Credit Cards Offers & News
- Citi has added Wyndham as a Thankyou transfer partner. You can transfer Thankyou points to Wyndham at a rate of 1:1 for annual fee cards and 1:1.08 for no-annual-fee cards. Citi recently added Choice as a hotel transfer partner at a rate of 1:2. It’s nice to see Citi adding hotel transfer partners. Granted, none of these are high-end hotels.
