U.S. Bank Shopper Cash Rewards Visa Signature Card Review
Update: The new card is now live for applications.
U.S. Bank will soon launch a new product, the Shopper Cash Rewards™ Visa Signature® Card! The card brings something new to the table, with 6% cash back at several popular merchants such as Amazon, Best Buy, Walmart and more. The card is not live yet, but details have already been revealed on the U.S. Bank site.
U.S. Bank is also piloting a version of the card plastic that includes innovative LED-powered technology that lights up the U.S. Bank logo during contactless transactions. The card with the LED feature is the first of its kind in market and will be available at no extra cost to select cardholders while supplies last. Customers who do not receive the LED version of the Shopper Cash Rewards Card will initially receive a standard plastic version but may be able to upgrade to the LED version in the future pending availability.
