Reviewers have mixed views on iFood's value for money, especially concerning promo value, with slightly more negative than positive mentions. Out of 166 mentions, 86 are positive and 72 are negative, showing a balanced but leaning-negative perception. Customers appreciate discounts and the Clube iFood subscription. However, many report issues with misleading promotions, non-working coupons, and higher prices that reduce actual savings. No monthly sentiment history is available, but repeated complaints indicate ongoing problems with transparency and reliability in promotions. Overall, skepticism is growing about whether advertised discounts deliver real value.

What customers praise

The Clube iFood subscription offers exclusive discounts and bundled promotions. Some users report cost savings when using promotions across multiple orders. A few reviewers praise the app’s interface for making deals easy to find and apply. Many users, however, experience technical issues.

Common complaints
