Citi is a TPG advertising partner.<\/em><\/p>\n

If you’re looking to boost your summer travel with a nice haul of transferable points, you might want to think about one of Citi’s most viable cards on the market.<\/p>\n

The Citi Premier\u00ae Card<\/a><\/span> (see rates and fees<\/a>) is offering 60,000 ThankYou points after you spend $4,000 on purchases within the first three months of account opening. According to TPG valuations<\/a> that peg ThankYou points at 1.8 cents apiece, that’s a bonus worth $1,080.<\/p>\n

In the past, Citi has offered up to 80,000 ThankYou bonus points<\/a> \u2014 and while that’s a pretty solid deal, 60,000 ThankYou points also offer tons of value. Let’s dive deeper into Citi’s Premier Card to see what other perks it offers.<\/p>\n

THE POINTS GUY<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Aside from the potential points haul the sign-up bonus offers, the Citi Premier is one of the best earners among rewards credit cards thanks to its various bonus categories. They include:<\/p>\n

Currently, Citi is offering 10 points per dollar on airfare, hotel and car rental bookings when booked through the Citi Travel portal on ThankYou.com through June 30, 2024. You’ll also receive 1 point per dollar on all other purchases.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

What can you do with Citi ThankYou points?<\/h2>\n

What’s particularly valuable about ThankYou points is the ability to utilize the issuer’s airline and hotel transfer partners<\/a>.<\/p>\n

After you meet the initial spending requirement of $4,000 in the first three months, you’ll have at least 60,000 ThankYou points \u2014 and even more, if you’ve spent in the bonus categories listed above \u2014 that you can use to book travel that includes flights and hotels.<\/p>\n

If you value simplicity, the 60,000-point sign-up bonus will let you book $600 of paid travel directly through the Citi ThankYou travel portal<\/a>. You’ll earn miles and elite status on these flights by redeeming points this way, and you don’t have to worry about award availability. You could also redeem your points for $600 in gift cards.<\/p>\n

TPG credit card writer Danyal Ahmed<\/a> is a huge fan of the Citi Premier<\/a><\/span> and utilizes his points exclusively by transferring them to some of Citi’s transfer partners.<\/p>\n

He finds value in programs such as Air France-KLM Flying Blue<\/a>, thanks to their standardized award chart between the U.S. and Europe, which offers business-class tickets for 50,000 points one-way while having the ability to add a free stopover.<\/p>\n

Before its devaluation<\/a>, Danyal often transferred his Citi ThankYou points to Turkish Airlines Miles&Smiles<\/a> to secure business-class seats for as little as 47,000 miles one-way to the Middle East. However, another phenomenal use of Citi points is to transfer them to Qatar Airways Privilege Club<\/a> to book the renowned QSuite <\/a>business-class product.<\/p>\n
