Update 4/5/22: They’ve now added an additional signup bonus for a limited time to get 5 ThankYou points per $1 spent on air travel and hotel purchases up to $6000 for the first 12 month.

Update 8/16/21: Bonus is now down to 20,000 points again.

Update 5/13/21: The link below is now increased from 20,000 to 25,000 (standard offer on Citi website is 15,000). Not sure if the in-branch 30,000/40,000 offer is still around.

Update 10/14/19: This deal is being offered again. Keep in mind there is an in branch 30,000/40,000 points. Hat tip to reader Khmalh

  • Bonus ThankYou Points are not available if you received a new cardmember bonus for Citi Rewards+â„ , Citi ThankYou®Preferred, Citi ThankYou® Premier/Citi Premierâ„  or Citi Prestige®, or if you have closed any of these cards, in the past 24 months.
  • Low intro rate on purchases and balance transfers

Our Verdict

Launch sign up bonus was 15,000 points, we also saw a 10,000 point + $100 live nation credit. Still not really worth it because of the 24 month restrictive language, better to get a sign up bonus on the Premier or Prestige.  If you have any questions about Citi cards, read this post as they are most likely answered there.
