Over the last year or two we’ve seen a number of Amex Offers and Chase Offers for the inKind app. They now seem to be testing the waters with Citi as there’s a new Citi Offer giving $25 back when spending $50 or more.
What’s particularly useful about these types of deals is that inKind offers bonuses when buying their credit, so your $50 can go even further.
The Deal
- Spend $50 at inKind & get $25 back as a statement credit with a Citi Offer.
- Direct link to Citi Offers.
- Sign up for InKind through a referral link. You don’t have to sign up through a referral, but if you do, you’ll get a $25 reward to use on a dine of $50 or more (and so will we). Feel free to use one of our links with our thanks:
Key Terms
- Expires February 29, 2024.
- May be redeemed 1 time(s) by the offer end date.
Quick Thoughts
The very first Amex Offer which gave $50 back when spending $50 with inKind was obviously the best deal of this nature. However, getting $25 back on $50 spend still isn’t too shabby.
This offer gets better though when stacked with one of the many opportunities to buy inKind credit and get a bonus when doing so. inKind offers these deals in all kinds of denominations and the best ones seem to be the following:
There are deals where you can spend even less. However, those ones won’t work because you need to ensure at least $50 gets charged to your Citi card in order to get the $25 statement credit.
If you’re not taking advantage of this offer straight away, keep an eye out on SimplyMiles for an inKind offer there. They had one recently which I think expired on December 31, so hopefully that makes a return before the end of February. If it does the two should stack, despite the terms stating that you can’t combine offers.
Speaking of combining offers, there’s an additional small stack. The JetBlue TrueBlue shopping portal is giving 160 bonus points when paying with a linked card. Make sure your Citi card is linked there and that should get you some free extra points.
This promo just re-appeared for me in Citi Merchant Offers. April 30 expiry. All four of my citi cards were eligible.
For those in Denver, they just added another restaurant group which more than doubled the number of eligible restaurants.
I have gotten incredible value with inKind in my travels and recommend highly. Especially if one takes advantage of the Amex Offer for the inKind Pass.

[…] Hat tip to reader Davis and to FM […]
Able to use the spend $52 get $65 credit with the SimplyMiles offer to finish off the loyalty points needed to earn my lowly AAdvantage Gold status (but first time with an airline status thanks to the FM team’s write ups on it!). The $25 off Citi Merchant offer disappeared after adding to SimplyMiles so I unfortunately could not stack them.
[…] afternoon everyone, I hope your week is going well. A few days ago, Frequent Miler wrote a post about a new Citi Merchant Offer for InKind and I wanted to test it out before writing about the deal. Now through February 29, there is a […]
How fast do these gift cards take to process? Is it immediate to where I could just buy them when I’m at the table at the restaurant I want to use it or does it take long?
They process immediately, you just need to find the claim code and claim it
Data Point: I saw the inKind offer on my Simplymiles today. Added it and redeemed to double dip with Citi card offer
can you report back if this actually worked? I also added both the Simply Miles and Citi merchant offer, but now looking back to the Citi Merchant offer, it’s gone. A while back people were reporting not being able to added both.
I just checked my merchant offers section in Citi account and inKind offer still shows up. My inKind transaction is pending, so I will report back if I do receive the credit or not.
I also cannot find the inkind offer in my account anymore, even though I added them before making inkind purchase. So far still no credit from citi yet.
Update: I did receive the miles from Simply Miles and $25 credit from citi merchant offers 🙂
Me too!
Another update: I got both the offers (SimplyMiles and Citi offer) back again!!
Is anyone else’s InKind app showing a minimum “add funds” purchase in large increments only, starting at $300+?
Yes. Don’t use the app, use the links above.
The InKind deal is a fantastic deal for foodies. Some of the best restaurants are on it. Plus, new members receive $25 off their initial $75 meal.
ymmv, but im able to add both the citi + simplymiles offer
You can try to add both but only one will actually redeem
It’s no longer possible to stack SimplyMiles and Citi Merchant Offers.
Not sure when this changed but it was some time in the last few months. If you activate the Citi inKind Merchant Offer, you won’t have access to the SimplyMiles inKind Offer (and if you previously saw the SimplyMiles offer and subsequently activate the Citi Merchant offer, the SimplyMiles offer will disappear). The reverse is also true.
And if you try to use multiple tabs to activate both at the same time, one of the offers (whichever one the system detects you activated second) will error out and refuse to activate.
Reportedly, this is because the same company – Fig – is behind both SimplyMiles and Citi Merchant Offers and appears to have implemented some kind of logic to prevent stacking.
Yes, unfortunately I think the days of stacking simplymiles with citi card linked offers is over. Have been trying to do so for past 3-4 months with no luck
Oh wow, this is great (but sad) information since I hadn’t known that yet. However, in hindsight it does explain why I haven’t been able to find offers on both in a while…
Interesting. I enrolled in the inKind Citi Merchant Offer this morning on my Double Cash MC and then I was able to activate the AA Simply Miles offer this afternoon. Possibly it was allowed because I just added this Double Cash card to my Simply Miles account just prior to the Simply Miles offer activation?
I was able to successfully stack Simply Miles and a Citi Offer (Wine.com) as recently as December 4. Both the AA miles and $30 credit posted. Prior to that successful stack, I have also seen some offers disappear from one platform when activated on the other, though, so I think something more complicated is going on.
Update: I received both the $25 Citi Offer credit and 1,160 AA miles. Still waiting to see if JetBlue card-linked offer will be posted.
DP: Never got the True Blue points to post.
does SimplyMiles stack with the TrueBlue shopping portal?
Can someone confirm if the give inkind links above will trigger the merchant offer, or do we need to make a purchase at the restaurant with inkind to trigger it? Thanks!
Can confirm. The links above charge InKind and in my past experience have triggered any associated InKind offer.
The links above worked for me previously. However, the latest round with 4/30 exp date appear to not have worked (no credit for 3/17 purchase as of yet on 2 separate cards). Possibly the Citi Offer is requiring use of the MasterCard link inside the offer now.
There’s also a SimplyMiles offer which stacks nicely.
Can’t stack SimplyMiles and Citi offers on the same card anymore 🙁
Just learned this 🙁
There is also a SimplyMiles card linked offer for 1160 AA on a purchase of $50 or more.
