Citi Simplicity+ Mastercard®

About credit card

The Citi Simplicity+ Mastercard is a credit card issued by Citi Bank that may be used to pay down debt or fund a significant purchase; however, it is not always the best option for either. Its distinguishing feature is a lengthy 0% introductory APR term for balance transfers. This might make it a smart alternative for consolidating current debt, but it receives no benefits.

Features 

• No late payment fees. You may find it more difficult to make credit card payments on time during these financially difficult times.
• City Bank perks. Take advantage of bargains and discounts both locally and in 90 other countries.
• 10% cash back. Citi simplicity+ Mastercard encourages responsible credit cardholders who pay their regular outstanding bills on time or early by giving you 10% return.
