How Ibotta works

Swipe the pictures. One step at a time.

Swipe, or use the arrows.

  1. 1A person tapping a phone to download Ibotta.

    Download and sign up

    Get the free app. You have to be 18 or older, and it is United States only. Enter our code when you sign up and get a $5 bonus.

  2. 2A person in a grocery aisle linking a store on their phone.

    Connect a store, or look first

    Link a store you already use, like Walmart, so the purchase can match without a photo. Or open the offers and pick items before you go. The easy ones are usually marked in the app.

  3. 3A person scanning a grocery receipt with a phone.

    Scan the receipt

    If you did not link the store, scan the paper receipt within 7 days. Add the offer in Ibotta before you pay, or you usually get nothing.

  4. 4A person holding a gift card and a phone.

    Get paid

    Ibotta’s own help page says you can cash out to a bank, PayPal, or a gift card. It does not list Venmo. You need at least $20, one offer redeemed, and 7 days after the first one. A friend who uses your code and scans one receipt can get you about $5 to $10. Some offers pay you to try a game.

Tips that still follow the rules

  • Enter our code when you sign up and get a $5 bonus.
  • Add the offer in Ibotta before you pay. If that same item is also a Walmart Cash or Dollar General cash offer, pick one place. You only get paid once. Add it in Ibotta if you want the money in Ibotta.
  • A store sale plus Ibotta is the normal stack. At Walmart, Dollar General, and 7-Eleven, a manufacturer coupon on that same item blocks Ibotta. Use whichever saves more.
  • Any Brand offers are the easy ones. You do not have to hunt one exact box.
  • The same grocery receipt can go in Fetch after Ibotta. They are different apps.
  • On Facebook, type Ibotta plus your store or your city. People post what is stacking near you this week. Then add that offer in the app before you go.
