U.S. Bank has a promotion coming up that can help you earn double the usual rewards on your credit card purchases. From November 30 to December 3, 2023, U.S. Bank is holding a “Double Bonus Days” event where you can maximize your credit card rewards.
Here is the breakdown of this promotion so you can take full advantage of it.
Offer Details: Double Bonus Days Promotion
Here are the key points you need to know about U.S. Bank’s Double Bonus Days:
- It runs from November 30 to December 3, 2023.
- Eligible U.S. Bank credit cards can earn double rewards during this period.
- The doubled rewards apply to:
- Purchases made through the U.S. Bank Shopping Portal
- Prepaid hotel and rental car bookings through the U.S. Bank Travel Center
- Activated cash-back offers
This gives you three different ways to take advantage of this promotion and maximize your earnings.
How to Earn Double Points on U.S. Bank Shopping Portal Purchases?
One way to double up is by shopping through the U.S. Bank Shopping Portal. This portal gives you bonus rewards when you click special offers and shop with participating retailers.
For example, you might normally earn 5 points per $1 spent at Walmart.com. During the Double Bonus Days promotion, you’ll earn 10 points per $1 instead.
To take advantage, simply log into the U.S. Bank shopping portal and click the available offers before making purchases. As long as the purchase is made between November 30 and December 3, 2023, you’ll earn double rewards.
Earning Double Cash Back
If you have a cash-back rewards card like the U.S. Bank Cash+ Visa, you can also take advantage of this promotion.
U.S. Bank frequently offers limited-time increased cash-back rewards on purchases with certain merchants. Normally these are an extra 1-5% back.
During Double Bonus Days, any activated cash-back offer will automatically pay out double the usual rate. So you might earn 10% back instead of 5% at a retailer.
To find and activate these cash-back deals, log into your U.S. Bank account select “Credit Card Rewards” and then “Cash Back Deals.” Click the offers you want and make sure they are activated prior to the purchase.
As long as the offer is active from November 30-December 3, 2023, you’ll earn double when the purchase posts.
How to Maximize Your Rewards?
To really make the most of U.S. Bank’s Double Bonus Days, keep these tips in mind:
- Activate cash-back offers ahead of time – Don’t wait until the last minute to activate deals or you might miss out.
- Plan travel redemptions in advance – Look at prepaid hotel and rental car options you can book during the promotion.
- Shop early – Make important purchases on November 30 to give rewards plenty of time to post by December 3.
- Stack rewards – Find shopping portal offers with activated cash-back deals to combine bonuses.
- Focus spending on your U.S. Bank cards – Make sure to use your eligible U.S. Bank rewards cards instead of other credit cards you have.
More Opportunities Coming in 2024
The good news is that the U.S. Bank plans additional Double Bonus Days events in 2024. Right now we don’t have details on exactly when they will be held next year.
But U.S. Bank says they will schedule seasonal Double Bonus Days quarterly in 2024. So there will be more chances to take advantage of this type of valuable promotion.
Verdict
Double Bonus Days from U.S. Bank can be a great way to earn extra rewards on purchases you would have made anyway.
If you’re planning to make certain purchases in the near future, consider completing them before December 3, 2023, since that is when Double Bonus days end this year. And if it turns out your spending isn’t enough to make the promotion worthwhile, you can always wait until 2024 when U.S. Bank plans to set up more opportunities to participate in Double Bonus Days.
Let me know if you have any other questions. I’m happy to help you maximize this opportunity to get the most value from your U.S. Bank credit cards.
