Link: Apply now for the Citi Strata Elite℠ Card
The Citi Strata Elite℠ Card (review) is Citi’s new premium business card. While the card has a steep $595 annual fee, there are lots of reasons to consider picking up this card. I decided to apply for this new product, and want to report back with my experience.
While this card isn’t some amazing slam dunk that’s too good to be true, I think the card is worth giving a shot, especially with the welcome offer available.
In this post:
At the end of the application, you’ll be asked for your American AAdvantage number, if you have one. The reason you’ll want to include this is because this is where the Admirals Club day passes will be deposited, as those are an ongoing card perk.


Citi Strata Elite in-branch application basics
Any Citi banker at a branch can help you apply for the Citi Strata Elite in person. In the past, I haven’t had great experiences with getting Citi in-branch appointments, let alone even getting individual Citi branches to pick up the phone.
