Our Verdict
Launch sign up bonus was 15,000 points, we also saw a 10,000 point + $100 live nation credit. Still not really worth it because of the 24 month restrictive language, better to get a sign up bonus on the Premier or Prestige. If you have any questions about Citi cards, read this post as they are most likely answered there.
