Extra points on custom cash

arunkumarmm · ‎06-07-2022

Hi,

I just got this email about getting extra points on Citi Custom cash. It says 4 additional points per $1 spent on Grocery. Not sure it will be 9 points if Grocery was my "Front Runner" for that cycle.

Additional implies they stack. Wish I got that offer. I got home improvement instead.

I got the home improvement offer on my Custom Cash. It isn't useful for me since I live in a university apartment but it is nice that they have these offers!

I've had this card since July of last year and I think this is the first targeted offer I've received. I have the grocery offer, so a stack up to 9/pts would be awesome.

I got home improvement, too, which is useless to me, not to mention the fact last time I needed Google Maps to find my way out of Home Depot

Gift cards, I guess 🤷‍♀️

Received a nice promo from Citi for an additional 4X TY points on the Custom Cash in the groceries category. I'm seeing other DP's indicating the offer may be for other categories as well.

Looks like you can earn up to 2500 TY points from now until the end of August in the bonus category, which can also be the same category you spend the most in during that time, which would be a 9x stack.

My understanding is that while you can stack for 9x, you can also spend your highest amount in the category you want for the usual 5x and separately get 5x in the promo category (4x bonus + 1x base). Very nice! Please correct me if you think I've misinterpreted Citi's language. (P.S. Didn't know Rashida Jones was part of Citi's marketing squad, lol)
