and recommending your app. I’ve been a huge supporter but now you’re basically giving money and then reaching back into my wallet and taking it back. The amount of work and time I spend on your app and recommending it to people at the store and to family and friends, this is extremely disrespectful to a supporter of more than a year. So frustrating that what used to be a good worthwhile app is now an app that gives then comes back on their word and removes the earned rewards.

KRKapple's Review of Ibotta
Reviewed on 9/14/18 4:02 PMThis app could be so much better than it is, so I’m getting very close to deleting it. The rewards for offers have gone down. Some offers are only available at certain stores that I don’t shop at. Many brands I use never are in the app. I save more from individual store apps (CVS, Rite Aid, 7-11) emails from the stores and the weekly coupons I get in my mail than I do with ibotta. Right now, the only reason I’m keeping it on my phone is I’m very close to cashing out again, though getting there is taking forever. Unless something changes, once I reach the $20 this app is likely gone.

Jgc27's Review of Ibotta
Reviewed on 9/14/18 12:26 PMThe newest updates aren’t for the greater good. The app used to pull in only the shopping item keywords you were searching for, now it pulls in anything that might be roughly related to that item. A search for “beans” is currently pulling up pre-packaged garlic and Coleman’s mustard powder. A search for eggs is pulling GoVeggie chips and dozens of cheeses and milk. Not helpful and makes me want to delete the app!

Reviewed on 9/13/18 8:38 PMWhat is this BS? Going from .25 to .10 is BS. It was never good but I did get a quarter back on any item or any recipe sometimes. Now all they do is a chance at a drawing or .10? It is not worth going to all the trouble for no money. All of the drawings like this are a scam. Just a way to get you to look at the rebates (which Ibotta seldom has anything I use) for which they never have to pay any money. I am deleting this app that is totally useless to me. Don't waste your time with this useless app.

I recommend the app to people who buy a lot of groceries - it’ll eventually save you money! You can also get cash back for online purchases. Although, most of the deals require you to have bought name brand items. It’s still worth it!

Shegotsauce's Review of Ibotta
Reviewed on 8/6/18 2:41 PMThe idea of this app is much better than the actual app. It’s so time consuming to have to look through endless lists of “offers” which coincidentally are not for any items I actually ever buy. Oh, but wait...here’s a $0.25 offer for “any” of these items or purchase. Problem is, the app always finds a reasons to not give you the offer, ie: receipt is blurry/illegible, or offer was redeemed on another receipt. Bull crap! I had written customer support on many occasions, then waited more than a week in some instances only to be told that I would not be given my offer. Also, you have to “add” offers before you upload the receipt, which is so time consuming. Realistically it would be easier to take a picture of your receipt and have the app find your offers. But who are we kidding? The app works to benefit the advertisers, not the consumers. After using the app for a few months and uploading tons of receipt I am nowhere near the required minimum of $20 to redeem my gift card so I’m going to deleted this g** awful waste of time.

I sure hope you didn’t already drink and toss that $5coconut water. Customer service is impersonal and unhelpful.

coffeemakesmesleepy's Review of Ibotta
Reviewed on 8/30/18 6:09 PMIt’s quite basic functionality which can be frustrating. You just have to accept the fact that you can’t resubmit a receipt. You just have to keep retrying and hope your deal doesn’t expire before they respond. Don’t worry about them taking feedback seriously, their reps will direct you to a FAQ to show you how to start over. And why would anyone want to use e-receipts? You could screen capture a retailers e-receipt where they currently prompt you to take pictures, but no. It must be too much effort to have these retailers accept their own e-receipts and develop any app changes. Being in contact with them is enough for me to say ‘no thanks’...

Reviewed on 8/3/18 6:14 AMI’ve been using this app for a few years now, and I’ve received several hundred dollars, so I’m mostly happy. A few complaints: - most of the rebates these days are only available at Walmart. I feel like there used to be more generic “Any Item” offers and offers available at multiple stores. I’ve also noticed that there are offers that are worth more at Walmart - you might get 50 cents for a brand of toothpaste at Target and $1.50 at Walmart. - the wait time for mobile offers is inexplicably long. 75 days? I have to wait two and a half months to get my rebates when I shop online? It’s just not worth it. - you can’t rely on the expiration dates on offers. Offers will disappear long before their expiration date. I’ve been shopping with the app open in my hand, and by the time I get home, the offers have disappeared. I’ve started submitting receipts before I leave each store, which mostly solves the problem, but sometimes an item disappears while I’m standing in line and paying!

love to grocery shop's Review of Ibotta
Reviewed on 8/29/18 11:38 PMOverall, I like the app. The reasons I don’t give it 5 stars: customer service takes way to long to respond to issues. The app isn’t always friendly to give you your discounts & when you comply with all the receipt photos, scan barcodes, etc, it takes too long for them to get back to you. By the time they responded, which they asked for all the details again - some of the items had been eaten & the containers trashed. I shop Amazon all the time. I go through Ibotta to shop there - not one time have I ever received a rebate for Amazon. There is no way to distinguish what is Ibotta friendly on Amazon either. I use Ebates for online shopping now. When it’s good - it’s good. When it feels like I’ve worked really hard, paid close attention & should get a sizable reward - it’s disappointing.

