Citi Prestige Card 50,000 Bonus ThankYou Points worth $800 Flight

by | Apr 9, 2015 | Citi Cards

CitiPrestige50kbonuspointsThe Citi Prestige Card has increased its bonus to 50,000 ThankYou Points after $3,000 in purchases within your first three months. This makes it enough points for a $800 flight on American Airlines, a $665 flight on any other airline, or $500 in gift cards.

Normally the Citi Prestige Card is 30,000 bonus points after $2,000 in purchases, so for an extra $1,000 in purchases, you can earn 50,000 bonus points now instead. One really bad negative of this card is that it has a $450 annual fee and that is not waived for the first year. Although to compensate for that huge annual fee like other major cards are doing is a travel credit each year. This Prestige Card offers a $250 air travel credit each year and a complimentary fourth night for any hotel stay. That right there makes it better than the Club Carlson card that just downgraded their card where you cannot get your free hotel night any longer after staying a night. This definitely offsets the annual fee and I will add this card in my next card application roundup.

omg food savingsRemember to activate your 5% bonus categories for the new quarter on Chase Freedom, Discover It, and US Bank Cash+. If you don’t, you will miss out on the bonus points on your purchases.

One of our favorite cards With Rotating 5% Bonus Categories is the Chase Freedom and April 1, 2015 through June 30, 2015, you can earn 5X Chase Ultimate Rewards points at restaurants. This is a great category as it includes most anything having to do with dining out and drinking including clubs and bars. I max out this category every year. So it makes it even better that Discover Card is offering the same category so I can max out both.
