Below is the post that I wrote that details the changes coming to your The Citi ThankYou Premier card on August 23, 2020. The bonus categories are changing and there are some new benefits too.
However, due to Covid-19, Citi is fast tracking some of the bonus categories to start before August 23rd. Right now (starting June 2), you can earn
• 3 points per $1 spent on supermarket purchases
• 3 points per $1 spent on restaurant purchases, including takeout and curbside pickup, in addition to how you already earn with the card which is as follows:
1. Earn 3x ThankYou Points on Travel that includes Airfare, Hotels, Travel Agencies, Gas and Parking.
2. Earn 2x ThankYou Points on Entertainment (click here for a detailed definition of entertainment)
3. Earn 1X ThankYou Points on other purchases.
Then starting on August 23rd, the earning rates will be as follows:
1. Earn 3x ThankYou Points on supermarkets, restaurants, air travel, hotels and gas stations (and on other travel through 4/9/2021).
2. Earn 2x points on Entertainment, but only through 4/9/21.
3. Earn 1X ThankYou Points on other purchases.
Reminder, there is also the new benefit of $100 Annual Hotel Savings where starting August 23, 2020, you will get $100 off a single hotel stay of $500 or more booked through thankyou.com or by calling 1-800-THANKYOU once per calendar year.
However, this following change os not so good….Points redeemed for airfare through the ThankYou Travel Center will no longer get 25% more value.
The Citi ThankYou Preferred card is changing too and you can read about that here.