Reviewed on 8/28/18 5:49 PMFor “any item” purchases, you were able to earn 25 cents minimum. Very recently however, they lowered it to 10 cents! It used to take me 2-3 months to earn a $25 gift card. Now it’ll take me a year! They must be offering better incentives elsewhere (online shopping?) that I haven’t discovered yet?!
Amvankirkkkkkkkk's Review of Ibotta
Reviewed on 8/28/18 5:35 PMThis app seems like a great idea, and provides awesome discounts and cash back options. I am trying to withdrawal for the first time, and due to creating the account with my old phone number I can not verify my account until I contact support for help. Have emailed them several times over the past two weeks with no response. I guess it is a great idea until it is time to withdrawal because they do not want to pay out.

Reviewed on 8/28/18 4:58 PMI would love to give this app 5 stars, but it is impossible for me to contact their support team. You can only contact them through their website by logging in, and even with my correct login credentials, it lists a former email address with an error message that I can’t be logged in, so I have no way of getting help to fix a problem. Dead end.
CierrB's Review of Ibotta
Reviewed on 8/28/18 3:10 AMNot happy at all with Ibotta. I emailed support SEVERAL times about changing my phone number, and after providing every phone number I’ve ever had since owning a cell phone, was told none of them matched my account and they couldn’t change my phone number for me to redeem my cash back. I find this hilarious because Ibotta is literally linked to my Facebook and I provided literally anything and everything they could possibly need and what do you know..... STILL no help. Such a scam and waste of time. It took support nearly a week to get back to me each time because of heavy volume... aka ripping more people off. SCAM SCAM SCAM. Stay far far away. I will make sure every friend I know that has had a bad experience leaves a 1 Star review until our issues are resolved.

Reviewed on 8/27/18 1:41 PMI had about $20 in my account, and one day see a promo for inviting 2 friends and receiving $50 ($5+$5+$40 promotion). Anyways one day I ask my friends to go use it, they do. One account I got a $5 credit for, the other one never even showed up the rest of the night (promo ended that night). I wake to an email saying: Your account has been suspended permanently or temporarily (I hate how they say that, it's like, we should have a right to know whether or not we're permanently banned). Then I contact support (still no response, it's been around 20+ Days so far). Then I go to twitter, without even knowing much of my problem they blocked me, I made another twitter, they blocked me. They are a fraud company. Never take on promotions, you're almost guaranteed to get banned.
ss.pawlus's Review of Ibotta
Reviewed on 8/27/18 1:22 AMI love using this app, but at times they don’t have any coupons that are useful for me. I’ve also noticed some of the coupons they offer the brand or quaintly of the product doesn’t exist. For example I use the Budweiser coupon often, but there is one for a 20 pack of Budweiser, which I have been unable to find in any store. The only reason I’m giving the app 4/5 stars is because of the lack of useful coupons at times and when they offer a coupon for a product that either doesn’t exist, or I can’t find at any of my local stores.

Reviewed on 8/26/18 3:19 PMSoon after I posted my last review, Ibotta fixed the issue of having to do multiple steps to redeem and I’m very happy with that. The only reason I am not giving it 5 stars, now, is because I hate that they list the same item over and over again in different categories, causing a lot of unnecessary scrolling. If they’d streamline it just a bit by grouping items by one category just one time, it would be perfect!

