Citi® Hilton HHonors™ Visa Signature 50,000 credit card

Citi has upped its offer on the Hilton Signature card:

- EARN A $50 STATEMENT CREDIT after you spend $50 or more on your first hotel stay within the Hilton HHonors Portfolio during the first six months of cardmembership.8

- EARN 50,000 Hilton HHonors Bonus Points after making $1,000 in purchases with your Citi® Hilton HHonors™ Visa Signature® card within the first 4 months of opening your account.

- No Cap On HHonors Points1, and your points will never expire as long as you have qualifying HHonors activity at least once every 12 months.

- Enjoy Complimentary HHonors Silver Status as long as you're a Citi Hilton HHonors Visa Signature cardmember-including great benefits like a 15% bonus on HHonors Base Points earned3 and complimentary access to the health club or fitness center during your stay, at hotel owned and operated facilities.

- Fast Track To HHonors Gold Status4 after four stays within your first 90 days of card membership.

- No Annual Fee

The regular link provides only 40,000 points and no statement credit.





This isn't really a card I feel too strong about. 50,000 Hilton Honors points don't get you much (with maybe the exception of 5 free nights at the excellent Doubletree Kuala Lumpur). Hilton Gold Status can easily be obtained for free.

Not so sure why I'd get this card - ideas?
