Primary card for five or six years with zero complaints; fraud alerts proactively caught fraudulent charges and replaced the card, though the $100 portal hotel credit is hard to use.

It's how well reviewed Citi Strata Premier is, out of 100. Negative and mixed reviews take points off, and so does having only a few reviews: a product needs plenty of them, compared with the most-reviewed products here, to reach the high 80s and 90s. It's worked out from reviews only, needs at least 5 of them, and updates as new ones come in.
Category: Travel rewards card. Type: Travel rewards credit card. Fees: $95 annual fee. Rates & rewards: 10x points on hotels, car rentals and attractions via cititravel.com; 3x on air travel, other hotels, restaurants, supermarkets, gas and EV charging.