StephanieA12's Review of Ibotta
Reviewed on 8/25/18 8:39 PMI use this app primarily with groceries and going to Walmart, and I love that I can use it at Joann’s!!! Scanning the receipts when I get home is so easy! However, not every store is like that apparently. I knew Best Buy was one of their retailers, but with kids at home I didn’t get a chance to check the app for rewards before I left. Turns out, for Best Buy, you need to have the cashier scan a qr code before you pay to get your rewards!?! 😠 It makes sense, I guess, but I’m missing out on a huge reward because of my mistake. I wish they would let you have the option to scan your receipt, because again, when I am with my kids that do not stay still long, I’m not going to pull out my phone to check for possible offers. If the way to get cash back is to scan your receipt or take a picture of it, then I ask for consistency across retailers when possible. I will still use the app, but I know better now when going to a store I don’t normally visit.
YourNameHereX_________'s Review of Ibotta
Reviewed on 8/25/18 8:33 AMAs long as everything is going well, the company appears well. Just wait until their system doesn't issue you the credit you have earned (this has happened numerous times). There is NO way to speak with anyone. You need to find the area in the app to send them a request. You then wait for automated reply after automated reply asking you to resubmit things, or apologising for high customer service volume. I have been an active Ibotta user for five years ($495.81 in total cash back since Oct. 2013)). Each and every time there is a problem, they make sure that they wear you out with requests for you to do things (many times duplicated because they have not even read your replies. As of now, this time I initiated a request exactly one week ago. I have received three automated replies. The first two apologized for the delay. Today's automated reply told me too re-scan my items and resubmit receipts. I keep the receipts, but the $5.00 bonus they want me to resubmit has expired so I need them to issue me the money. So, it is now the second Friday to go by and I have not been contacted by a real person yet.

TMJan's Review of Ibotta
Reviewed on 8/23/18 12:03 AMIbotta seemed like a great way to “earn” a little cash back on purchases I made, but I’ve learned a few things since I opened my account about two years ago. 1. I used this mostly for grocery shopping, but the items you can get discounts on is very limited. At first, I thought, great we get to try new things. After we found a few new things that we like, those coupons disappeared. We were being forced to try more new things again and my family and my kids began complain. Soon, the coupons changed again and my kids groaned even more... Tired of the complaints, I began to use the app less and less. The next thing I knew, I was only qualifying for offers for the generic things (25 cents off any brand of milk), and eventually I only qualified for the 25 cents for submitting a receipt. 2. Then one day they began offering cash back on purchases at merchants threw the app. They even offered extra bonuses. “Yippee!” I thought and tried it out (it was a Groupon offer). Despite my excitement, I saw no cash back or bonus, and I checked every day for a week, but nothing was credited to my account. (groan) Maybe it’s not worth the headache and anticipation over getting x% back! Recently, I gave it another try. I clicked on the link for Office Depot in the app, filled my virtual shopping cart, and upon checking out, my troubles began. PayPal was my payment method. After authorizing my payment to Office Depot, I tried to submit my order (all done through the Ibotta app of course). However, it wouldn’t complete the order and stated that something was wrong with my payment. I then received an email from PayPal saying that the authorized payment had been submitted. What? Through the Ibotta app, my cart appeared full and it was stilI demanding payment. Not sure if my order had been submitted, I authorized the payment with PayPal again, but it wouldn’t submit, again. Then I received a second email from PayPal, stating that I authorized another payment to Office Depot. Frustrated, I decided to check my shopping cart on a computer. My shopping cart was filled with some of the items I had placed in it, but they all demanded that they be removed from my shopping cart because I had already purchased the max amount allowed (some items had been on sale). My phone then had a familiar ding. I had received two more emails: one from PayPal, stating the amount that they were going to pay Office Depot; and one from Office Depot, informing me of my order confirmation. I checked the Ibotta app. My shopping cart now looked similar to the Office Depot shopping cart on the computer. 🤦🏻♀️ I reluctantly exited the Ibotta app shopping experience and hoped they would be forwarded my order info. A week later, there had been no credits to my Ibotta account. 😩 I contacted Ibotta to fix the problem. Two weeks later they have finally responded to my issue by informing me that my order didn’t qualify for cash back because I used a coupon/discount, which I never did. The moral of my story is, if it seems too good to be true, then it is. This app is only good for money back on physical receipts and I don’t recommend using it for online shopping.

Cool, $0.50 back off a thing! A thing I can’t really see unless I read the fine print or click on the rebate, and I REALLY don’t want to click on every single rebate. And now each rebate sits in its own little box with a drop shadow and white space between it and the next rebate. This is lots of wasted space and the drop shadows are just distracting.

Reviewed on 8/21/18 1:44 AMThis app isn’t worth the time unless you purposely seek out their very specific deals in which case you’re not actually saving money because you wouldn’t normally be purchasing said items. On the rare occasion there are generic discounts on any brand of a certain product I’m only getting a few cents off per receipt. At this rate I’d get to my specific cash out amount sometime next year. I did splurge a little on some name brands that had discounts at the store I shop and the app told me to scan the barcodes. The barcodes won’t scan. I even tried different lighting thinking maybe that could be the issue. Nope. This app has been nothing but a hassle.

Over a month has gone by with no credit and support is not even looking at the emails, all I have received is the standard " we're busy". If you are pushing people to use their loyalty cards and you are not able to handle the influx of data from the store, then a user should be able upload a receipt. I am sure that there are some items that I will not get credit for, since so much time had passed and offers expire. My advice- read and actually respond to user's issues and get the loyalty portion fixed.

