Heads up, Citi ThankYou points holders! Amazon is running a targeted promotion where you can get 40% off your purchase, up to a sweet $50 discount, when you use your ThankYou points at checkout. You'll need to use at least 125 points (worth $1), but you don't have to pay for the whole purchase with points. This deal is valid through December 31st, 2025, so you have some time to take advantage of it.
This is a fantastic way to stretch your ThankYou points further, especially if you were already planning on making a purchase on Amazon. While it seems like gift cards are excluded this time around, the deal does work for items sold by third-party sellers that are shipped by Amazon. If you're targeted, you should see the offer after linking your Citi card to your Amazon account (though some users have reported success by unlinking and relinking their card). Keep an eye out for this one – it's an easy way to save some serious cash on your next Amazon haul!
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.
