CITI PRESTIGE CARD BENEFIT TERMS AND CONDITIONS
(WITH EFFECT 1 JANUARY 2018)

Your Citi Prestige® Card Program includes benefits provided by Citi® or certain third party service providers ("Service Provider"). With the Citi Prestige Card you are eligible for benefits provided through the MasterCard® World Elite® program. In order to make use of these benefits you must make the qualifying purchase with your Citi Prestige Card and your card account must be open and current.

We have the right to add, modify, or delete any Citi Prestige Card benefit, service, or feature at our discretion, at any time. Citi is not responsible for the products or services offered by other companies.



INTERNATIONAL COMPLIMENTARY NIGHT HOTELS AND RESORTS PROGRAM TERMS AND CONDITIONS

Citi Prestige Cardmembers will enjoy one complimentary night with no black-out dates, when you book a minimum of four consecutive nights at any hotel booked by Citi Prestige Concierge ("Citi Prestige Concierge", is operated by a third-party service provider). Bookings made through other methods such as, travel agents, websites or directly with a hotel will not qualify.

To receive your complimentary night (via a statement credit), the name of the person booking, staying and the paying guest must be the same as the Cardmember’s name on the reservation. The primary Cardmember must:

  • Book a reservation for a minimum, consecutive four-night stay by contacting the Citi Prestige Concierge and booking directly with Citi Prestige Concierge; and
  • Fully pay for the entire stay with the Citi Prestige Card; and
  • Stay at the hotel for the entire reservation.

Citi Prestige Cardmembers will receive a statement credit to their Citi Prestige card statement based on the average nightly rate of your first four (4)-night stay in the same hotel property. For the avoidance of any doubt, taxes of any kind (including of goods and services tax (GST), value added tax (VAT) or similar taxes) will not be credited. Hotel imposed fees, including dining or resort fees and incidental guest charges are the Cardmember's sole responsibility.

Primary Cardmembers will be charged the total cost of the full stay at checkout and will receive a credit to the credit card statement as set forth above. If a Citi Prestige Cardmember books a special "pre-paid" rate this may require upfront payment in full, at time of booking. Payment in full is defined as pre-payment for all consecutive nights. If the reservation is cancelled, changed, or check-out occurs before fourth night, benefit night is forfeited and has no cash, or credit value.

All statement credits will be reflected on the Citi Prestige card statement as being a result of the Program and will appear within two billing periods following the month in which travel was completed; or in the case of promotional "pre-paid" that are paid in full as described above, rates the credit will be reflected within two billing periods following the date of payment in full of the "pre-paid" rate. Foreign exchange conversion rates may fluctuate resulting in slight differences in amount credited.

Eligibility Requirements

Only one (1) complimentary night is eligible per stay. A stay is a minimum of four (4) consecutive nights booked at the same hotel and does not include back-to back stays in the same city.

For the purposes of these terms and conditions, stays in the same city must be at least seven (7) days apart between check-out and the next check-in to be eligible for another complimentary night stay.

The benefit can only be used by Citi Prestige Cardmembers.

Packaged rates, such as air and hotel, hotel and car rental do not qualify for this benefit.

This benefit cannot be combined with any other promotions or discounts, including the use of corporate code discounts.

Bookings made through other methods such as, travel agents, websites or directly with a hotel will not qualify.

Cancellations and Reversals

All cancellations must be done through the designated travel advisor. If the reservation is cancelled, any statement credit relative to the offer will be reversed, based upon the eligibility and satisfaction of the terms of the offer. Citi and MasterCard reserve the right to reverse a statement credit including, and without limitation, any refunds, returns, disputes, adjustments or fraudulent card activity.


Merchant and Merchants Offers

Neither Citi nor MasterCard will be liable for any loss or damage incurred as a result of any interaction between a Cardmember and a Merchant (a "Merchant" is a travel supplier) with respect to the Program. Except as set forth herein, all matters, including but not limited to delivery of goods and services, returns, and warranties are solely and strictly between Cardmember and the applicable Merchants, subject to applicable law. Cardmember acknowledges that Citi and MasterCard do not endorse or warrant the Merchants that are accessible through the Program, nor Merchants’ offers provided.


Cardmember Responsibilities
