Today I found a very interesting trick from CitiCards.Com.

Citi Professional Card with ThankYou Network is a nice card. It will give you 3% cash back at restaurants, gas stations, office supply stores and even on car rentals. This professional card is a hybrid personal/business card and it will appear on your credit report. At CitiCards.Com, you can see “Earn 10,000 ThankYou Points” after first purchase which can be redeemed for a $100 gift card. However, if you apply for this card from this link, you can get 2,000 more ThankYou Points.

If you apply for this card through this link, you can get 5,000 more ThankYou Points.

How can you do this? When you enter the application page, you can try to close the window. (please make sure your browser allows ‘pop-up’s ) Then there will be a small window pop up which will give you more bonus points. I believe most credit card websites are aware of this trick. But they still promote this card as what exactly Citi said. Too bad, huh?

Similar trick can be found at another citi card—Citi Business Card with ThankYou Network. Details can be found at this post.
