The Offer
Citibank must have gotten jealous of the U.S Bank existing customer offer and decided to offer their own.
- Earn a cash bonus of $10, up to a maximum of $100 when you perform one of the qualifying digital activities
- Online Bill Pay
- Mobile Check Deposit
- Outgoing Popmoney Transfers (which is a person to person transfer between two Citi accounts)
The Fine Print
- Offer only valid for Citibank regular checking customers
- You must be enrolled in this promotion by July 31st, 2014
- Enrollment must be done online through the online “sign on to enroll” button, at a Citibank branch or by calling CitiPhone
- You have until December 31st, 2014 to earn the full $100
- Bonuses will be paid into your Citibank checking account within 60 days after the calendar month in which you completed the qualifying digital service transaction
- You earn $10 for each qualifying digital activity (e.g if you perform an online bill pay, mobile check deposit & outgoing popmoney transfer you’ll earn a total of $30 for that month)
- Offer is limited to one per customer account
- Bank account bonuses are treated as interest and as such you must pay taxes on them
Our Verdict
The majority of people that will want to take advantage of this offer are those that are already earning Citibank ThankYou points for completing similar actions already. Some might also have accounts from earlier in the year from signing up to various other promotions.
Personally I don’t think this offer is worth signing up for unless you already have a Citibank checking account, in which case it’s an extremely easy $100. It’s also worth doing if you don’t currently have a Citibank checking account and want to rack up some ThankYou points and cash. We’ll be doing an in depth post on those accounts later this week, so keep your eyes peeled.
