Ibotta reported third-quarter 2026 revenue of $97.8 million on its November 2, 2026 earnings call, up 17% year over year. Third-party publisher redemption revenue increased 43%, following a 4% decline a year earlier.

Why it matters

The results mark the fourth consecutive quarter with top- and bottom-line performance above the high end of guidance. Expanded coupon access through partner platforms signals how digital offers are reaching shoppers.

Ibotta's third-quarter 2026 revenue of $97.8 million rose 17% year over year, while adjusted EBITDA reached $23.8 million, up 43%. Early projections call for 2027 revenue growth of at least mid-single digits, though the company has not provided a detailed forecast.

Culture Shift

Coupon redemption has moved from paper inserts toward retailer-operated digital platforms over the past decade. Ibotta's 43% rise in third-party publisher redemption revenue suggests that migration is accelerating as grocers and delivery services embed offers directly into their apps.

Shoppers across the United States may see more digital offers available through grocery and delivery apps as partners join the Ibotta Performance Network. Those who use digital coupons can access a wider selection of offers than before the expansion.

The takeaway

Checking whether your grocery or delivery apps offer digital coupons can help you find savings on products you already buy. Comparing offers across several platforms before checking out may reveal the best available discounts.
