How does this work? So you choose one category each month? Something is missing here.

Quote from rjm08 :
The benefit is to only use it for up to $500 per month and only in the top category. And, does the double cash have the $200 bonus?
That is one time benefit not regular. I was just comparing monthly regular cashbacks.

When bill gets generated system recognizes automatically your TOP Category spend for the month and gives 5% cashback on those spends. You do not need to do anything. Everything else is 1% cashback.

A few points on your credit is not worth $200 to you

It is to me

And this card is better than mediocre- its better than many cards

I don't think any of those would generate 5% with the possible exception of neighborhood markets being coded as a grocery store

Quote from TonyT9182 :
Not sure if someone else asked this, but will citi do a hard inquiry or a soft pull for this card?

It's hard pull. Got confirmation from rep.


"Yes, it would be a hard pull if you apply for it currently. It won't be available for conversion until late July of this year. If you can wait that long then you may be able to convert without having that hard pull on your credit."

How many of you are going to convert Double Cash to this one in July? I wish Citi was able to combine existing credit cards so I can apply for this one, get the cashback, then close but combine credit line with the Double Cash card.

No thanks I'll stick with my double cash card. No categories, no caps, no devaluation, no BS.

2% on gas vs 5%, 2.5x rewards.

If my "top" category is 20% of my expense. I will get 5% but all other is only 1% so for rest 80% is only 1% cashback. But citi double cash card gives flat 2% for all. I do not see benefit, unless I keep buying one category stuff only with this card and all other with citi double cash. Smilie

Use this card for whichever qualified category you spend highest in and use the rest on double cash.

Called to switch my double cashback card to this one, but Citi said they won't allow card upgrades to Custom Cash card until July.

Seems too good to be true. Expecting a rug pull once they meet quota
