The Offer
- Citi is running a promotion where when you transfer your Citi ThankYou points to Hilton points, you’ll receive an additional 0.5 Hilton points per Citi point 25% transfer bonus. You must transfer in increments of 1,000 ThankYou points, which would equal 2,000 Hilton points.
The Fine Print
- Valid until January 6th, 2016
Our Verdict
It’s not surprising to see this transfer bonus, it’s actually Citi’s fourth transfer bonus of any type (a full compiled list can be found here) and given Hilton is also one of their co-branded credit card partners it’s a natural partnership. American Express have also offered a similar (but targeted) transfer bonus twice with Hilton as well.
Personally I don’t think three Hilton points are worth one Citi point, let alone two. So I’ll be staying well away from this deal, but it’s very encouraging to see that Citi are now aggressively offering these transfer bonuses.
Hat tip to reader Martin
Are you American or British? Trying to figure out why you always use “are” instead of “is” and “have” instead of “has”. It’s very perplexing to read this over and over again.
If you have a specific redemption in mind where you are getting 1 cent per point at hilton it could be worth it…although those are rare these days.
