Amazon: Pay with Citi ThankYou Points, Get Up to 50% Off (Targeted)

Amazon: Pay with Citi ThankYou Points, Get Up to 50% Off (Targeted) Check again to see if targeted for latest promo. If you have a Citi credit card that earns ThankYou points, you can redeem them to buy eligible items at Amazon.com. The redemption rate is 1 ThankYou points = 0.8 cents to spend at Amazon, which may not be the best value available. However, here are targeted promotions where you can save money after redeeming just 1 single MR point (a penny’s worth). (To see the link, you may need to visit this page on the internet if viewing this via e-mail or RSS.)

Get 40% or 50% off (max discount $10 or $15), valid on items shipped and sold by Amazon. Must redeem at least 1 Citi ThankYou point. You may be eligible even if you’ve done similar promos before.

Here are some additional tips:

If you haven’t linked yet, you can link your ThankYou points balance to your Amazon account here.
If you have already linked your cards and aren’t targeted, you may consider removing your Citi card from your account completely, and then linking it again after a day, and then checking the offer page(s) again after another day.
Items must be marked as both sold AND shipped by Amazon.com.
Be sure to select your Citi credit card as your payment method and redeem at least 1 point or $0.01 in value of ThankYou points.
Savings should be reflected on the final order checkout page, before you commit to purchase.

Notably, the Citi Double Cash card, Citi Custom Cash card, and Citi Rewards+ all now earn ThankYou points. You may want to try linking them to see if you qualify for this promotion now or in the future. For redemptions, I’d probably stick with the 2% cash back option for the Double Cash, and look at the new airline transfer options for the premium travel cards like Citi Premier.
