It’s officially gift card season, so you might be tempted to open the Citi ThankYou Premier Card, as it offers an initial bonus of $500 in gift cards after you spend $2,500 during the first three months. But before you pull the trigger and submit an application, you should know exactly what else this card offers as well as how it ranks among the competition. The only really worthwhile things that the Citi ThankYou Premier Credit Card offers is 1.2 points per dollar spent at gas stations, supermarkets, drug stores, and commuter transportation and parking merchants and 1 point per dollar spent on everything else. The free annual companion airline ticket and 15% discounts on air travel you get when booking through Sprint Incentives probably won’t be a great deal because Sprint Inventive fares are bound to be much higher than discount comparison sites like Expedia and Kayak. As a result, I’d have to say that there are better choices than the Citi ThankYou Card out there if you’re looking to get a new credit card this holiday season. I mean the Chase Sapphire Preferred is offering an initial bonus worth $500 - $625, depending on how you choose to redeem the bonus points you get for spending $3,000 in the first three months. The Capital One Cash Credit Card offers 1.5% cash back across all purchases. The Capital One Venture Card is basically a travel-oriented 2% cash back card. Like the ThankYou Card from Citi, none of these cards charge membership fees in the first year. Unlike the Citi ThankYou Card, these cards all have membership fees in subsequent years that are less than $125. I’d therefore have to recommend saying ThankYou but no ThankYou about the ThankYou Premier Card.
