U.S. Bank has introduced a unique way for small-business
customers to earn bonus rewards for simply having a credit card and
merchant processing relationship with U.S. Bank.
Unique to the financial services industry, the new rewards
program, Encore, offers small-business customers extra rewards when
they pair a U.S. Bank Business Edge™ Rewards Credit Card with a
U.S. Bank Payment Solutions merchant account.
“This is the first time an American bank is giving
small-business customers what they deserve: an easy way to earn
rewards for combining their card purchasing and processing with one
company,” said Cathi Stanton, head of small business credit cards
at U.S. Bank.
“Small businesses have earned rewards with credit cards for
years and now for the first time they can also earn rewards for
taking payments,” said Megan Heinze, head of merchant payment
solutions at U.S. Bank. “We continue to search for new and
innovative ways to help our customers manage payments effortlessly
so that they can focus their passion on where it matters most:
helping their businesses to thrive.”
Signing up for Encore is easy. Customers:
- open any U.S. Bank Business Edge
Rewards Credit Card;
- open any U.S. Bank Payment Solutions
merchant account and
- enroll online at
USBankBusinessRewards.com.
When net monthly transactions are processed through their
Payment Solutions merchant account, customers earn cash-back
rewards or rewards points. The rewards can accumulate fast and with
the U.S. Bank FlexPerks® Business EdgeTM Travel Rewards, just
20,000 FlexPoints equals an airline ticket worth up to $400. Learn
