Citi has released the calendar for the third quarter of 2023 for the 5% Cash Back categories on the Citi Dividend card. This card is no longer available for new applications, but many people still have it. It has no annual fee and also comes with rotating 5% categories, similar to Chase Freedom Flex and Discover It. Let’s take a look at the Citi Dividend 5% Q3 categories.
