The Digital Services Agreement (“Agreement") governs your use of the digital financial services (“Digital Service(s)”) made available at www.usbank.com or through our mobile application(s) available on Android or iOS.
The availability of the Digital Services described in this Agreement may vary depending on how you access Digital Services (via website or mobile app) and some Digital Services are only available for certain account types, and may differ from services you receive at a U.S. Bank branch location..
This Agreement is revised periodically, and it may include changes from earlier versions. By using Digital Services, you agree to the most recent version of this Agreement, which is always available to you online at www.usbank.com and within our mobile app(s). If you have any questions, please contact us as described at the end of this Agreement.
Protecting your privacy is important to us. All information gathered from you in connection with using Digital Services will be governed by the Online Privacy Policy and any underlying privacy policy for your account(s). We will disclose information to third parties about your account or the transfers you make when it is necessary to complete the transfers you initiate using Digital Services, to verify the existence and condition of your account for a third party (such as a credit bureau or merchant), to comply with government agency or court order, or if you give us written permission.
We may monitor and/or record any communications between you and us (or our Service Providers) for quality control and other permitted business purposes. This monitoring or recording may be done without any further notice to you or anyone acting on your behalf. The communication that may be monitored or recorded includes telephone calls, cellular or mobile phone calls, electronic mail messages, text messages, instant or live chat, or any other communications in any form.
If you use any location-based feature (such as our ATM locator) you agree that your geographic location and other personal information (such as your unique device identifier) may be accessed and disclosed through the application or service. You may turn off location-based features at any time through the settings of your mobile device. If you disable location-based services, other features that use your location may not work until you re-enable location-based services.
Prevent unauthorized access to your accounts by keeping your Log-in Credentials confidential and ensure that you log out of Digital Services when you are finished.
We will never ask you to share your Log-in Credentials, and you do not need to share your Log-in Credentials to send or receive money using Digital Services. If you give another person or business access to Digital Services (either by sharing your Log-in Credentials or sharing your device), you agree that each such third-party will be authorized to act on your behalf and will be bound by this Agreement (and any separate agreement governing your account). We are not responsible for managing the authority of your third-party relationships, or the use of Digital Services by an authorized third-party using your Log-in Credentials or your device. Any activity performed using your Log-In Credentials or your device will be presumed to be authorized by you unless you tell us otherwise. If you have shared your Log-in Credentials with a third-party, and wish to revoke that access, you must contact us to block access to Digital Services until new Log-in Credentials are established. Our Shared Access feature (described below) allows you to delegate limited access to your eligible accounts without sharing your Log-in Credentials.
Contact us at 800-USBANKS (800-872-2657) (for Prepaid Account customers, contact cardholder services at the number on the back of your card) immediately if:
Biometric features
A biometric feature (such as a fingerprint or face scanner) is functionality that is built into many devices to provide options for unlocking the device and logging into apps. You have the option to enable the biometric functionality of your device to login to Digital Services using biometrics instead of using your Log-in Credentials. You acknowledge that any person who has a biometric feature stored in your device (or a person that looks like you) may be able to access Digital Services on that device. If you choose to use biometrics for Digital Services, it is your responsibility to control access to your device to prevent any unauthorized access to Digital Services.
If you believe that an unauthorized transaction has been made from your account, contact our Fraud Liaison Center. Contacting us right away will help reduce possible losses. We accept relay calls.

Consumer accounts
You will not be liable for unauthorized transactions or transfers involving your Consumer Accounts if you report any unauthorized transactions within 60 days of when we first deliver a statement to you disclosing an unauthorized transaction. If you do not tell us within 60 days after the statement was sent to you, you may lose any amount transferred without your authorization after the 60 days if we can prove that we could have stopped someone from taking the money had you told us in time. If a good reason (such as a long trip or a hospital stay) prevented you from telling us, we may, at our sole discretion, extend the period.
Business accounts
We may process any instructions submitted using your Log-in Credentials and such instructions are effective even if you did not transmit or authorize them. You agree to maintain appropriate accounting and auditing procedures to protect your Business Accounts from intentional or negligent misuse. You agree to promptly review all paper and electronic statements, notices, and transaction information we provide and to report all unauthorized transactions and errors immediately. You may not be liable for unauthorized transactions if you report them within 24 hours of the alleged unauthorized transaction posting.
Wealth Management, U.S. Bancorp Investments, and U.S. Bancorp Advisors accounts
If you believe that an unauthorized transaction has been made from your Wealth Management Account, your U.S. Bancorp Investments account, or your U.S. Bancorp Advisors account, you should immediately contact your account/relationship manager or call us at the phone numbers listed in this Agreement.
