We are an independent publisher. Our reporters create honest, accurate, and objective content to help you make decisions. To support our work, we are paid for providing advertising services. Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Next” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. The compensation we receive and other factors, such as your location, may impact what ads and links appear on our site, and how, where, and in what order ads and links appear. While we strive to provide a wide range of offers, our site does not include information about every product or service that may be available to you. We strive to keep our information accurate and up-to-date, but some information may not be current. So, your actual offer terms from an advertiser may be different than the offer terms on this site. And the advertised offers may be subject to additional terms and conditions of the advertiser. All information is presented without any warranty or guarantee to you.

This page may include: credit card ads that we may be paid for (“advertiser listing”); and general information about credit card products (“editorial content”). Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Apply Now” button or “Learn More” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. When you click on that hyperlink or button, you may be directed to the credit card issuer’s website where you can review the terms and conditions for your selected offer. Each advertiser is responsible for the accuracy and availability of its ad offer details, but we attempt to verify those offer details. We have partnerships with advertisers such as Brex, Capital One, Chase, Citi, Wells Fargo and Discover. We also include editorial content to educate consumers about financial products and services. Some of that content may also contain ads, including links to advertisers’ sites, and we may be paid on those ads or links.

    Citi is an MMS advertising partner

    Citi is making big changes to its popular Citi Prestige® Card.  And while some are positive and others are devastating, today’s changes are all good news.  You’ll now earn more Citi ThankYou points than ever with the card!

    Here are the changes that take effect today (you can sign-up for our newsletter so you don’t miss important changes like this in the future):

    There are a few other changes that will be rolled out this year.  I’ll explain more below.

    The information for the Citi Prestige has been collected independently by Million Mile Secrets.  The card details on this page have not been reviewed or provided by the card issuer.

    The Citi Prestige Does Much More Than Earn Citi ThankYou Points at an Outlandish Rate – You Can Get Your 4th Night Free at Hotels With the Card – Like I Did in Dubai With This Room

    Citi Prestige Now Earns 5X Citi ThankYou Points for Airfare and Dining

    The Citi Prestige is currently not available to new applicants, but it will be before the end of the month.  For those of us who already have the card (I have it and use it frequently), we can enjoy these improved benefits today.

    There are plenty of other cards that give you bonus points for airfare and dining.  But earning 5X Citi ThankYou points might just be enough for you to holster the others.  For example:

    The information for the Capital One Savor Cash Rewards card has been collected independently by Million Mile Secrets. The card details on this page have not been reviewed or provided by the card issuer.

    Because you can redeem Citi ThankYou points through the Citi ThankYou portal for 1.25 cents each toward airfare, the Citi Prestige earns you at least 6.25% back on dining.  That’s 1.75 cents more than its best competitor!  The downside is, starting September 1, 2019, this bonus is going away and you’ll only be able to redeem your Citi Prestige ThankYou points for 1 cent each through the Citi travel portal.

    However, Citi’s transfer partners aren’t as amazing as Chase’s.  So it could be worth a slightly inferior return if you like transferring your points to amazing partners like Hyatt, United Airlines, and Southwest.

    Note:   Beginning in September, Citi will make a few awful changes to the Citi Prestige, including:

    Let us know what you think of these changes.  Will you apply for the Citi Prestige when the application goes live later this month?
