It’s All in the Name
This card does exactly what it says, no limits, no confusion, no categories. You sign up, there is no introductory welcome bonus, you get 1% cash back when you purchase something and 1% cash back when you pay, there are no category bonuses, no surprises. This card does offer $0 annual fee and 0% APR for 18 months on balance transfers.
More than Just Cash Back
You have a couple of options when it comes to redeeming. You can request a check, get a statement credit or if you have a Citi savings or checking account you can get a credit right into your account. Increments are done with a minimum of $25. Another fun option that’s fairly new is converting your cash into ThankYou points -- converting is $1 to 100 Citi ThankYou Points. This last option is especially useful if you are holding the Citi Premier or Citi Prestige card already where points are transferable to a number of different partners, giving you even better value toward travel.
This is a no hassle kind of card, the only thing you’ll be investing is a hit to your credit and a hit toward some of the credit card rules out there. The Citi Double Cash Card does have a foreign transaction fee so it’s not to be taken abroad. If you already hold the Citi Premier or Prestige card, it’s a great addition to your wallet, enhancing your ThankYou points without too much thought, if you don’t have those cards, don’t waste your sign up on this one. 2% Back is on the lower end when it comes to rewards.