Credit card accounts
You are protected from unauthorized transactions as outlined in your cardmember agreement. If you believe that an unauthorized transaction has been made on your credit card, you should immediately call the number on the back of your card.
Prepaid accounts
You are protected from unauthorized transactions as outlined in your cardholder agreement. If you believe that an unauthorized transaction has been made in connection with your Prepaid Account you should immediately call the number on the back of your card.
Consumer accounts
Contact us at 800-USBANKS (800-872-2657) as soon as possible if you think your statement or transaction history is incorrect, or if you need more information about any transaction listed in your statement or transaction history. We must hear from you no later than 60 days after we sent the first statement on which the problem or error appeared. When reporting an error, please be ready to provide all the following:
If you tell us verbally, we may require that you send your request in writing within 10 Business Days of your verbal notification. We will tell you the results of our investigation no more than 10 Business Days after you notify us and will correct any error promptly. However, if we need more time to complete our investigation, we may take up to 45 days. In this case, we will provisionally credit your account within 10 Business Days for the amount you think is in error, so you will have use of the money during the time it takes us to complete our investigation. If we ask you to submit your request in writing and do not receive it within 10 Business Days, we may not provisionally credit your account. For errors involving new accounts, we may take up to 90 days to investigate your request and up to 20 Business Days to provisionally credit your account for the amount you think is in error. We will tell you the results within 3 Business Days of completing our investigation. If we decide there was no error, any provisional credit we provided will be revoked, and you will be responsible for refunding us the full amount of the provisional credit. We will send you a written explanation of why the claim was denied, and you may request copies of documents used in our investigation.
Other accounts
In case of errors or questions about any Business, Prepaid, credit card, U.S. Bancorp Investments, U.S. Bancorp Advisors, and Wealth Management Account(s), please contact your account/relationship manager or call the number on the back of your card as soon as possible.
Your use of Digital Services may be limited, suspended, or terminated if you do not maintain accurate contact information or if we cannot verify your identity. Changes to your contact information and communication preferences may be made within Digital Services or by contacting us. We are not responsible for any payment processing errors or fees incurred if you do not provide accurate account or contact information.
You authorize your wireless carrier to use or disclose information about your wireless account and your wireless device, if available, to us or our service provider for the duration of our relationship, solely to help us identify you or your wireless device and to prevent fraud. See our Privacy Policy to see how we treat your data.
You agree to maintain an active email account and it is your responsibility to notify us of any changes to your email address. By providing us with an email address, you agree that we may communicate with you via email and send you notifications about your account(s) in accordance with your preferences.
You represent that you are authorized to use the email address or mobile phone number that you use for Digital Services, and you expressly consent to receiving non-marketing emails or text messages from us (and Service Providers associated with Digital Services), from other users sending or requesting money from you, and from other participating network banks (or their agents) regarding transfers between participating network banks and you.
You acknowledge that any messages sent in connection with sending, receiving, or requesting money though the Zelle Network® are initiated by you and that we (and affiliated Service Providers) only facilitate the delivery of such messages on your behalf. To the extent required, you are responsible for gaining consent from any person or entity to whom you intend to send messages and/or money using any of the Digital Services.
Message frequency depends on your account settings and how often you use the Digital Services that utilize such functionality. In the event your mobile device is lost or stolen, you agree to update your information and make the appropriate changes to disable the use of your device. If you need assistance, contact us at 1-800-usbanks, 1800usbanks@usbank.com, or reply to the text message with the word “HELP.” To stop receiving text messages on your mobile phone, reply to the text message with the word “STOP.”
The text messaging features of Digital Services are available from all major wireless operators based in the United States of America (AT&T, Verizon Wireless, T Mobile®, Sprint, Metro PCS, U.S. Cellular®, and Cincinnati Bell). Text messages may be delayed (or not delivered) if your mobile device is not in range of a transmission site, placed in airplane mode, or if sufficient network capacity is not available at a particular time. Even within a coverage area, factors beyond the control of your wireless operator may interfere with message delivery, including your equipment, terrain, proximity to buildings, foliage, and weather. You acknowledge that urgent alerts may not be punctually received, that your wireless operator does not guarantee that alerts will be delivered, and that we, our Service Providers, and the wireless operators are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages.
All your eligible accounts are automatically associated with your digital profile and will appear on the account summary screen. We make every effort to ensure that your use of Digital Services is synchronized between the various means of accessing your account information. There are rare instances, however, where the information available through Digital Services may be delayed or different from the information available using other methods (such as at an ATM or branch location). Additionally, some information available at a branch or ATM may not be immediately available via Digital Services, or it may be described using different terminology. In the event of any discrepancies, the information related to your account(s) provided at a branch location will prevail over the information provided within Digital Services.
