3-Step Guide to Getting Cash Back Online Shopping with Ibotta

Shopping online has never felt more rewarding.

Whether you’re shopping on Amazon, ordering takeout from your favorite restaurant, or booking a trip on Hotwire, start with Ibotta to get cash back on all of your purchases. First, if you don’t already have the free Ibotta app, download it from the iOS or Google Play store and sign up for a new account. Then follow the steps below to start making money:

Step 1: Select “Find Offers” and open the “Mobile Shopping” category.

Open the Ibotta app, select “Find Offers” at the bottom of the app and then select the “Mobile Shopping” category from the menu. Browse offers available at offer 50 of the most popular online retailers, including Etsy, Orbitz, and Overstock.

Pro tip: If you have any online shopping favorites, you can use the search bar at the top of the app to look for them.

Step 2: Find an offer you’d like to use and select “Shop”.

Once you’ve found your retailer, select the “Shop” button and Ibotta will take you straight to the retailer’s website (or mobile app, if you have it downloaded). Then, simply shop as normal!

Pro Tip: you’ll always see the Ibotta header at the top of your screen if you’re shopping through the app. If you don’t see this header, make sure you go into the Ibotta app and shop from there — otherwise, you won’t receive credit for your purchase!

Step 3: Complete a purchase without leaving the website or mobile app.

Shop in the retailer’s app or mobile site just like you normally would, making sure to complete your purchase without leaving the app. Once you’ve made your purchase, you’ll soon receive an update confirming the amount of your pending earnings and when you can expect them in your Ibotta account balance.

That’s it.
