Update 2/13/23: Card is now live for new applications. There is also a taxi/rideshare benefit that wasn’t listed before.
U.S. Bank plans to launch a new small business card targeted towards ‘Road Warriors’ called ‘Altitude Connect World Elite Mastercard‘. A preview page of the card is now live and you can join the waitlist to be notified when it goes live in late February.
Card details are as follows:
- 60,000 point bonus after $6,000 in spend on the Account Owner’s card in the first 180 days of opening your account
- Annual fee of $95 waived for the first year
- Card earns at the following rates:
- 5x points on prepaid car rental and hotels when booked through the U.S. Bank Rewards Center
- 4x points on the first $150,000 in annual spend on travel expenses paid directly to providers such as airfare and hotels, plus on gas and EV charging
- 2x points on dining, takeout, restaurant delivery and cell phone services
- 1X points for all other net purchases
- As a cardmember you’ll receive a $25 statement credit after every three consecutive monthly taxi or rideshare transactions paid for with your card
- Complementary annual Priority Pass airport lounge membership plus four complimentary visits per membership year
Any DPs of the quarterly $25 rideshare credit including Uber Eats?
There is a visa version now based on benefits page:

How long after meeting the spend did anyone receive their points?
When the next statement closed.
Anyone do the $25 bonus for rideshare? Can we just add funds to our uber account as uber cash?
Let us know if that works for you. I did legit rides this quarter but have not been credited yet.
Wondering if anyone has any dp yet on adding uber cash funds for 3x? I have done for once so far..
Does the card have a MSR progress bar like the Altitude Reserve card?
I successfully funded Wings Financial with this card and the transaction finalized as a purchase.
Could only do it with an amount at/lower than my cash advance limit of 25% of CL. I had to call USB to turn on cash advance though. Apparently it is turned off by default on their biz cards.

Interesting. So I guess it was processed originally as cash advance. But changed to purchase eventually. A little bit risky though.
Correct. Agree that it is risky so I would only do it at banks that process other cards as purchases. This worked for me with the Triple Cash at Keypoint last year as well.
“Receive a 15% discount on a dedicated “Meet & Greet” escort service….”
Sounds like my type of card. 😉

why isn’t this on the list of best biz cards on the best bonuses page? seems like a really solid offer to me.
That page hasn’t been updated since this card became available. There are a few cards I’m sure will make the list when that update happens.
As?
Are the complimentary memberships tied to your name or can we share it?
Tried to apply but when I check status it always says cannot find application
