What's Happening?
The Citi Strata Elite Card has introduced a $200 annual Blacklane credit, which is split into two $100 credits available semi-annually. This credit can be used for Blacklane's global chauffeur services, which offer professional drivers for city-to-city
rides, airport transfers, and more. The credit is automatically applied to eligible purchases made with the Citi Strata Elite Card, and it can be used for any Blacklane service worldwide. The card also offers other benefits such as a $300 annual hotel credit and four annual Admirals Club passes.
Why It's Important?
The introduction of the Blacklane credit adds significant value to the Citi Strata Elite Card, especially for frequent travelers who can benefit from reliable and professional transportation services. This move enhances the card's appeal in the competitive premium credit card market, where issuers are constantly seeking to differentiate their offerings. The credit can help cardholders save on travel expenses, making the card more attractive despite its $595 annual fee.
