Episode Details

Chicago’s new “Chicago Rewards” program is set to launch this summer, offering visitors a $50 gift card for every $200 spent on attractions, hotels, or dining — a bold move to lure tourists and boost local spending. Designed with a simple digital receipt system, the six-month pilot aims to drive longer stays, deeper exploration, and economic growth as cities compete for travel dollars. With thousands of gift cards ready to roll out and data tracking in place, Chicago hopes this incentive will turn casual visitors into loyal fans — and maybe even earn a spot at the top of travelers’ must-visit lists.
