Issuer Rules

Rules: The U.S. Bank Visa Platinum card is primarily designed for balance transfers and low introductory APRs, rather than offering a sign-up bonus. Eligibility typically requires excellent credit (FICO score 740+), a stable income, and a good credit history. U.S. Bank enforces a '2/12 rule,' meaning applicants are generally approved for a maximum of two new personal U.S. Bank credit cards within any rolling 12-month period. Existing U.S. Bank customers may have an advantage, but overall credit exposure with the bank is considered. Applicants must be 18 years or older and a U.S. resident.

Maximum Cards Per Issuer: 5

Minimum Spend Interval: N/A - This card typically does not offer a sign-up bonus requiring a minimum spend.

Shutdown Risk Triggers: High cumulative credit limit with U.S. Bank, suspicious account activity, defaulting on payments, excessive balance transfers without repayment, bust-out behavior, or opening too many accounts with U.S. Bank in a short period (even if within the 2/12 rule, high velocity can be a flag).
