I downloaded the app a few weeks ago. I made a couple of small purchases and things went fine. So, a few non-parishables we use were on the app. I decided to stock up and save. I followed all of the user requirements, did not exceed purchase item limits, my accounts were linked and went through Ibotta to order from walmart.com. I only have one account (ever) with Ibotta and only on one device. My reciept was electronic and same day. My account was immediately locked to "protect my rewards". The app says that when you purchase through walmart.com that the rewards are immediate as soon as the items are rec'd, and that you'll be able to withdraw within minutes. Still, Ibotta is keeping my account locked in order to "validate". My account had already been validated with the two small purchases a week prior and through me linking all of my banking apps, etc. That isn't the reason. In the end, it's false advertising, they are billing brands for coupon use but not paying the people using the coupons, and have very poor customer service as well. If they won't pay on time, or at all, then this is equal to a scam. Users beware.

Money, money
August 13, 2022

I'm not sure why people don't like this app. I love it. And I have contacted customer service with little effort. And they solved whatever my issue was. Just check on the list of items for the store you are at. Buy 1 of the items and you get rebates(money) back. Money back on items you are already going to buy. Who doesn't like cash back?. I personally have bought a few items that I have never tried because it was cheaper to buy because of the rebate. I suggest this app to everyone. So try it I'm sure you will like it.

Be VERY careful using this app. Offers are presented as if the purchase can be made at any store/market. You need to look CLOSELY at the offer to see the tiny logo of the ONLY place you can make the purchase. Otherwise, it won't count! Extremely misleading!

As a lifetime couponder and bargain hunter I enjoy Ibotta more for entertainment than the money earned. The time investment outweighs the financial gains but Ibotta is more fun than BINGO or those dumb scratch-off cards. 9

Great way to make a little extra money!
June 8, 2022

Ibotta is a great way to earn a little extra money! I downloaded it after a friend recommended the Ibotta app to me. My favorite part is the 'any item' cash back. I can buy any brand and get 10 cents back! My point of view is that I can get a little extra cash back for buying items I normally buy. Every little bit counts. With patience and persistence, it adds up over time! I would highly recommend Ibotta to friends!

Great App
May 23, 2022

I love Ibotta! It's super easy to do, The cash back offers are good. The only thing i dont like to much is that you have to go through the list of item and add them to your account before you scan your receipt then once scanned you add the items to that scanned receipt in order to get the cash back. I would prefer that once you scan your receipt the app find the items you purchased automatically but other then that I've earned over $76 in cash back so far its not a lot of money but it better then nothing just for a quick scan of your receipts. I always get the money sent directly to my PayPal account and the money gets transferred instantly no fee but has to be at least $20 You can also transfer to your bank or get a gift card. They also do bonuses a lot and offers like 2% cash back at certain stores which i love especially when there isn't any items on your receipt that quality you still earn that 2% cash back on your total purchase!

Fun to be rewarded!
May 15, 2022

I love using Ibotta! Hi combine getting cashback for products I see online and then I noticed that I can get cash back when I buy an item that is listed on Ibotta! I love it when I can get an item free after offer, BOGO or $ off. I appreciate my groceries/products even more! I am now in the $250 back club!

I love it when you can earn money when you go shopping. Helps with your grocery bill. What's even sweeter is when ibotta puts out a bonus so you can make more money

App doesn't work
March 21, 2022

The first day that I opened an account everything was working fine on my phone app. After I went out for shopping on the 3rd day, I was trying to open the app and didn't work. It was coming with an "error". Tried the next day, same thing. Tried the following day, same thing. Tried again today, still not working. So, I went and try it on my computer, and it won't let me in, nor any code was sent to my email. I clicked many times the resend bottom so I could get a code, but never send me any. By the way, I also checked my spam mail just in case. So, they offer 14 days from the day I open my account to have a free 5 dollars for the first shopping receipt, and 15 dollars if completed 9 shopping receipts in the 14 days period. Now I'm wondering if they are waiting for the 14 days to pass so they don't have to give what they offer or is it just a scam? Since I seem the other review, I totally believe in them now that I'm going through the same deal. This review should have negative five stars, that's what they deserve.

I love Ibotta
March 3, 2022

I have been using Ibotta since 2016. I've been using Ibotta twice as much in the last two years as I have in the prior four due to inflation especially since the pandemic. Both my husband and I are retired. And we basically coordinate our food budget on what is offered at Ibotta which has offered so many incredible rebates and bonuses it truly has enabled us to match store sales with Ibotta offers and making our food budget remain the same while even enabling a little stockpile of a few extra K-pods. This was our purchase yesterday. Gevalia and Maxwell House had a $2.00 rebate. Harris Teeter had them on sale for 4.99. So we got six boxes of magic beans of awesomness for 2.99 per box! That way we can pay for the sky rocketing gas prices to get to the store. No vacation for us this year. Let's go Brandon!
