Citi ThankYou Points transfer bonuses: Leaders Club 25% bonus through 7/20

July 29, 2025: While updating the list of ThankYou points transfer partners to add American Airlines and update the transfer ratios for Emirates, I found that Citi was offering a transfer bonus to Leaders Club. Here are the updated transfer bonuses on the Citi ThankYou Rewards® cards.

My take: No opinion about Leaders Club, but excited about American

I haven’t used the Leaders Club program, so I really don’t have much of an opinion of this transfer partner. The thing that I’m most excited about is the addition of American Airlines AAdvantage® as a transfer partner.
