Thanks for joining today’s session on using the Ibotta app to find rebates and stack savings in-store and online. We appreciate your time and hope these notes help you save on your very next shopping trip.

Key Takeaways and Next Steps

Get Set Up

Download the Ibotta app on your phone or tablet. Create your account (name should match your cash-out method). Add favorite stores so their offers appear at the top, and link any available retailer or loyalty accounts if prompted.

Activate Before You Buy

Open your chosen store in the app and tap the “+” to activate offers you plan to purchase. Check each offer’s size, flavor, or product requirements and limit per receipt. Look for “Free after offer” and “Best value” sections to spot the biggest savings.

Shop Smarter In-Store

Use the in-app barcode scanner to confirm you’ve picked the correct item before checkout. If you’re new to the app, scan first to avoid disappointment later. Watch for the expiring clock icon to use soon-to-expire offers.

Submit Your Receipt (Do It Right Away)

After purchase, tap Submit Receipt and follow the prompts (or use linked accounts for automatic submission where supported). “Any item” offers (like any meat or any popcorn) may ask you to watch a short ad to activate, then you’ll get those small credits that add up.

Cash Out and Track Progress

You can withdraw once you reach the $20 minimum, to your bank account, PayPal, American Express points, or via gift cards. Check your Earnings in the app to see totals by store, month, and item; use that info to plan future trips and stack Ibotta rebates with weekly store sales for maximum savings.

Happy saving!
