The Offer
- Receive a sign up bonus of 100,000 ThankYou points when you spend $3,000 or more within the first three months of account opening.
The Fine Print
- This is a targeted offer, it won’t be available to everybody
Our Verdict
A few people have reported receiving this offer now, this is one of the reasons I recommend regularly checking for targeted offers – you never know what is going to show up. You can use this link to check for targeted offers for Citi, this post has a list of links for all card issuers. So far I’ve only heard of people receiving mail outs for this offer, but I’m sure it’ll populate online as well.
Keep in mind there is a 60,000 point offer with a lower annual fee of $350 available in branch and a public bonus of 50,000 points. The standard bonus on this card is 30,000 points.
Nick92 on Flyertalk also reports receiving an e-mail, this e-mail contained a slightly different card design (in addition to a TY points offer). I imagine this change is supposed to make the magnetic strip easier to see but I don’t think it makes much of a difference. The Citi Premier recently had a new look done as well, which goes in line with Citi refreshing their credit card line up.

Have you found any link to the 100,000 Citi Prestige offer? I only see the 50,000 on line card offer. Also, do they still offer the $100 credit for Global Entry?
I recently got the Prestige with the 50K bonus, so I just called and asked about the 100K. They said if I print out the 100K offer and send it in, they will try to match it to my account.
So…does anyone know where I can find that 100K offer online?
Try eBay maybe? Not sure if that’ll work or not though.
I actually sent in the photo of the 100K mailer offer that somebody posted on FlyerTalk. We’ll see if it works!
Please let us know if that works or not!
Did it work?
Any response from Citi? I’d love to get the 100k offer…
Unfortunately, it didn’t work. Citi said each mailer has a unique identifier code that you would need to apply. I guess if you can find someone who got the offer, but isn’t planning to use it, you could ask for their code

2 Years running that Citi has made things very interesting in their attempts to win our business. These guys are playing to win. I like it.
Things are changing so fast it may be helpful for you to do a “Where we Stand on City Thank You” card type posts that pulls together the offers and links to all of your great past work on best uses.
Silly/AlreadyAnswered Question but whiel I am here: Thinking of loading up for the wife and I and the 50k Premier Offer. Does getting the Premier at all impact my ability to get the Prestige? And can we combine the points?
Shouldn’t impact you at all, points can be combined.
Any chance Citi will match to this offer if not targeted?
Extremely doubtful, but never hurts to try I guess. Let us know if it works.
I’d welcome a redesign. They need to just put the strip on the back like every other card. Most of the time I don’t bother using my card for POS transactions where the cashier has to swipe because it’s too much hassle to explain how to swipe it. It seems like Citi let some marketing/design consultant run amok without thinking it through. Otherwise it’s a great card.
I think this revised design is kinda cool. No more scratch on the top part of the card where the beautiful logo sits.