Reviewed on 8/19/18 3:23 PMNow this sounded great but... sign up bonus well you have to match that amount first to be able to quAlify for it then it states expires by the end of the year but you get messages it expires in a few days .... offers don’t work, purchased exactly what the description said but having to scan the barcode it stated no match, emailed support only to get msg we are very busy there will be a delay, after 10 days no answer. Looks like they hope you will forget when they ignore your msg. Also took a survey where it stated reward will be applied in 3 days, 5 days now nothing. All over be very mindful this app gets your full receipt which means they can analyze everything not only the items for bonuses plus the teamwork part your info might get passed on to someone you don’t want to know. Received a msg from the app... your friend xyzzy redeemed x amount today. This is complete transparency to this company about you and your friends

If I could send a picture with this I would...instead I’ll just add the item and it’s SKU number.

Zbjjjnvc's Review of Ibotta
Reviewed on 8/18/18 10:00 PMI used this app for the last couple of years but decided to delete it. The rebates with a loyalty card so often were not paid. I’d send a request with copies of the receipt and bar codes but usually just get a response saying they had a lot of request so it will take longer to get back to me. Or they would ask me for pictures of the receipts and bar codes although I attached them in my original request. I’d email back that they should have that information but then just get a response that since I didn’t provide them with the information my request was dropped. The last straw was when they gave me a rebate for an item I didn’t buy and I notified that I didn’t earn that rebate I got a response that they were experiencing high volumes of emails and they would get back to me in a few days. Then I couldn’t log into my account. I tried to reset my password and it would say it was accepted but still couldn’t log in. I assume they locked my account but no reason was given. I tried to email them again to find out why I got that same annoying response. Not worth the hassle for a few dollars a year.
outofspoons's Review of Ibotta
Reviewed on 8/17/18 8:54 AMI’ve been using this app for a few years now, and I’ve received several hundred dollars, so I’m mostly happy. A few complaints: - the wait time for mobile offers is inexplicably long. 75 days? I have to wait two and a half months to get my rebates when I shop online? It’s just not worth it. - you can’t rely on the expiration dates on offers. Offers will disappear long before their expiration date. I’ve been shopping with the app open in my hand, and by the time I get home, the offers have disappeared. I’ve started submitting receipts before I leave each store, which mostly solves the problem, but sometimes an item disappears while I’m standing in line and paying! - When you need support, it takes forever to receive a response. SCAN EVERY ITEM BEFORE YOU BUY IT TO MAKE SURE IT MATCHES THE OFFER, because if the item doesn’t match automatically, you’ll be waiting over a week to get a response from Support! - most of the rebates these days are only available at Walmart. I feel like there used to be more generic “Any Item” offers and offers available at multiple stores. I’ve also noticed that there are offers that are worth more at Walmart - you might get 50 cents for a brand of toothpaste at Target and $1.50 at Walmart.

Reviewed on 8/17/18 4:37 PMOverall I like the app, but there have been several instances (especially lately) where I make purchases that I may not otherwise make in order to get a bonus; but then the purchase doesn’t get counted toward my earnings and the bonus doesn’t get added. It’s really frustrating when you follow the stipulations and the rebates aren’t added. This is compounded by the lack of customer support when I try to follow up by submitting a ticket. I just keep getting messages that they are experiencing high volume and will get back to me.... but it’s been over a week. 🤷🏻♀️

terriergal's Review of Ibotta
Reviewed on 8/16/18 4:28 PMA year+ later tech support is still no better. Downgrading my originally high rating for this app because the support is useless. Any size any brand rebates are rejected for no reason. App does not make it easy to submit items that should qualify but come up as “doesn’t match”. My app used to work that way (offering to have me submit items that should qualify) but had stopped ages ago. It’s nearly impossible to find now, plus usually they pretty much auto-reject the submission. Then there’s no way to submit appeals when tech support just blows you off. Which they do regularly. I have been having so much trouble trying to communicate with tech-support about the bugs I am encountering. There is a fresh pork product rebate that continually rejects products that should qualify. I submitted requests to have these UPC's included in the rebate but in the meantime I decided on purchasing another product that was already in their system. All of my requests to have such UPC's added to their rebate were rejected for no apparent reason. When I questioned this they thought I was asking for credit for these UPC's even though I had already claimed the rebate on a different product. They could not seem to understand that I was asking why the UPC's were rejected in the first place. About five days later I submitted some of those UPC's again and they were excepted this time. No explanation. Now search results are not coming up for products that I know are active rebates. I asked a question about this and they thought I was asking for a rebate on those items. No I'm asking why the app is malfunctioning. Then when I had three different tickets with three different questions submitted they decided to combine them all into one ticket so that everything could be more confused. Brilliant. With that being said when the app actually works it is very handy and I have collected a lot of rebate cash and found some products I like that I probably would not have tried otherwise.

