Using U.S. Bank Shopper at an ATM is a cash advance, not a normal purchase — it costs a fee, starts charging interest the same day (no grace period), and earns no rewards.
| Cash advance fee | Either $10 or 5% of each cash advance, whichever is greater Inferred by source |
|---|---|
| Cash advance APR | Around 30.49% variable APR (no grace period) Estimated by source |

ATM operator surcharges are set by the machine, not the card. To avoid all of this, use a debit card or cash for ATM withdrawals.
