What happened
Doctor of Credit reports that some Citi cardholders are seeing $50 off an IHG stay of $300 or more booked through Citi Travel by October 22, 2026. The credit applies to one booking made from October 8 through that deadline, either on the Citi Travel site or by calling 1 833 737 1288.
The offer is targeted and appears as a homepage or pop-up rather than a public page. The primary cardmember must place the reservation and may book for another person. Reservations made before October 8, 2026 do not qualify. Cancelling the stay forfeits the one-time credit with no second use. A stay booked in Citi Travel usually posts no IHG points and no elite nights.
Use Citi Travel only when the $50 discount leaves an IHG stay cheaper than booking direct.