ebbgy's Review of Ibotta
Reviewed on 8/14/18 7:17 PMI was skeptical about Ibotta when I first heard about it (such is the nature of apps that say they will save/give you money), but I am happy to see that it’s not a scam. I have been using the app for about two months, and earned my first $20 about 3 weeks ago. As someone who prioritizes grocery shopping and cooking over eating out, I think this will be a helpful app to have, because it’s nice to find deals and even earn a little money back on one of my largest expenses. I will say that Ibotta would be absolutely perfect for someone who prefers name-brand products, buys a lot of packaged food, or has to feed a family. I only have to feed myself, and often shop at local co-ops, buy in bulk, and choose store brand products, so I haven’t been earning money very quickly, although the bonuses do help a lot! Overall, I’m really satisfied with the addition Ibotta has made to my weekly shopping practice and would definitely recommend it!
Luvbug27's Review of Ibotta
Reviewed on 8/14/18 6:45 PMI recently contacted them in regards to my phone number changing on my account. Let me tell you this... If you ever change your phone number, do not scan another receipt after that. If you have money to withdraw before changing your phone number, I suggest you withdraw your cash FIRST bc after you change your number you won’t be able to withdraw your cash that you’ve earned. The support team is a JOKE. They will not handle your issues. They sent me an email about a delay & then sent me an email to rate the support team... Confused bc they never resolved my issue. All I needed was for my new phone number to be linked to my Ibotta account since that’s the only way you can verify (which is stupid). They failed to take me serious. I’m deleting this app and I’ll use another app instead. I emailed them to delete my account since they failed to fix my issue. What’s the purpose of having a support team or care team if no one is working on fixing our accounts. I refuse to invite another friend or scan another receipt. Oh but wait... I never got my credit for my friend referral & they won’t give me my rebate for my dole pineapple juice I just purchased on the 7 of this month. Go to the BBB AND READ THEIR COMPLAINTS FOR IBOTTA

DarthVaider808's Review of Ibotta
Reviewed on 8/14/18 3:26 PMThis app is beyond trash. If you take the time to read some of the reviews what people are saying is true. I earned $84 and have been trying to withdraw it for weeks. Customer service with Ibotta is trash, they take weeks to write you back and then make up some lame excuse as to why you can’t withdraw your funds. They get paid by the companies when we shop so why should they get their funds and me not get mine. I did eventually return some items because I’m not letting Ibotta get paid from my shopping and not get my kick back. They are basically stealing. I can get all the items for cheaper online and cut them out as the middle person entirely and not have to deal with this waste of time company. Enough people will get burned and this company will go down. Someone should file a class action lawsuits against these people because if they take $10 for example from 1,000 people that’s $10,000 for them. They have Elmore then 1,000 users and they took $84 from me. Save your time hard earned cash and stay away from these headache filled crooks.
Momocappy's Review of Ibotta
Reviewed on 8/14/18 1:21 AMPROBLEM: Too long to read: Bought products. Sent photo. Got rejected due to a ‘blurry’ photo of the receipt. Try to resend with a better photo only to be told the product i bought was incorrect. (Went back to store to purchase correct product). Rejected again. Repeat. Actual Review: So my current experience is its a tad of a hassle. It IS possible to earn back money (if you have paypal or venmo, it deposits it there. A lot of confirmation to go through, but so far seems real. Waiting on my bank) NOW if your schedule isnt as free as mine, the app can be frustrating. Naturally, in order to gain money you have to buy SPECIFIC brands and sometimes specific types. For instance the app might only count your purchase if you buy a snack box that has each snack individually packaged, as opposed to buying the regular box. THIS IS WHEN IT GOT FRUSTRATING. There is a minimum amt of money you have to earn before you can get the money. Its $20. And on top of that, most items only give $1 or less back. Which means spending a lot on items you more than likely wouldnt buy. However, thats okay. What i got very angry at was this. They had a BOGO deal. You buy ketchup heinz alongside Mayonnaise Heinz and they will give you $4.50. Which is cool cause thats way more than your typical $0.25. I sent the photo of the receipt. Followed the steps involving scanning the barcode of your product and waiting some 12 hours for the process to be approved. It gor rejected. Why? Cause the receipt didnt show certain things ‘clearly.’ So i go to resend it. But it wont let me because the Ketchup is the wrong product. What was wrong? I bout Heinz Ketchup but the BOGO package says ‘simply heinz.’ My mistake. So i go back to the store (this is where the flexible schedule helps) return the products and buy the correct one. Repeat. Send in receipt. Scan barcodes. Wait. Receipt rejected. For a different reason, but not something that shouldve been an actul issue cause its how ive sent all the receipts. so i go through redoing it to make the photo clearer. And the ketchup wont scan. Cause its wrong. I had to buy “heinz ketchup sweetened with honey” Which leaves me with $10 spent on two items that YES i would eventually use, But did not need to buy this instant.

