The annual fee is $95.

This information should be included in the OP.
One thing to note with this offer is that you can claim the 80,000 points with this and then downgrade the card to a Double Cash in a year. Effectively giving the Double Cash a 800$ sub
1) Meet spending requirement on Citi Premier card
2) Earn 80,000 point sign up bonus
3) Downgrade Premier to Double Cash or Custom Cash before you're charged with another annual fee
4) Points balance should carry over from Premier to your downgrade card

I tried using my points as a statement credit and the value I saw was $0.008 per point, not $0.010. So only 80% of the full credit. Was this a recent change?

I didn't do the transaction, is there still some way other than buying a GC to get the full 1-cent per point value? Thanks.

You got I cash rewards then statement credit which gives you $100 for 10K points. I would choose Direct Deposit to my checking account.

Just got the card last week with only 60k. Any chance citi will up it to 80k if I contact them?
Highly doubtful. As BofA told me, once they hook you, they have no incentive to up the ante.

And if anything Citi is WORSE.

I confirm, they even sent me a letter to confirm I am not eligible for the new sign up bonus. Oh well

Thankyou point has always been less than 1c for me. I've had citi thankyou card forever, only redeeming gift cards on sale. Not sure how others are getting 1c per point, maybe premier has better option for redemption.

Can you share the steps to redeem this? If I sign up for this card, will I be able to redeem my previously earned ty points also since they will be in the same account or merged? That'll be awesome. Thanks

I have Citi Premier and Double Cash. I logged into thankyou.com, and I can redeem 90,000 points into $900 via statement credit, direct deposit, or check by mail.

I've had the Premier for a little over a year, and I product changed a Citi Dividend card into Double Cash earlier this year. My dividend cash back automatically converted into thank you points, and the points from both cars have been pooling together ever since.

I am going to be making a big home renovation purchase soon and I can use a credit card. I'm wondering if this would be the best card for getting a bonus. I've been looking and nothing else I see comes close to $800 (assuming cash back or statement credit is accurate).

Any other card suggestions?

If you're okay with applying for business credit cards, the Chase Ink Cash and Unlimited cards both have a $900 sign up bonus right now (after spending $6,000 within 3 months of opening). And there's no annual fee on either card.

I just checked my thankyou account. Cash redemption is only 0.005 per point. Too bad for preferred I guess. Maybe this premier card is worthwhile
