Citi Sears Card To Be Converted To Citi ThankYou Mastercard
Update: Full details & website here. It’s unclear if this will affect the Citi Shop Your Way Rewards card or not.
Reader Justin reports receiving the following notice in the mail on their Citi Sears card:
What this means for you:
-
- This change doesn’t require any action by you.
- A new card will be sent to you between May 2025 and June 2025. Until then, keep using your Sears Mastercard to earn ThankYou Points on eligible purchases.
- With the Citi ThankYou Mastercard, you’ll enjoy great benefits that you love including earning 1X ThankYou Point for each $1 spent on eligible purchases, including while shopping at valued retailers like Sears.
- While we’re updating the name and look of your card, your current account number and account history will remain the same. Any ThankYou Points you have earned will transfer to your new card. Please note, you may continue to enjoy special offers available at Sears and Sears.com through July 9, 2025.
- Enclosed is the Citi ThankYou Mastercard Privacy Notice.
Our Verdict
This is horrible news if all cardholders are being converted. Citi Sears cards are known for generous spending offers. It says that special offers will continue to be available at Sears and Sears.com through July 9, 2025, my understanding is this is different to the spending offers that have already been sent out that are good through the end of 2025 as those aren’t specific to sears or Sears.com and they aren’t displayed there either.
