Being seen is the beginning of everything. That's why we're giving our transgender and non-binary customers the choice to update their eligible Citi-branded consumer credit and debit cards to match who they are.
We stand for trans equality
Believing in growth and progress for all includes growth and progress for trans and non-binary people, too. Citi is a trans-affirmative brand and we will proudly continue the fight for trans and non-binary equality.
