Conversion rate to cash back or statement credit is 1 TYP to .5 cent, so 8000 points is $400
Also no costco or amazon gift card shown. I see bestbuy as the one i would use most
Premier and Custom Cash can redeem for 1cpp. I got $800 direct deposit into my bank account for this bonus.
Preferred and Rewards+ are 0.5cpp. I guess you are referring to cards like this or a different low redemption card.
If you have multiple cards you can pool then together and get the higher rate.
As long as you can pay it off without interest it's crazy not to, since you'd otherwise be forgoing rewards by using cash or a check or something.
Avianca is staralliance and can book united so the points worth more if redeam thru them and book business

I wish there was an option for statement credit like Chase does but it's not good with this card.

Reason: Based on our algorithm, you have low usage of credit vs available credit... i.e. me paying off my bills every month is a bad thing.....
To make it worse, it showed up as a hard pull on my credit history, even when a card is not issued.
CITI does not want people who don't pay them late fees or interests.
DON'T BOTHER APPLYING, if you manage your finances well.

I was hesitant to apply after reading reports of denial due to low credit utilization. Mine is 0.7% utilization (never carry a balance) & 1 new card in the past 24 mos (7 in total)
Took a chance and was approved.

Check if you have credit freeze. I have 750 and instant approved.

I got this card a month ago, hit the $4k requriement in the first month and got the 80K points and was able to redeem them for an $800 statement credit which is as good as cash.
Seeing a lot of different answers in this thread and can confirm its a 1:1 from points to cents so this deal is worth a minimum of $800 guaranteed. The airline points aren't worth it because im seeing too many issues with travel right now.
