These rebates can be redeemed regardless of any coupons used or sales prices on items. Ibotta doesn't care what you paid for the item, as long as you have a receipt that says you bought it. Because of this, you can score some major savings if you have sales and coupons to stack on top of the rebates and sometimes even make money on items you got for cheap or free.
The app is SUPER easy to use. You have to have the app to use the service, not just the website. Once you download the app, you will need to login. I would recommend using your Facebook page to login because Ibotta often does teamwork promotions and the easiest way to build your team is through your Facebook friends.
When you first open the app, you will see this screen.
From this screen, you select the category, the store, then the item or you can search for a particular item in the search bar at the top.
Once you find the item you're looking for, you will need to unlock it by clicking the button that says "unlock" on it. This can be anything from answering a 1 question survey, reading a fact about the product or even watching a short video. Once you have completed the task, that rebate will be unlocked.
Once you have done this to all of the items you want to redeem the rebates on, from that store (you must do it one store at a time as you have to scan in your receipts) you need to select the Verify Purchases button at the bottom. Once you do, you will see this screen.
Once you get here, you will need to check off the items that don't have barcodes (usually fresh fruit and veg) then scan the barcodes of the items that do have one. This is to verify that you purchased the correct item. Once that is done, click complete and move onto step two which is to take a photo of your entire receipt. It has the option to take multiple pictures if you have a longer receipt.
And thats it! That's all you have to do to get your credit! Once the credit hits your account, you can select how you want to get your monies! They have the option of Venmo and Paypal as well as loads of gift cards to major stores.
The app also has a shopping list feature where you can make your shopping list and it will flag the items that have rebates on them (so you know what brand or size).
I love anything that saves me money, especially things that are as easy as Ibotta. As soon as I get home from the store, I go through the app and go ahead and redeem any rebates before I forget and while I still have everything out to be scanned.
Overall, I LOVE this app! It is just too easy to use, it can be stacked on top of any other deals I got and my favorite feature is you actually get cash rather than having to save up a ton of points or credits to redeem for gift cards or something.
I also regularly use several other rebates apps on top of Ibotta to maximize my savings. I also use Checkout 51, Snap by Groupon, Shopmium and MobiSave. If you would like to see a similar post on any of these other apps, let me know in the comments below!!
