Each month you can get points for your checking account relationship based on:
- the type of checking account package you have and whether it's active (i.e., if at least one credit or debit transaction has been made from the enrolled account);
- the number of qualifying linked products and services that you have and use.
How It Works
Online Bill Payment is available to all Citi Online customers with a checking account—no need to enroll.
The first step is to set up your payee list. Select the people and businesses you pay frequently from an extensive list of merchants, many of whom accept electronic payments (received within two business days). Need to add your own personal payees? We'll put the check in the mail for you(received within 5-7 business days).
Then simply choose between a one-time or recurring payment and you’re done. That's it!
