Issuer Rules & Restrictions

Shutdown Risk Triggers
Manufactured spending, excessive cash advances, repeated rapid application and cancellation of cards to farm bonuses, returns of purchases used to meet minimum spend requirements, using the card for non-personal or non-household purposes, application fraud or misrepresentation
Cliff Effect Rules
The bonus restriction family for the Strata Premier is limited to the Citi Premier and Citi Strata Premier — these two cards share a 48-month bonus clock. A prior Citi Premier bonus blocks the Strata Premier bonus and vice versa. The Strata Premier bonus is independent from the Citi Strata, Citi Strata Elite, Citi Double Cash, Citi Custom Cash, and all Citi AAdvantage card bonuses, allowing cardmembers to stack bonuses across these distinct families if 48-month windows are respected.
International Friendly
This card works well for international travel and transactions.
Additional Issuer Rules
The Citi Strata Premier Card enforces a card-family 48-month bonus restriction shared only with the legacy Citi Premier Card — bonus ThankYou Points are not available if the applicant received a new account bonus for a Citi Premier or Citi Strata Premier account in the past 48 months, or converted another Citi card on which a bonus was earned within the past 48 months into either of these cards. Notably, this restriction is narrower than many other Citi cards — it does NOT extend to the Citi Strata, Strata Elite, Double Cash, or Custom Cash families, making it possible for applicants who have earned those bonuses to still be eligible for the Strata Premier. Standard Citi velocity rules apply: no more than one new personal card approval per 8 days and no more than two within any 65-day period.