Reviewed on 8/14/18 11:21 AMLet me begin by singing iBotta’s praises - it really does work. I have happily used this app for a couple of years now and made about $150 overall. Ordinarily I’d give it a 4.5 star review (only docking for the tendency it has to leave items off when you scan your receipt.). Unfortunately iBotta no longer fits my lifestyle - when our local Walmart started offering grocery pick up our quality of life (and budget!) improved exponentially. I am devoted now, but was so heartbroken to see items purchased through pickup can’t be redeemed. I can’t really understand why, since an itemized receipt is offered with online ordering and pickup and Walmart.com is eligible. I hope to learn iBotta begins to support grocery pickup orders, I’ll come running back with bells on.

On average I’m earning $1.00 a month and that’s only because you get $0.25 for any receipt item every week.

MSU-Alum's Review of Ibotta
Reviewed on 8/10/18 7:08 PMI loved this app to start! Besides waiting for online purchase rebates for months and having items purchased in store not accepted that completely meet the requirements it’s a great app. Their customer service is absolutely horrible. I emailed regarding an issue and opened a ticket 2 1/2 weeks ago and never received a response except an email asking how I liked how they handled my ticket. Umm, the one you never responded to in the first place?! And now a rebate that was for $24 shows processed instead of pending and I never received the money. The particular item was ordered online when I could have just went to the store and bought it but I figured to save $24 I can wait a few weeks for it. So now, if I don’t get the rebate all the wait was for nothing! I submitted a ticket for that too. And will keep submitting new tickets for both issues over and over and over until I get a response. It’s ridiculous!

That way I wouldn’t have to open the app and search for my favorite shop every time. Also, I do shop Target a lot, but shopping Target through the app doesn’t allow for the drive up pick up option available at target.com and on the actual Target app. One other thing is that I order groceries online using Walmart’s grocery app which does not provide a receipt with barcodes, and so then I’m not able to claim coupons for products that Ibotta has coupons for because I don’t receive a regular store receipt. If these things can be fixed, I would easily give the app 5 stars.

aceleyva's Review of Ibotta
Reviewed on 7/31/18 12:13 AMSo basically they advertise a bunch of products and have a huge list of reasons why the will deny a rebate. Rebates are low (e.g. 25¢). I wasted too much time with it. They would want me to resubmit “blurry” receipts (they were always readable). Many stores/bars/restaurants don’t itemize receipts at the level they want. Multiple times I took a picture of the receipt and the beer I drank. Rejected. At this point I’m convinced they are getting money for these purchase but not honoring rebates. When I emailed them asking why the kept rejecting my valid receipts they deactivated my account with no warning. (This also means you loose all the money you accrued.) Use at your own risk and pull out your money ASAP because they will close your account if they feel like it. I feel like I was the customer the wanted: tried lots of new liquor, including Glen Fiddich last month... it’s absurd that they would close my account.

Reviewed on 7/30/18 9:45 AMI can't watch videos for the "any brand rebates" so I can't redeem these *update* My husband is in the military and we had to move to another country. I didn't have enough money to withdraw, got a notice from Ibotta that they're going to start charging me until my balance is zero, and I can't even open the app to see if they changed anything to give me the possibility to do anything with the money I earned. I started using ibotta when I could transfer only $5 to a gift card or my account...last time I used it they had increased this number. So disappointed they have changed :(

Southern 2016's Review of Ibotta
Reviewed on 7/30/18 3:52 PMI have been an Ibotta user for along time, despite hearing from others about their issues ranging from locked accounts to poor if any customer service response, I had never had a negative experience. Sadly all good things must come to end, I have been unable to withdraw my earned money for over a week, I followed the policy and sent a help request. I received an auto response citing a 48 hour response time. Today is day 7, and I have still not been helped, I still can’t access my money. I am extremely disappointed and frustrated. I suggest looking for other money saving apps, we have choices. Poor customer service is unacceptable.

