US retailer Giant Eagle brings its 200+ stores and digital platforms onto Ibotta Performance Network

Giant Eagle, a US multi-format food and pharmacy retailer, has joined the Ibotta Performance Network, selecting Ibotta as its exclusive provider of digital promotions across its 200+ supermarkets and digital platforms.

This will begin rolling out in the coming months.

“Our 'Because It Matters' strategy is our promise to prioritise what truly matters to our guests: quality, service, and meaningful value,” says Justin Weinstein, Executive Vice President and Chief Merchandising and Marketing Officer at Giant Eagle.

“Partnering with Ibotta allows us to deliver on that promise by providing our shoppers with hundreds of high quality, brand name promotions accessible anytime on the groceries they buy most. This transition to the Ibotta Performance Network ensures our customers have access to the industry's most robust and relevant offer gallery, strengthening the overall value our customers can realize by shopping at Giant Eagle.”

“Giant Eagle has always prioritised delivering maximum value for its shoppers, which is why it’s regarded so highly not only in its local market, but among all grocery retailers nationwide,” says Bryan Leach, CEO and Founder at Ibotta. “By moving to an exclusive partnership with Ibotta, Giant Eagle is providing CPG brands with a streamlined, powerful platform to drive incremental growth while helping families save on the products that matter most to them.”

2026 RTIH Innovation Awards

Digital retail will be a key focus area at the 2026 RTIH Innovation Awards.

The awards are now open for entries and celebrate global retail technology innovation in a fast moving omnichannel world.

Our winners will be revealed at the 2026 RTIH Innovation Awards Ceremony, taking place at The HAC in Central London on Wednesday, 4th November.

Check out our 2025 winners here.

Our 2025 hall of fame entrants were revealed during a sold out event which took place at The HAC on 16th October and consisted of a drinks reception, three course meal, and awards ceremony presided over by award winning comedian, actress and writer Tiff Stevenson.

In his welcome speech, Scott Thompson, Founder and Editor, RTIH, said: “This is the awards’ fifth year as a physical event. We started off with just 30 people at the South Place Hotel not far from here, then moved to London Bridge Hotel, then The Barbican, and last year RIBA’s HQ in the West End.”

“But I’m conscious of the fact that, to quote the legend that is Taylor Swift, You’re only as hot as your last hit, baby. So, this year we’ve moved to our biggest venue yet, and also pulled in our largest number of entries to date and broken attendance records.”

He added: “This year’s submissions have without doubt been our best yet. To quote one of the judges: The examples of innovative developments across both traditional and digital retail spaces were truly remarkable.”

Congratulations to our winners, and a big thank you to our sponsors, judging panel, the legend that is Tiff Stevenson, and all those who attended our 2025 gathering.
