According to state population data combined with Ibotta’s data, most states average about 15% of their adult population using the app, which means that most states could save 6.5 times the amount of money they already have if more people used the app. For perspective, Florida has 18% of all adults using the app, meaning Floridans could have saved over $400 Million (instead of $72 Million) if everyone used the app.
