Our Verdict
Basically the same deals they offered last week for IHG. Booking through a portal like this still counts as booking directly, so you’ll still earn elite night/stay credits and Choice points on your stay. If you’re new to Ibotta, appreciate if you use:

I wish this would work for me but looks like it won’t stack with my Farm Bureau discount, which is usually 20%. For anyone who stays at a lot of Choice hotels and has a local Farm Bureau, it’s worth the few bucks a year to become a member and get their discount code.
I don’t remember how much my membership fee is – it’s probably around $30 I think. You don’t have to be a farmer to join. I save several hundred, possibly more than a thousand dollars a year thanks to this discount since I use it when booking rooms for my employees. Paying for 2, 3 or 4 rooms a night adds up pretty quick.
I’m seeing 8% CB plus the $10 bonus on $125+
