Citicards is one of the major credit card issuers.
However, unlike Chase or Bank of America, who have hundreds
of cards, Citibank has just a few credit cards. However,
most Citibank credit cards have excellent rewards and features and I think they are one of the most innovative credit card companies. Below are highlights of Citicards.
Summer Promotion - Citi and Live Nation have teamed up to offer a special offer for Citi Cardmembers - a $5 Lawn Tickets to this summer's hottest tours, including chart-toppers like blink-182, Crue Fest 2, Nickelback, and more. cardmembers can visit Citi® Private Pass and get a special access code that will allow them to view information and purchase tickets to all participating $5 Lawn Ticket concerts.
$5 Lawn Tickets for Citi cardmembers are available only at Live Nation owned and operated venues for artists including:
blink-182
Crue Fest 2
Depeche Mode
The Fray
Mayhem Festival
Nickelback
This offer runs through August 2009
The Citi® Platinum Select® Card is Citi's basic credit card. It comes with no annual fee and rewards new card holders with a 0% introductory APR for both purchases and balance transfers for 6 months. There are a couple of other features that makes this card really interesting. Firstly, the card has this feature called Extra Cash. What this is is actually an online shopping portal where you can buy stuff online through Citi and get discounts for travel items, merchandises etc. Secondly, this card has a security feature where you are given an anonymous "credit card number" when you shop online for extra security.
The Citi PremierPass® Card - Elite Level is perhaps Citi's best reward card in my opinion. What sets this card apart is that you not only earn points for every dollar that you charge to the card, but you also earn miles for the number of miles that you fly! Hence, this card is absolutely great for the frequent flyer that does not want to get a dedicated airline credit card. The reward program (ThankYou Rewards) allow you to book any travel items through expedia.com (so you are not tied down to an in-house travel agent from a credit card).
The Citi Forward(SM) Card is Citi's latest reward card offering. This card allows you to earn 5 points for every $1 spent on dining, books, movies and music; and 1 point for other purchases. The reward program is based on Citi's ThankYou Network and this card will appeal to folks who spend a lot on things like dining out, going to the movies and book stores. New cardholders get a 0% introductory APR on both purchases and balance transfers as well for 6 months. There is also a student version of this card.
The Citi® mtvUTM Platinum Select® Visa® Card for College Students allows you to earn five points for every dollar you spend on purchases at (1) book stores, (2) record stores, (3) restaurants, including fast food restaurants, (4) motion picture theaters, and (5) video entertainment rental stores. You earn one point for every dollar you spend on other purchases. Aside from this, you can earn 25 points every billing cycle if you pay your minimum payments on time and do not go over your credit limit. You can also earn points twice a year if you get good GPA scores
The Citi Forward(SM) Card for College Students is the student version of the consumer card. Like the MTVU card, this one will give you a 100 points bonus if you pay your bills on time. And since you earn 5 points for every dollar you spend on movies, books and dining, it will suit a college student perfectly.
The AT&T Universal Business Rewards Card is one of the few business cards from Citi. Once again, the reward program is based on the ThankYou Rewards. With this card, you earn 5 points for every dollar that you spend on the card for AT&T purchases, and 3 points for gasoline, and certain business expenses. There is no annual fee and you can set limits for your employees. This card comes with a 0% APR introductory offer on purchases for 6 months.
