Update 8/5/25: It appears that the in-branch 100k offer is still alive, but the older links generated in July are no longer working. It might be possible to get a fresh link emailed from a Citi banker, not clear if that’s still working.
Another update 7/30/25: a reader report indicates that this 100k bonus might be getting extended through 8/30/25. See this comment.
Update 7/28/25: a reader sent in an image of the 100k flyer from a Citi branch and it shows and end date of 7/31/25. So this might 100k offer might be super short term for the next few days only. Flyer image:
Original Post 7/28/25:
Yesterday the Citi Strata Elite launched with an 80,000 point bonus online alongside Citi 1:1 transfers to American Airlines. It is currently possible to get a 100,000 point bonus in branch with the same $4,000 spend requirement. You can use the branch locator to find your local branch, but branches also have the ability to e-mail you the higher 100,000 point bonus without going in branch. It’s obviously possible not all branches will do this, but I suspect it’s good for their stats if they drive sign ups so it shouldn’t be too difficult.
