[Available Online] U.S. Bank Launches New Business Card ‘U.S. Bank Business Altitude Power World Elite Mastercard’

Update 2/7/24: Card now available online.

U.S. Bank has launched a new business credit card called ‘U.S. Bank Business Altitude™ Power World Elite Mastercard’. The card is only available for sign up in branch currently, but there is an overview online found here. Details of the card are as follows:

  • $195 annual fee
  • Sign up bonus of 75,000 points after $10,000 in spend within the first 90 days
  • Card earns at the following rates:
    • 2.5x points on all mobile wallet purchases (limited to first $5,000 each quarter)
    • 2x points on all other purchases

Apparently the card was created due to the Union Bank acquisition in order to product change those cardholders over. Overall the card doesn’t seem interesting or useful apart from the sign up bonus.

I got this card last year and with it I registered for the PP. I recently closed it, though. However, I do have the USBAltitude Visa Connect.

Does anyone know if updating the Priority Pass account with this other card, will automatically add the passes and renew the PP membership? Or is better to create a new account?

Approved as part of AoR with 4 apps in total. 3/4 were approved including this one (they lost one of the apps, grrrrr). I only got $3k CL hope they are cool with cycling…

Went to use it at Staples, declined. Tried smaller grocery purchase, declined. Apparently the card got frozen, had to call in. When your card is frozen they say to wait another 5-10 minutes past the decline in order to use (after you all the time waiting on hold). Hopefully this doesn’t happen again?

Did anyone get their ride share credit for Q4?

I tested a lyft cash reload and wondering if it works or not.

Oops, I posted in the wrong thread. Was inquiring about the biz altitude connect.

Lyft cash reload didn’t work for me.

Well I’m shocked. They must approve anyone with a good score. I can send DoC screenshots of my C1 credit wise to show I’m not lying on new accounts. I’m 20/24, 11/12, 4/6 and I was approved after it being pending last week. I didn’t call bc I figured I’d get the new account lecture. USB personal and business current customer.

Ink Premier is better, $1000 bonus, 2.5% unlimited cash back, and same AF

They have completely different conditions for 2.5%, no? Ink is purchases of $5k+ get 2.5%. This is 2.5% on all mobile wallet purchases up to the limit. So a purchase of $100 would not get 2.5% on the Ink but would on this card.

Ink Premier is much better, assuming you have large spend.

Maxed Mobile Wallet at 5k per quarter @ extra .5% is only $100 on a 200 AF card.

I’d argue that for legit biz spend, Ink Premier, Sparks Cash, VXBiz, or even BBP are all arguably better. Hell, you could argue Hilton Biz is better if you spend 25k and get the FNC plus points.
