If you’re not a current Ibotta user, NOW is the perfect time to sign up as they are offering a limited-time $10 bonus whenever you redeem your first rebate this month!

What’s New?

The updated app is faster and features more personalized offers with your favorite stores on the home screen – no need to sort through hundreds of items to find offers you want. Even sweeter, you can now redeem select rebates 2-3 times per receipt instead of one time only! Sweet!

Plus, you can now easily find the following buttons at the bottom of the app to quickly find what you’re looking for “Featured” with all the latest rebates, “Find Rebates” to search for a rebate, “Redeem” to submit a receipt, “My Rebates” with your saved offers and “Account” with all of your information.

Also, with the Ibotta update, you won’t need to scan product barcodes for most of your items as the app will automatically detect which rebates are on your receipt and verify the rebate in real time. The first retailer that will offer this feature is Walmart, with more stores to come!

It’s getting easier all the time to earn in new ways!

Use Ibotta to save beyond the grocery store with online rebates to stores like ebay, Groupon, Hotels.com, and even Jet.com!

With the increased app speed, the ability to find rebates you want faster, improved navigation, and the removal of the barcode scan, you’ll be able to shop, earn and save quicker than ever! WooHoo!

    Ibotta is awesome if you have not tried it. I shop mainly at target, Walgreens, CVS and local grocery stores and no joke – I have $342 in my account!! Well worth it! Consider signing up:

    I couldn’t get my (updated) app to work this morning. It just kept swirling. Excited to use it though!!

    • Erin

      Mine seems to be working OK this morning. I have yet to figure out how to submit for 2 of the same item. Hopefully it is more clear with the new app version. I’ve had to email customer care each time.

      • Lisa

        I had the same issue. Maybe this new update changed it, but before today, you had to change the quantity in step 2, when you have to scan the item barcode (step 1 being snapping pic of the receipt). If you verify the barcode in the store on the individual rebate page, then it only registers as having 1 item. You have to uncheck the item then rescan it. On the scan screen, the second “fine print” is for quantity, with a small plus sign to change it. I hope that makes sense. It was just an oversight on their part. But Ibotta is constantly evolving. I remember it in its infancy stage when there were only a handful of stores and rebates.

      • Mel

        You have to change the qty before you scan the UPC code. That way it makes you have to scan the bar codes for each item.

        I am annoyed though, that I had 2 offers just disappear as I was going to upload my receipt yesterday. Like I had just checked the bar codes IN the store. Got home and poof.. gone! They weren’t set to exp until after midnight. I think if an offer is unlocked and has a set exp date, it should stay that way!

        • Kevin

          100% agree. Similar situation…. waited a couple of hours to scan my receipt and offer was gone.

        • Joyce

          Yup, they’ve just been changing expiration dates at will and pulling offers….very irritating when you’ve made a good faith purchase and get screwed when you get home. Just fyi….they are inside your phone and know everything about you….scary times.

          • Jennifer

            I noticed mine doing strange things with offers being there and then not randomly. Now I fully close and then reopen the app every time I start my shopping trip (in the physical store) to see if the things I were looking for are still offers. Good to know i am not going crazy lol.

        • Elizabeth

          Same here! Offer was set to expire on 5/30 at 3pm and checked in AM and it had reset to 6/1. So thought could get later. Went at night to get and offer was gone! I have never had this happen and think it is the new app changes. Contacted them since there is a problem then with this new app!

    • Happymama

      Mine said it wasn’t installed, so I went to the Play store and just opened it that way. Boy is it different lol..

    • Heather

      Mine too! So frustrating!

    • Margie

      Do you use an iPhone? My ibotta app was freezing until I downloaded the latest iPhone update. Once I installed the phone update my ibotta update started working fine. HTH

    How does the Ibotta work with Groupon? I made a Groupon purchase this morning and did not know that there is a way to get credit put on Ibotta from their purchases.
    Thanks

    • Mel

      You have to click through the link in the app to purchase & to get credit.

      • v

        Thanks Mel. I’ll think Ibotta first next time I make a purchase via Groupon.
        Too bad I can’t “add the purchase” later like with grocery items.

  10. Mary Beth

    Ibotta has saved me $1117.83 in the past year. It’s a must have. Would appreciate someone using my referral code yotryrt

  11. Donna

    Speaking of Ibotta, it’s my FAVORITE money-saving app!! You can redeem your saved up cash for PayPal deposits or a wide variety of gift cards!! It rocks! I’ve saved over $1,000 since I started a couple years ago! You can sign up through the App Store or online. please use my link https://ibotta.com/r/67l5a
    Thanks in advance! πŸ™‚

  12. Margie

    I am a little worried that the removal of the barcode scan may result in a lot more support requests. Even scanning the UPC codes I sometimes had trouble receiving rebates on items that had really strange product names on the receipt.

    I am really looking forward to a more user-friendly interface. Over the last couple of years the app became more and more difficult to read and browse through.

    If anyone still needs to sign up for a new ibotta account, please use my referral link below and join my team! I’ve been using ibotta for over four years!

    I have averaged $10-20 a month by scanning just a few receipts every week after my regular grocery shopping. You get your money almost immediately on paypal once you have $20 or you can choose a gift card. Please consider my referral. https://ibotta.com/r/kxwiaya

  20. cherry

    What does it mean? “Redeem items 2-3 times per receipt”? Does this mean I can redeem the same receipt in a different ibotta account?

    • Kristin

      If you buy more than 1 of the same product on one receipt, you can get money back all. Example: $1 back on cheerios, you buy 2 and should be able to get back $2.

  21. Lola

    I would appreciate if you sign up through my link so my team gets bigger so it’s easier for you to receive the bonus for the month. https://ibotta.com/r/knyyael
