Citi Double Cash MasterCard unlimited 1% + 1%
 
I just saw this card for the first time. It's still not on the Citicards site, so it must be brand new. Posting here in case anyone is interested.
2% unlimited cash back with no annual fee. I found this link through an affiliate site, but I've removed the affiliate code from the link.

Besides it being the ugliest card in the history of the universe :p , any thoughts?

Looks like an awesome complement/replacement for the Fidelity 2% Amex for the places that don't take Amex.

Interesting.

No mention of network affiliation (Visa/MC), and no mention of Chip type (Sig vs Pin).

Doesn't say what network it is on. Redemption threshold starts at $25, much lower than Dividend and Fidelity AMEX ($50).

I already have Fidelity AMEX so this doesn't make me want to have the card, unless there is more perks about this card.

Nice find this will fill the gaps for a lot of people. WTG

Citi 2% Unlimited Cash Back Card
 
this can replace the Barclaycard for people who don't travel often

Looks interesting... To me it would definitely replace Fidelity 2% and Arrival+.

A few people on myfico have (by apping today). Apparently PCs aren't possible till later in Sep.

Wonder if they'll have a signup offer for it? I'm planning to get the Arrival, but it may get canceled in month 11 in exchange for this puppy. Already have 5 Citi cards, though...if there is no signup offer, I might PC my Premier to it (since I have the Prestige).

Citi 2% Unlimited Cash Back Card

Damn, this does seem to beat out the arrival in a couple areas...

Contemplating getting it now -- any downsides anyone can think of? (except Citi aspect)

Arrival wins for year one (obviously with the signup). After that, the additional 0.2% from the Arrival would only offset the annual fee from the arrival if you spent >$44,500/year.

Arrival wins with no FTFs, Chip+Pin (I think?). Also, the Arrival is a WEMC, and no one knows what this card is yet.

But, most people have no FTF cards, and plenty of WEMCs. From a numbers game, this card wins from year 2 onward infinitum.
