Easier Way to Apply for Improved Sign-Up Bonus on Citi Hilton Reserve Card

Signing up for credit cards through partner links earns us a commission. Terms apply to the offers listed on this page. Here’s our full advertising policy: How we make money.

Update:   One or more card offers in this post are no longer available.  Check our Hot Deals for the latest offers.  I wrote about the secret way to find better offers for the Citi® Hilton HHonors™ Reserve Card and Citi® Hilton HHonors™ Visa Signature® Card by making a test booking on the Hilton website. But now, via Reddit, there’s an easier way to get in on the deal!  You can now apply directly for the improved offers on the Citi Hilton Reserve and Citi Hilton Visa Signature cards – no test booking required!

That said, there’s now an even better deal on the Citi Hilton Visa for 75,000 Hilton points after meeting minimum spending requirements.  So most of y’all will probably prefer to skip the 50,000 point offer!

There are now 3 better offers available for the Citi Hilton cards:

Citi Hilton HHonors Reserve

Earn 2 weekend nights at almost any Hilton after you spend $2,500 on purchases in the first 4 months of opening the Citi Hilton HHonors Reserve.  Plus a $100 statement credit when you spend $100+ on your first stay at a Hilton hotel within the first 6 months of opening your account.

Here’s my review of the Citi Hilton Reserve card.

Citi Hilton Visa 50,000 Point Offer

You’ll earn 50,000 Hilton points when you spend $1,000 on purchases in the first 4 months of opening the Citi Hilton Visa.  And you can earn a $50 statement credit after your spend $50+ on your first stay at a Hilton hotel within the first 6 months of opening your account.

Check out my review of the card.

Citi Hilton Visa 75,000 Point Offer

You’ll earn 75,000 Hilton points when you spend $2,000 on purchases in the first 3 months of opening the Citi Hilton Visa.  Note the higher minimum spending requirement and NO statement credit.

This is a better deal than the 50,000 point offer, even though it doesn’t have a $50 statement credit.  That’s because the extra 25,000 Hilton points are worth much more than $50!

Check out my post on this better offer!

Remember, you can have both the Citi Hilton Reserve and Citi Hilton Visa because they’re different card products.

But you’re only allowed 2 Citi personal cards within 65 days.  And you can NOT get more than 1 Citi card at a time.  You’ll need to wait 8 days before applying for a 2nd Citi card.

If you were recently approved for a lower bonus, it’s worth calling Citi to ask if they’ll approve you for a better offer.
