The FREE ibotta app is a fun & easy way to earn extra money while shopping and is available for both iPhone and Android users. Earning rewards with ibotta is super-easy. Think shopping, trivia, and quick cash all rolled into one! Ibotta gives you the opportunity to earn real money for buying your favorite brands at your favorite stores including my favorite– Target!

Ibotta works in over 80 retail chains, restaurants, movie theaters, convenience stores, home improvement centers, pet stores, and pharmacies nationwide. Earning opportunities are on many common brandnames – like Dove, Cottonelle, Tide, Kleenex, Tyson, Healthy Choice, Coke and more! Plus, here’s another benefit – you can use coupons with ibotta for even more savings and it will not affect your earnings!

Here’s how ibotta works…

Download the FREE ibotta app HERE. When you go into the ibotta app the first time, the rebates are separated into categories: Grocery, Electronics, Health & Beauty, Movies and lots more. Choose your category and retailer, then select and complete tasks to unlock the rebates you’re interested in.  The more rebates you choose, the more cash back you’ll earn.

Next, its time to go shopping. It’s very important to read all the details on each ibotta rebate to make sure you are buying the right product for that rebate. Note: In the list of retailers, you can see how many total rebates there are for each one and how many of those rebates are new, as well as the total amount of earnings possible for that retailer.

To do this, just tap on the rebate in your ibotta app. Be sure to scroll all the way down for complete Details. You can also tap on the “Not Interested” button at the bottom if you don’t like a rebate. If you repeat this as you go thru the rebates, the app will learn your likes and dislikes and personalize it to your preferences.

Another helpful feature is the barcode scanner. You can use the scanner to verify you have the right product before you buy. When you’re in the store, just bring up the ibotta rebate you’re trying to match, then scroll down and select “Verify Product Barcode” – this will bring up the camera to scan the product and tell you whether it’s a match.

After shopping, you will need to verify your purchase in the app and upload your receipt. Just tap on the redeem icon at the bottom of the screen and follow the prompts. Make sure all receipts submitted are less than 7 days old. Once your receipt is uploaded, ibotta will verify your purchase(s) and notify you anywhere from 2 – 24 hours that your credit is available. For me, my first receipt was approved within a 1/2 hour!

Ibotta can also be linked to select loyalty club cards to bring you earnings without having to upload your receipts. Just link your ibotta app to your loyalty card account, activate your ibotta rebates, then be sure and use your loyalty card at checkout.

If you would like to see your favorite retailer link to ibotta so you don’t need to scan your receipts, you can reach out to them on their Facebook page and ask them to write to ibotta at inquiries@ibotta.com to find out how.

Ibotta also has Exclusive Rebates which means these rebates are only available at select retailers. These rebates are listed under each retailer and can be found by tapping on the down arrow in the top right corner and then select Exclusive Rebates.

There’s one more thing you should know about ibotta —watch for Bonuses! The more you use Ibotta, the more Bonuses you earn and unlock. Some bonuses simply unlock another bonus! Just watch for the trophy icon under the rebate next to the earnings amount.

Ibotta only requires a $5 minimum balance to start redeeming your earnings. As you redeem rebates, your shelves will be restocked with new rebates. There is no limit to how many rebates you can redeem. 🙂

When you are ready to collect your earnings, they can be transferred securely to your Paypal or Venmo account or select from the gift cards listed.

If you have questions or need assistance, I found ibotta’s Support Center to be very helpful with lots of instructional videos and easy to follow articles. From their home page HERE, just tap on “Help Center” at the bottom of the page, right-hand side. You can also email their support team directly.

For a limited time, when you sign up for the FREE Fetch shopping App and enter the code VP5JJ BEFORE submitting your receipt, you will get 3,000 points. The Fetch App, which is based on a point system (1,000 points essentially equals $1), allows you to earn points just by scanning your shopping receipts, and then trade them in for gift cards and other rewards.

You can scan any receipt from any grocery or drug store when you sign up (must be less than 14 days old), it does not have to be a Target receipt. Usually the reward for signing up is only 2,000 points, so take advantage of this nice bonus points while you can! 🙂

You can redeem as little as 3,000 points for rewards, so for example, once you’ve signed up, and have entered the code VP5JJ and scanned your first receipt, you can now grab a $3 Target Gift Card to redeem in stores or online.

There are plenty of other rewards to choose from too though, and you can always save your points for bigger rewards. There are different ways to earn more points too, and for a more in-depth look at how this app works, you can check out my post HERE.

These days when coupons tend to be getting scarcer, it’s nice to have other ways to earn extra money when shopping by using apps. One of the easiest apps out there is called Fetch Rewards, and you can easily start earning rewards right away! This app rewards you based on a point system (1,000 points essentially equals $1) and you are rewarded for every single receipt you scan. There are also opportunities to earn additional points for purchasing specific brands).

EARN 2,000 POINTS WHEN YOU SIGN UP & SCAN YOUR FIRST RECEIPT
You can download the app at the itunes or Google Play stores and sign up in just a couple of minutes. Once you are signed up you can earn right away by tapping on the “Scan” icon at the bottom of the screen and taking a picture of any receipt from a supermarket or drug store (must be less than 14 days old). And be sure and enter the code VP5JJ BEFORE submitting your receipt. As soon as your receipt is processed, you will earn 2,000 points for using the code, and 200 points for scanning your receipt, so you will already have 2,200 points ($2.20). 🙂

WAYS TO EARN POINTS
There are several different ways to earn rewards. For starters – you earn points for every single receipt you scan. You can scan up to 14 receipts in a one-week period, and your receipts can be up to 14 days old. In addition, when you tap the “Save” Icon at the bottom of your screen you will find two different tabs for ways to earn, one called “Brands” and one called “Special Offers”.

The brands tab will list MANY, MANY brands that qualify for extra point earnings when you purchase them. The brands available will vary by user but most users will have over 100 brands to choose from. The points you will earn for buying these brands on your receipt will vary as well and are usually based on a percentage of the cost of the brand you buy.

The Special Offers Tab will display bigger earning opportunities for points when you buy specific items. When you tap into each of these earning opportunities – be sure and follow the specific instructions to be sure you are purchasing the right items in the correct quantity.

REDEEM YOUR POINTS FOR REWARDS
While you cannot trade your points for cash, you can trade your points in for tons of other things like gift cards & more and you can redeem for rewards with as little as 3,000 points.

For example, you can get a $3 Target Gift Card for 3,000 points, so to me it’s as good as cash since I definitely am always spending money at Target. 🙂

So if you are looking to earn easy rewards just for scanning your store receipts – be sure and download the Fetch App and enter the code VP5JJ when you scan your first receipt. Once you are signed up, you can also find your own referral code when you tap the “me” icon to earn additional points when you recommend the Fetch Rewards App to family and friends.
