Adding an authorized user to your U.S. Bank credit card is a simple process that can be done over the phone, online or through the U.S. Bank mobile app. Regardless of the method, make sure to have the potential authorized user’s first and last name, date of birth and Social Security Number handy.
If using online banking, first select “Customer Service” followed by “Self Service.” Under the “Credit Cards, Charge Cards and Personal Lines” section, select “Add Authorized User” on the specific card you would like to add someone to. From there, fill out the necessary information in the form and submit.
As for the U.S. Bank mobile app, first select “Manage cards” under the menu on your account dashboard. Then select “Add a user” to access the authorized user form. Submit the form after adding the required information.
Finally, authorized users can be added over the phone by calling the number on the back of your card or 800-285-8585. The authorized user’s credit card will be mailed to the address associated with the primary cardholder’s account.
You can add up to seven authorized users to your account. However, keep in mind that authorized users cannot be added to college, secured or young adult (co-signer) credit card accounts.
