U.S. Bank Cash+

• Earn 20% more cash back (up to $20) on additional net purchases, online and in-store, once you spend $550 with your U.S. Bank Cash+™ Visa Signature® Card from November 1 through December 31, 2017.

You don’t earn the 20% bonus on the 2% or 5% categories, so this bonus is 100% worthless as it just means you can earn 1.2% cash back on all purchases AFTER spending $550+. Use a better card that earns at a high rate on all purchases instead.
