The Compound Verdict

The Dividend was Citi's answer to the rotating 5 percent wars and it quietly never died, it just stopped taking new customers around 2013. Grandfathered holders still get a quarterly calendar, capped at 300 dollars of cash back per calendar year. It is the rare zombie card that still pays out, which is why old accounts never get closed.
