Current welcome offer
This Citi Expedia card offers 25,000 bonus points when you spend $2,000 within the first three months of opening your account. The Expedia Rewards site explains that 140 points is equal to $1 toward a booking—making this bonus worth roughly $180.
That calculation does not take into account discounts you get when you are an Expedia Rewards member, however. For instance, your points are worth double at thousands of VIP Access hotels.
Rewards
Earning rewards is easy with the Expedia Rewards Voyager card, as you’ll be rewarded for being an Expedia loyalist.
Earning rewards
You’ll earn 4X Expedia Rewards points every time you make a purchase through Expedia.com or the Expedia mobile app. That includes flights, hotels, rental cars and travel packages.
Expedia Rewards Voyager also gives you 2X points for restaurants and entertainment purchases, including tickets to sporting events, concerts and movies. As is the case with most reward cards, you’ll get 1X point for every other purchase you make.
Moreover, as an Expedia Rewards member, you earn an additional 2 points for every dollar you spend. As a complimentary Gold level member, you’ll earn 30 percent more points on top of that. And you’ll get double Expedia Rewards points when you book on the Expedia App.
Redeeming rewards
Expedia Rewards Voyager makes it easy for you to redeem points when you purchase travel items from Expedia.com. You can use points to get a discount on car rental purchases and hotel rates, or you can redeem points to get a flight and purchase coupon worth $25 or more.
One thing to note: If you are using points to redeem a flight, you must have enough banked points to buy the entire ticket. The “Use My Points” option will automatically appear at checkout if you do.
How much are points worth?
According to Expedia Rewards, 140 points is equal to a dollar off a booking, but your points are worth double that at thousands of Expedia VIP Access hotels.
