  • +10% redemption rebate stacks across the whole ThankYou account

  • Standalone points have limited redemption value
  • 3% FTF

The Compound Verdict

A niche accelerant, not a primary card. Citi stopped accepting applications when the no-fee Strata launched in May 2025, but existing cardholders keep the round-up and the 10% redemption rebate, which still quietly discounts every ThankYou redemption in the household.
