If you follow churning blogs or forums, you’ve no doubt seen that US Bank has double cash back rewards running through Saturday. But, I think based on the content out there, most of the major content creators haven’t actually used it, so let’s add some practical notes:
- There are multiple aspects of the double cash back promotion. Not only are card-linked offers doubled for the next three days (which is the only thing I’ve seen written), but the US Bank shopping portal’s earnings are also doubled for the next three days.
- It can be really hard to find US Bank rewards landing pages. So, I’ve linked to both variations, just make sure you login to your US Bank account first before trying these links:
– US Bank rewards hub (login to your US bank account first)
– US Bank card linked offers page (login to your US Bank account first)
– US Bank shopping portal (login to your US Bank account first)
Did you even know US Bank had a shopping portal, and that it earns points on point earning cards? Did you know that Lubbock is considered the one of the world’s capitals for burrowing owls? Did you know that owls can even burrow in the ground? (Wow, we’re off track today, my bad) - The card linked offers are their own kind of special:
– You have to add card-linked versions of the offer during the promotion or they won’t double
– They work for any personal card on your account, and maybe for any business card too
– Grocery stores occasionally show up
– Gaming works like Chase Offers or BankAmeriDeals
– The card-linked portal often just shows a spinner, and when that happens, try later (I don’t have a better solution, but if you do, please let me know)
This promotion is actually much more lucrative than you’d probably think. Always be probing, and good luck!
Mr. burrowing owl is shocked that content creators aren’t always experts when they write on a topic.
