What happened
Eligible Citi AAdvantage Executive World Legend Mastercard holders began receiving a $100 inKind dining credit each half-year on October 25, 2026. Credits run January 1 through June 30 and July 1 through December 31, with no published end date.
Cardholders apply the credit by paying at participating restaurants through the inKind app with that linked card. Both new and existing inKind users qualify. The Executive credit cannot combine with other inKind balances or the app's usual rewards on the same bill. Tips and some taxes still have to be charged to the card. inKind lists over 10,000 restaurants and bars, with the strongest coverage in larger U.S. cities.
The card carries a $695 annual fee. Costco ordinarily sells $100 inKind gift cards for $75, so the dining credit is not worth face value. The $200 cannot be spent in a single period.
If the Executive card is already in the wallet, add it in the inKind app and claim the open $100 credit; do not get the card for this perk.
