Our Verdict
Not everybody will be targeted, just do a search for eBay and it should show up if you are (if you just see the 1% cash back offer you’re not eligible). If you don’t already have an Ibotta account you can use my referral link and you’ll get $10 for joining (I’ll also receive $5. More about the referral bonus here). You can read our full review of Ibotta here. Another good targeted promotion they have is $1 back on all Uber rides.
Worst case scenario with this you should be able to buy a $1 item with free shipping and come out $4 ahead, not sure if gift card purchases will work or not but that could be another option.
Finally got the “App to School” Ibotta bonus, $5, for my E-bay purchase. Been so long ago, not even sure what I bought.
Saw this when I opened the app yesterday.
Since I cannot be home to receive any physical orders, I tested the ebay mobile shopping by purchasing a $25 Uber e-giftcard.
Email arrived just now confirming the $5 bonus! So at least it worked for me on giftcard
Thx, Doc!
Oh no… I mistook the email title.. it is actually for something else… sorry!!! “Your $5 bonus is available now” really makes me think it was for that eBay offer. 😰
Thinking back, I did get the App to School bonus, but it was for $2 and worked with any online retailer. I used mine with Boxed and it stacked with the $2 Boxed bonus.
I can’t swear to this, but Ibotta might have shown different banners for the same bonus depending on which online retailer’s page you were looking at. So the Jet page would show you the above image with the Jet logo instead of eBay, the Boxed page would show you a Boxed version, etc. Did anybody else see that?
I don’t think I saw that, but I too stacked the App to School and Boxed bonuses however mine were for $5 each. I stacked that with the $25 off $75 Amex offer and $15 of $60 Boxed Welcome Bonus and got $90 worth of Tide for $30!!
Nice!!
I got the 5 dollar bonus offer! Thanks for posting this one, I would have missed it! I may try a gift card and will follow up if it works.
1% with no bonus here. I did get the $2 Boxed bonus though.
I got $2 bonus offer . Also got similar boxed for boxed.
Got the $2 ebay offer on my account. They’ve been sending me Just For You emails that include rebates that are actually specifically excluded from my account. Lame.
That’s super annoying they are sending you e-mails that you’re not targeted for.
