ibotta is not a sure thing. The Uber promo has never even been visible in my account under the list of vendors, and I have been a member for almost a year. After I contacted ibotta, I was given this response:
"After a review of your account, you are not eligible for the Uber promotion." I am guessing that they cross-referenced my phone number with Uber (account rating: 4.92, over 500 rides) and saw that there are some months where I have 50+ Uber rides. There is no way they are going to just offer me free money for something I am already spending heaps of money on.
On the other hand, I am always looking for Uber gift cards with big discounts. Any links?
