Citi Strata Elite World Legend Mastercard?
Citi Strata Elite World Legend Mastercard? That’s a mouthful, but that’s likely the name of the new credit card. Mastercard announced today a new suite of elevated benefits, The Mastercard Collection.
These benefits will be available across its World, World Elite and a newly created World Legend Mastercard cards which is a new higher tier and seemingly a Visa Infinite competitor.
The World Legend Mastercard is for higher-spending cardholders and will be the most prestigious consumer card to date. World Legend is available to banks globally today and will debut to cardholders in the U.S. in Q3 2025, followed by a broader international rollout.
We also wrote yesterday that the new Strata Elite card will launch in Q3 as well. There are no official details about the card yet, but we already have rumors. And since Strata Elite World Elite Mastercard seems unlikely, it could very well be the first World Legend Mastercard.
Mastercard says that with the The Mastercard Collection, cardholders can make the most of every moment with elevated, globally connected dining, entertainment and travel benefits:
- Dining: Priority reservations at sought-after restaurants, specially crafted menus and experiences that transform moments into memories.
- Entertainment: Ticket access, including presales, and premium seating for the most in-demand music events through our international partnership with Live Nation, as well as access to tickets for sporting events.
- Travel: Streamlined airport experiences, including access to 190 fast-track security lanes at over 30 airports and to more than 1,350 airport lounges at major international airports across 600 cities and nearly 150 countries, ensuring a smooth and stress-free start to their adventure. Coming soon to select international airports, Mastercard-exclusive dining spaces will also redefine the pre-flight experience by blending comfort, locally inspired flavors, and must-have travel amenities.