Feyth Sindarin's Review of Ibotta
Reviewed on 7/29/18 5:18 PMI was enjoying this app until, not long after I accumulated $40, I suddenly can’t login to the app. I received no notice of my account being locked (which would shock me, as the only submissions in the past month have been automatic through use of my connected loyalty cards). When I reset my password using the provided link, I can’t login with the new password either. My app version is current. I tried to contact support, but the link for support takes you to the login screen, creating an endless loop of your technical issue is a login problem. I’m at a loss. I would rate the app 4 stars when its working, but 1 Star since it’s not and since there is no way to contact anyone to address the problem (except, perhaps, by posting here). UPDATE 07/29/2018 Still no response, account still not working. It appears as if the account was simply deleted with no notice. I have no way to access the money I had accumulated. I am giving the customer care team 7 more days to contact me, and if I receive no adequate response, I will add my voice to the existing 564 formal complaints with the Better Business Bureau to see whether the BBB can facilitate a resolution.

I don’t think this is user friendly at all I’m clicking tons of offers but nothing explained what to do next? I’ve wasted so much time now trying figure this s***** thing out that I figure I would waste some of your time letting you know. Maybe improve whatever this app is trying to do so it makes sense would help. Maybe my phone? Possible. How about a guide on how too? Great idea 👍🏼

Reviewed on 7/29/18 11:31 PMIt takes me so many times to attempt to upload my receipt! The app continually crashes. There are weeks where my time expires to scan my receipt because the app crashes. Maybe it’s because I have a long receipt. But then if you cannot make the app work with a long receipt don’t bother offering the option. I’m currently on my 15th try to scan in two parts and have yet to be successful. Last week after several attempts the app never recognized the items that I checked that were purchased. It’s so much harder than it should be !! I’m not sure it’s worth it after today’s unsuccessful scans
no gift cards here's Review of Ibotta
Reviewed on 7/29/18 10:52 PMI was using the app as it seemed a great way to save and earn while doing it. I shopped, I took pictures of my receipts and sent them to them all very easily. Ran into trouble however when I tried to redeem for a gift card as you do it get cash back....... or at least I couldn’t find where I had that option. I purchased my gift cards with my points and watched as my points were taken away. I at no time actually received any gift card. They never tell you if they are mailing it to you, emailing it to you, texting it to you..... nothing. I waited a couple weeks to see what would happen. Nothing! I sent their customer service online a message that they never responded to on two different occasions. So I stopped using the app waiting to see what would happen. I finally received an email wanting me to come back as they noticed I’d stopped using the app. I sent another email explaining why and asked what they were going to do to make this right..... again no response. So I believe there are retailers receiving the feedback as to what we are and aren’t purchasing but there seems to be no benefit to the consumer. I’ve basically told them when they respond to my questions and give me the gift cards that my points were taken to purchase that I would consider using they app again. No response. Makes me think nobody is listening at all. Can’t see a reason to use the app.

I earned $11.00 from ibotta in my last Walmart pick up order, but they refused to honor my email receipt. My local grocery store just began a pick up service as well, I'm assuming I'll have the same issue with the receipt. Bye bye ibotta. :(

Reviewed on 7/19/18 9:06 PMI have a lot of trouble getting it to read the QR code on receipts. Or on packaging so there’s no way for me to submit my stuff because if you choose receipt and it doesn’t find any thing then you have to scan the QR code on the product and if it won’t scan it because the app doesn’t work right then you can’t submit it either way. Plus every time I try to redeem my money for a card I have to email Ibotta to get it because it never sends it to me.

Reviewed on 7/19/18 11:18 PMLove this app. It is so simple to earn a little extra spending money on things you normally buy or want to try but don’t have a coupon for. The only reason I’m giving it 4 stars is because it’s hard to give feedback within the app. My only complaint is it’s so frustrating seeing the same items listed in all the categories when I select view ‘All’. I should only see an offer once in this category not several times so I’m not scrolling through offers forever.
BlazedTigress's Review of Ibotta
Reviewed on 7/18/18 6:55 PMGreat money making app earned from “rebates”.....I've had this app for over a year and have collected close to $300. My one and only issue is Ibotta’s support which can only be reached via email which is equivalent to snail mail. To update the information on your account, you have to contact their support team. The emails say 48 hours turnaround but thats every blue moon. Once I replied to their email (which it stated to do so) they sent me, but I never even got a reply to it or even a confirmation of receiving it. So I had to submit another email which meant I was stuck back in que.

I love the actual app. HOWEVER, if you have any issue with your account WHATSOEVER, you are never going to get it fixed. No phone number to call, only an email or a “ticket request” that you can submit. I have emailed 4-5 times and submitted multiple tickets for one problem over the past 2-3 weeks and have yet to get a response other than “we are receiving more inquiries than normal please give us 48 hours to respond”.

