Citi cardholders, listen up! You know how Amex and Chase have those sweet "Offers" sections that give you discounts? Well, Citi has something similar called "Citi Merchant Offers," and they can seriously cut down your travel costs. These offers are hiding on most personal Citi credit cards and give you cash back—either a flat amount or a percentage—when you use your card at participating merchants.

Why should you care? Because right now, there are some great travel-related deals to be snagged! Think discounts on things like gas at BP, luggage shipping with LugLess, and even car rentals. It's basically free money for things you're likely already buying for your trips.

So, next time you're planning a getaway, log in to your Citi account and check out the "Citi Merchant Offers" section. You might be surprised at what you find. It's a super easy way to save a few bucks and make your travel budget stretch a little further. Happy travels (and happy saving)!

Why This Matters for Your Strategy

News in the points-and-miles world moves fast, and promotional changes often have a short window. If this announcement affects a card or program you hold, log into your awardtrail dashboard to check your current benefit usage, bonus progress, and whether a transfer or redemption makes sense right now — before terms change.

As a general rule: transfer points only when you have a specific redemption in mind — transfers are almost always one-way and non-reversible. If you're unsure of the value, check our redemption guides before acting.
