Citi introduces annual dining credits for American Airlines Executive card

Citibank has introduced a new annual dining benefit for the Citi / AAdvantage Executive World Legend Mastercard. Cardmembers will receive up to $200 in annual dining credits redeemable through the inKind platform.

The benefit is distributed in two $100 allotments per calendar year: one for the period from January through June, and another for July through December. To access the credits, eligible cardholders must download the inKind app and link their Citi / AAdvantage Executive card to their account. When dining at a participating venue within the inKind network, which includes more than 10,000 restaurants, bars, and cafes in the United States, users can apply the credit to their check via the app.

Credits are applied at the time of checkout rather than as a statement credit. The benefit does not cover tips, fees, or service charges. Authorized users are also eligible to redeem the credit. Citi has stated that this benefit is a permanent addition to the card.