TINA G. 91965's Review of Ibotta
Reviewed on 7/18/18 1:07 PMI have had the APP for several years. I loved it! Lately, it has not been working. Most of the time I am not given credit for items purchased at several local grocery stores. I have had to contact customer service every time. This is very time consuming, frustrating, and it takes customer services weeks to resolve. You have to take pictures of every thing and the receipt (which is a pain after having to scan every item in the first place). Customer service says the delay is because more people are using the APP. It is actually because the APP is not working!!! You cannot talk to anybody and customer service never addresses the issues and when it will be fixed. They say it is a user error. Pretty sure I have been doing it the same way for years and all of a sudden it is not working. Maybe if you fix the bugs you will not be as busy. Not worth the headaches.

I like Ibotta but I just wish it offered more produce options and non-name brand items. As a recent college graduate, I’m trying to budget and manage my expenses. So paying .50 cents to a $1 more on pantry items, etc. that are name brand products isn’t ideal (for me at least). I think this app is great for a family household but offer so much savings for single households, in my opinion. I’d say the average amount I save in every transaction is around .50 cents.

LMR63's Review of Ibotta
Reviewed on 6/1/18 8:47 PMI have been using ibotta from when it first launched and basically all I could do was take pics of my receipts and hope I bought the right amount and sizes of items. This app has come a very long way. I absolutely love it and it’s one of the only originals I have kept since downloading it because it just seems to get better & better with time. My only complaint is that back when I started I shared it with everyone and they all joined with my Code and I see them on my team and every day there are at least a few people popping up saying that they got money back or saved. I thought this app was supposed to give you a percentage or something for getting other members to join but I haven’t gotten a thing and I know they joined using my code so I just don’t understand why I’d never even gotten a thank you. Oh well, I guess my thank you is that the app has come a long way and is by far one of the best in its class. So as for the app, it’s definitely high quality and has great deals. You can basically get things for free by the time you are done if you really pay attention and learn different ways to save along with the app. I definitely have and will continue to not only use, but recommend ibotta to everyone. It’s worth it to give it a shot. You’ll be hooked. I’m glad this wasn’t one of those apps that seemed like it would be great and then it’s gone. You can see over the years how hard they’ve worked to make this bigger & better in so many different ways, to make it user friendly and to give us so many more opportunities to save on so many different sites now. They definitely care and it shows. I can’t say enough about how good they really are and the money you’ll really save. It’s a win-win.

They even have it to where you can get cash back on hotel stays, Uber , Amazon and other mobile apps.. yes it’s $.50-$3.00 Cash back on everyday items that you would buy anyway so why not scan a receipt and get the cash back. The best part is once you get to at least $20.00, you can transfer to your pay pal or Venmo account or get one of their many gift cards. So far I’ve got back $247.52 just by using the app. And honestly after that first payout, you will never go into any store and not check the app before you buy. Yes it’s That addictive!!

This doesn’t really make sense to me; it seems like all deals should always apply to multiples of whatever item. Otherwise, it is a good way to save a little money as you shop.

greenrabbit3's Review of Ibotta
Reviewed on 5/28/18 6:48 PMThe app has been great... when it works properly. So far that’s maybe 50% of the time, so they have a long way to go in fixing the issues with it! For the items that the app is able to identify on your receipt, you can definitely collect a good chunk of change on it, about the same or more as a coupon would get you. For the items that the app struggles to identify, good luck ever getting the rebates on them. I’ve had to resubmit receipts multiple times, and I really hate hanging on to receipts for so long- I’ve missed out on several because I just scanned them and then threw them away. If only it could always be that simple... just scan it and throw it away!!! And it rejects the receipt submission (24-48 hours later) for the dumbest reasons; less than perfect lighting (it was always readable to me), a corner of the logo was cut off, they couldn’t find the item (yes, stores often abbreviate item names), there was a wrinkle in the receipt (not even in an area where items were listed), etc. Additionally, when I buy items to eat for lunch as an example, I have thrown an item container away before the receipt went through. So when the receipt is rejected, and then the app also can’t find that item on the re-scanned receipt, you can’t redeem on the item because you would need the barcode from the package. So overall, in the 6 or so months of use, this app has paid about $50, which is great! And ibotta happens to have a lot of items that I buy regularly, at places that I shop several times a week. Considering that the $50 isn’t even as much as I could’ve gotten if the app was fully functional, I’m staying optimistic. But that rebate is currently at the cost of your time and frustration on a regular basis. Up to you to decide if that’s worth it!

I just wish that they included more stores some of my local stores are not in the app or have very little items that qualify for purchases from those stores. Sometimes it’s annoying how Rebates disappear or don’t scan well, and some of them end at random times, say 2 AM, so when you are thinking you have 24 hours for the date mentioned, you really only have two hours on the said expiration day.
