Frequently asked questions

In general, our credit card products are for customers with a credit score in the good to excellent range. We also offer several secured credit card products which are designed for people looking to build or rebuild their credit with responsible use.

Combined qualifying balances with U.S. Bank in open consumer checking account(s), money market savings account(s), savings account(s), CDs and/or IRAs, U.S. Bancorp Investments and personal trust account(s) are eligible for the Smartly Earning Bonus. Note: Balances in business accounts, commercial accounts, and the Trustee only (IFI) client relationship do not qualify.

Combined Balances are based on the average daily balance of the previous 3 months (calculated monthly) (or, for account(s) open less than 3 months, the average daily balance of the applicable time frame).  The applicable Smartly Earning Bonus will be determined by reviewing the Combined Balances in the qualifying accounts of each Cardmember (if there is more than one) and using the total Combined Balances of the individual whose accounts have the highest total.

If a U.S. Bank Smartly Card account has an Authorized User(s), the U.S. Bank balances of the Authorized User(s) will not be reviewed and will not qualify for determining the Smartly Earning Bonus.  The Smartly Earning Bonus that will be applied to your Account is determined within the first 5 days of each month, which means that the bonus applied to your Account may vary during a billing cycle.

See disclosure #1 below for more information on how we calculate combined qualifying balances.

A Bank Smartly Savings account is a relationship savings account with competitive rates that grow as your balances grow.

The monthly maintenance fee is $5 and is waived if an account owner is the owner of a qualifying product (Bank Smartly Checking account, Safe Debit account, or Bank Smartly Visa Card), or if one of the account owners is a minor (age 17 or younger).

The minimum balance for opening a Bank Smartly Savings account is $25.

U.S. Bank ExtendPay® Plans provide a payment option that allows you to divide eligible credit card purchases into affordable monthly payments with no interest – just a fixed monthly fee.

If your credit card account is eligible for a U.S. Bank ExtendPay® Plan, you’ll receive a notification via email, or you’ll see ExtendPay Plan options when viewing your card account details or eligible transactions online. The only purchases eligible for an ExtendPay Plan are those that were made within 60 days prior to signing up for ExtendPay, are over $100, and are less than your purchase balance when you sign up for ExtendPay.


ExtendPay Plan eligibility may change based on your credit card account activity.

Disclosures

U.S. Bank may change APRs, fees and other account terms in the future based on your experience with U.S. Bank National Association and its affiliates as provided under the Cardmember Agreement and applicable law.

*The 0% introductory APR applies to purchases and is valid for the first 12 billing cycles. The 0% introductory APR applies to balance transfers made within 60 days of account opening and is valid for the first 12 billing cycles. The introductory rate does not apply to cash advances. Balance Transfer fee of 3% of each transfer amount, $5 minimum will apply. When you make a payment, the amount up to your Minimum Payment is applied first to the monthly payment obligation for U.S. Bank ExtendPay® Plans and U.S. Bank ExtendPay® Loans if any, and then to non-Fixed Payment Program balances in the order of the lowest to highest APR. Any amount over your Minimum Payment is applied to balances in the order of highest to lowest APR.

† Balance Transfers transactions from other U.S. Bank National Association accounts are not permitted. You may cancel a balance transfer request within 10 days of account opening by calling 800-285-8585.

Net Purchases are Purchases minus credits and returns. Not all transactions are considered to be Purchases and eligible to earn rewards, such as transactions posting as Convenience Checks; Balance Transfers; Advances (including ATM withdrawals, wire transfers, traveler's checks, money orders, foreign cash transactions, betting transactions, and lottery tickets); interest charges and fees; credit insurance premiums; and transactions to (i) fund certain prepaid card products, (ii) buy currency from the U.S. Mint, or (iii) buy cash convertible items. Upon approval, see your Cardmember Agreement for details.

Account must be open and in good standing (not past due or overlimit) on the closing date of the billing cycle to earn and redeem rewards and benefits. Subject to applicable law, you may not redeem rewards, and you will immediately lose all of your rewards, if your Account is closed to future transactions (including, but not limited to, due to Program misuse, failure to pay, bankruptcy, or death). Upon approval, please refer to your Cardmember Agreement or Rewards Program Rules in the online Rewards Center by logging into usbank.com for additional information.

