Earning Rates
Earning rates
5- 4xdining
4X Altitude points on dining, takeout, and restaurant delivery on the first $2,000 in combined purchases each quarter (an $8,000 annualized 4X cap that yields up to 32,000 bonus Altitude points or $320 of redemption value per year just from dining; spend beyond the quarterly cap earns the base 1X rate, NOT 2X, per the U.S. Bank Cardmember Agreement footnote which describes the 4X category as 'restaurant, fast-food restaurant and bar purchases' on the first $2,000 per quarter)
- 2xgroceries
2X Altitude points at grocery stores and supermarkets, UNCAPPED (with the explicit carve-out that wholesale clubs and discount stores / supercenters such as Target, Walmart, Sam's Club, Costco, and BJ's are excluded from the 2X grocery category and earn only the base 1X rate per the U.S. Bank Program Rules footnote)
- 2xgroceries
2X Altitude points at gas stations AND electric vehicle (EV) charging stations, UNCAPPED (the EV-charging-station bonus category is rare among no-annual-fee cards and explicitly called out by the issuer; wholesale-club fuel stations, discount-store / supercenter fuel stations, and grocery-store fuel pumps will earn only the base 1X rate, per the U.S. Bank Program Rules)
- 2xstreaming
2X Altitude points on qualifying streaming subscription services, UNCAPPED (per the U.S. Bank issuer product page; qualifying streaming list includes Netflix, Hulu, Apple Music, Apple TV, Amazon Music Unlimited, Amazon Prime Video, AMC+, Disney+, Spotify, Pandora, Sling TV, YouTube TV, ESPN+, fuboTV, and similar, with the official current list maintained in the U.S. Bank Program Rules; bundles that include non-streaming services may not qualify)

1Statement credits
5- $15Annual Streaming Service CreditYearly
Automatic $15 statement credit per 12-month period applied within 2 statement billing cycles following 11 consecutive calendar months of eligible streaming-service purchases, account in good standing.
- Altitude Rewards Center redemption options at a fixed 1 cent per Altitude point
Altitude Rewards Center redemption options at a fixed 1 cent per Altitude point: redeem for statement credit (deposit to an eligible U.S. Bank deposit account), merchandise, gift cards, travel (booked through the U.S. Bank Altitude travel portal), and charity (charitable redemptions receive a 100% match from U.S. Bank, effectively doubling the redemption value when given to charity, per the U.S. Bank issuer product page)
- Altitude points DO NOT expire as long as the account is open and in good standing, per the U.S. Bank product page FAQ ('Points will not expire as long as you keep your account active'); maximum point value (1 cent per point) applies to deposit-to-account redemptions, and other redemption types (travel, merchandise, gift cards, statement credit) may have a different effective value depending on the catalog item
- Real-Time Rewards
Real-Time Rewards: Altitude Go cardholders can enroll in Real-Time Rewards, which sends a text after eligible purchases asking whether to redeem accumulated Altitude points immediately to cover that transaction; cardholders reply 'REDEEM' to apply points at 1 cent per point as a statement credit against the purchase, provided they have enough points to cover the entire purchase, per the U.S. Bank issuer product page FAQ
- $25Visa Signature card benefits
Visa Signature card benefits: the Altitude Go is issued as a Visa Signature product (qualifying applicants), which carries the standard Visa Signature benefit suite including Visa Signature Luxury Hotel Collection (best-rate guarantee, complimentary in-room WiFi, automatic room upgrade upon arrival when available, complimentary continental breakfast for two daily, $25 food / beverage credit, late checkout, VIP guest status), Visa Signature Concierge service (24/7 personal-assistance hotline), and Visa Signature roadside dispatch (pay-per-use roadside assistance, with the service call charged to the cardholder per the Visa Signature Visa Benefits Guide)
Perks & memberships
4- MembershipDining 4X scope is unusually broad for a no-AF card: covers sit-down restaurants, fast food / quick-service restaurants, bars, takeout, and restaurant delivery services (DoorDash, Grubhub, Uber Eats, Caviar, and similar third-party delivery merchants that code under restaurant MCC 5812 / 5814) per the U.S. Bank product page wording 'dining, takeout and restaurant delivery'
- No foreign feesNo foreign transaction fee on the U.S. Bank Altitude Go Visa Signature: international purchases are processed at the Visa wholesale exchange rate with no markup, per the U.S. Bank Schumer Box pricing terms (this is unusual and a strong perk for a no-annual-fee dining card; the more common no-AF U.S. Bank Cash+ Visa Signature carries a 3% foreign transaction fee, so the Altitude Go is the better travel companion of the two)
- RedemptionU.S. Bank Mobile App rewards management: redemption is initiated by logging in at usbank.com or in the U.S. Bank Mobile App, selecting 'View rewards' on the Altitude Go Card on the Dashboard, then selecting the 'Redeem rewards' button and choosing the redemption type, per the U.S. Bank issuer product page FAQ
- Authorized usersAuthorized users supported at no additional annual fee (the card has no annual fee for the primary cardmember, and U.S. Bank does not charge an authorized-user fee on the Altitude Go; all authorized-user spend earns Altitude points into the primary cardmember's pooled Altitude Rewards account)
More benefits & fine print (2)ShowHide
- 100% charity-redemption match: when Altitude points are redeemed towards a monetary charitable contribution through the Altitude Rewards Center, U.S. Bank will match the contribution at 100%, effectively doubling the redemption value when redirected to charity, per the U.S. Bank issuer product page FAQ
- NerdWallet 2024 Best-Of Award winner for Best Credit Card for Dining Benefits (the Altitude Go has won this category 4 times, per the U.S. Bank product page Awards and Accolades section), and Wallethub Best Credit Cards for Restaurants and Best Credit Cards for Streaming Services
