Issuer Rules & Restrictions

Maximum Cards per Issuer
You can hold up to 4 cards from this issuer simultaneously.
Shutdown Risk Triggers
Manufactured spending, excessive cash advances, too many new accounts opened in a short period, returned payments, suspected fraud, large purchases at excluded merchant categories to exploit bonus earning
International Friendly
May have limitations for international use.
Additional Issuer Rules
U.S. Bank generally limits personal credit card approvals to approximately 4 active accounts at any one time, and this card requires excellent credit (750+ FICO recommended) making it one of the more selective no-annual-fee cash back cards available. The $250 welcome bonus eligibility is restricted to new cardmembers who have not previously held this product; U.S. Bank does not publish an explicit bonus cooldown period but existing and previous Shopper Cash Rewards accounts do not qualify for the one-time bonus. Quarterly activation of both the 6% retailer categories and 3% everyday category is mandatory each quarter to earn elevated cash back rates — failure to activate by the quarter's end results in the base 1.5% rate on all purchases with no retroactive correction.
Military & Hardship
MLA Compliant
Complies with the Military Lending Act (36% APR cap for active duty servicemembers).
SCRA Benefits
U.S. Bank provides SCRA protections including a reduced interest rate at or below the federally required 6% cap on pre-service balances during active duty for eligible servicemembers; servicemembers must submit a written request along with a copy of their military orders to receive benefits.
Hardship Program
Hardship program available.