  1. Cash back rewards are earned under the U.S. Bank Smartly™ Visa Signature® Card program. These rewards are earned as “Points”, and U.S. Bank will credit your U.S. Bank Smartly™ Visa Signature® Card with 2 Points for every $1 in eligible Net Purchases. You may earn additional Points for a Smartly Earning Bonus if you:

    • Have or open a U.S. Bank Smartly® Savings account with a minimum opening deposit of $25; and
    • Have “Combined Qualifying Balances” with U.S. Bank in open consumer checking account(s), money market savings account(s), savings account(s), CDs and/or IRAs, U.S. Bancorp Investments and personal trust account(s) (business accounts, commercial accounts, and the Trustee only (IFI) client relationship do not qualify). The Smartly Earning Bonus tiers are:
      • Between $5,000 to $49,999.99, to earn a total of 2.5 Points per $1 (a base of 2 Points plus the Smartly Earning Bonus of 0.5 Points),
      • Between $50,000 to $99,999.99, to earn a total of 3 Points per $1 (a base of 2 Points plus the Smartly Earning Bonus of 1 Point), or
      • $100,000 or more to earn a total of 4 Points per $1 (a base of 2 Points plus the Smartly Earning Bonus of 2 Points).

      The Combined Qualifying Balance is determined as follows:

      1. First, at the end of each month an average Combined Qualifying Balance is calculated. The balance is based on a 90-day average balance of all qualifying accounts and is calculated by adding together the end of day ledger combined balances for every day in the last 90 days and dividing the total by
        1. 90 calendar days, or
        2. the number of days since opening an initial qualified account.
      2. Next, the Smartly Earning Bonus tier that is applied to your U.S. Bank Smartly credit card account is determined by one of two potential calculations: 
        1. For the initial evaluation after opening your first qualifying account and at the beginning of every calendar month thereafter, we will apply the Smartly Earning Bonus tier based upon the average Combined Qualifying Balance (as described above). 
        2. In addition, we will review the Combined Qualifying Balances on a daily basis to determine whether you qualify for a higher Smartly Earning Bonus tier based upon the day’s Combined Qualifying Balances. 

        If your daily Combined Qualifying Balances qualify you for a tier upgrade, you will be moved to the higher tier (within 5 business days). You will remain in that tier until you qualify for a higher tier based on your daily Combined Qualifying Balances, or the calculated monthly Combined Qualifying Balance qualifies you for a higher or lower tier.

        The Smartly Earning Bonus tier will be applied to your U.S. Bank Smartly credit card account within the first 5 days of each month or upon reaching a higher tier, which means that the bonus tier that will be applied to your account may vary during a billing cycle. The Smartly Earning Bonus is applied as of the Purchase transaction date (which may not be the date the transaction posts to the account).

        For joint accounts: The applicable Smartly Earning Bonus tier will be determined by reviewing the Combined Qualifying Balances in the qualifying accounts of each Cardmember (if there is more than one) and using the total Combined Qualifying Balances of the individual whose accounts have the highest total. (This means that all Cardmembers may be aware of the balance range of the Cardmember with the highest qualifying balance each billing cycle.) Balances of the Authorized User(s) will not qualify for determining the Smartly Earning Bonus tier. Points will expire if there is no reward, purchase, or balance activity on your account for 12 consecutive statement cycles.

  2. This card earns cash back rewards in the form of Points. To redeem as Cash Back in the values noted in this advertisement, Points can be redeemed as a deposit into an eligible U.S. Bank deposit account. Other redemptions, such as for statement credits and gift cards, may be at a reduced redemption rate.

  3. By clicking Apply, you authorize your wireless carrier to use or disclose information about your account and your wireless device, if available, to us or our service provider for the duration of your business relationship, solely to help us identify you or your wireless device and to prevent fraud. See our Privacy Policy for how we treat your data.

  4. From time to time we may offer to you the benefit of our U.S. Bank ExtendPay® Plans, which allow you to pay off balances in fixed monthly payments over time and still avoid paying interest charges on new Purchases. You may designate up to 50% of your credit card line ($100 minimum) in eligible credit card purchases and pay in monthly installments with just a small fixed monthly fee. Only Purchase balances are eligible for  ExtendPayPlans. Transactions identified as Advances or Balance Transfers (as defined in your Cardmember Agreement), and any interest or fees, including Annual Fee, do not apply. The only Purchases that will appear as "Eligible Purchases" in the enrollment process are Purchases that were made within 60 days prior to signing up for an ExtendPay Plan, are over $100, and are less than your Purchase balance when you sign up for an ExtendPay Plan. Any unpaid balance remaining on an ExtendPay Plan after the chosen pay-back period will be subject to the APR and minimum payment calculation for purchases outlined in the Cardmember Agreement.
