Personal offer is no longer valid and has expired.
This offer is particularly appealing at the moment due to the fact that lots of people are being successfully matched to 75,000 points.
The Offer
- Citi / AAdvantage Platinum Select World Elite MasterCard is offering 60,000 miles after $3,000 in spend within the first three months.
Card Details
- Annual fee of $95 is waived the first year
- Contains one American Airlines bonus per 24 month language
Our Verdict
It has been possible to get this offer for some time by calling in and asking to be matched, but it’s always nice to not have to do that. Most people will not be eligible due to the following language:
- American Airlines AAdvantage® bonus miles are not available if you have had any Citi® / AAdvantage® card (other than a CitiBusiness® / AAdvantage® card) opened or closed in the past 24 months.
We discuss this rule in more depth here. Before applying read these things you should know about Citibank. This is the best offer on this card. How good this offer is really depends on how much you value American Airline miles, most people value them significantly less than they used to due to non existent saver award space so keep that in mind. If you are eligible, I’d personally apply just to get that 24 month ticking (and that way if bonuses without this language come along, you can take advantage of them even if they aren’t the “best” offer).
There is also a 60,000 mile bonus on the business card. You can get that bonus even if you’ve had a personal card before (and vice versa).