The account information listed on the account summary screen is not a substitute for your official periodic account statement, transaction history or other correspondence you may receive from us. Any legal notices that normally accompany your mailed statement will either continue to be mailed or delivered to you electronically in accordance with your account preferences.
You may add a unique nickname to your account(s) to help you identify and manage multiple accounts. Account nicknames are only visible to you and do not change the ownership rights of your account.
You may enable the virtual assistant on your mobile device (such as Apple Siri or Google Assistant) to display or speak the listed Available Balance on your deposit accounts (checking or savings) and display or speak the balance owed on your U.S. Bank credit card without logging in to the app. This feature is for informational purposes only, and you must use your Log-in Credentials before you are able to initiate transactions using Digital Services. You must enable this feature in the app settings before using the virtual assistant on your mobile device, and if you do so, it is your sole responsibility to maintain proper security measures (such as a screen lock on your mobile device) to prevent unauthorized persons from accessing your information.
Smart Assistant
Our Smart Assistant allows you to easily interact with Digital Services by providing voice commands or typed instructions. For example, you may view account balances, pay bills, and initiate select transactions, simply by engaging with the Smart Assistant and entering your request. Smart Assistant uses your prompts to perform actions or make recommendations, based on your requested action. Some features may have limited functionality as we continue to enhance our Smart Assistant, and we reserve the right to modify services without notice..
You can initiate a Smart Assistant session by tapping the microphone icon or typing in your request in the Smart Assistant search box. Be aware of your surroundings as any commands you speak, or audible responses you receive, may be heard by others. While using the voice commands in Smart Assistant, the microphone will remain active for seven seconds after activation and may react to any commands captured during that time – even commands you may not intend. Keep in mind that any commands initiated while using the Smart Assistant, even if not specifically intended by you, will be presumed to be authorized by you.
The Smart Assistant is provided as a convenience to you and is not used to authenticate your identity or otherwise control access to Digital Services. If you use the Smart Assistant features, you are responsible for confirming the on-screen action matches your request, and that you verify the accuracy of any Payment Instruction you provide. We retain a transcript of all commands/responses for quality control and customer service purposes.
Shared Access allows you to provide a third party (called a “Shared Access User”) with limited access to eligible account(s) without sharing your Log-in Credentials. You may add one or more Shared Access User to each eligible account(s) and assign a role (defined below) to each Shared Access User. The Shared Access User will use separate Log-in Credentials to access the account you specify in accordance with the role you assign. Depending on the role assigned to the Shared Access User, some Digital Services described in this Agreement may be disabled or have reduced functionality.
You are solely responsible for managing the level of access you provide to a Shared Access User and we are not responsible for any losses you or others may incur if your Shared Access User exceeds his or her authority or if you fail to revoke access granted to a Shared Access User. You agree to indemnify us and hold us harmless for any loss or damage you or others incur as a result of the actions of your Shared Access User.
Limited authority
Shared Access, and any roles assigned to a Shared Access User, is only applicable to Digital Services. Appointing a Shared Access User under this Agreement does not extend to telephone banking or banking at a branch.
Appointing a Shared Access User as described herein is separate from any other appointments or delegations you have made or will make in the future (i.e., agents under a power of attorney, a written designation of agent, etc.), and the authority of a Shared Access User is subject to the authority of any other appointed agent.
Shared access user roles
The authority of your Shared Access User is based on the assigned role. Any additional limitations placed on the Shared Access User, even if we have express written notice of those limitations, are exclusively between you and the Shared Access User.
View only: The Shared Access User will have limited access to the assigned accounts and will be able to view account information and select account documents. A Shared Access User with View Only access will not be able to conduct transactions on the assigned account(s).
View and transactional: In addition to viewing account information as described above, the Shared Access User will also have limited transactional authority on the assigned accounts to conduct internal transfers between your eligible deposit accounts, make internal payments to your eligible loans and lines of credit, and initiate external payments to the billers you have previously established using the bill pay service. You can review transactions initiated by the Shared Access User in the Transaction Log within the Manage Users dashboard.
Managing the shared access user
Adding a shared access user: Any person who has authority to make changes to the eligible account may add a Shared Access User by enrolling in the Shared Access service and following the instructions on the “Manage Users” dashboard.
The Shared Access User(s) will have the option to accept or decline the Shared Access User assignment. Once a Shared Access User accepts an assignment, and completes the Shared Access User enrollment, any assigned accounts will automatically appear on the Shared Access User’s account summary screen in the Shared Access section.
The appointed Shared Access User is not required to accept the assignment and may terminate the assignment at any time. Even if a Shared Access User accepts the assignment, we impose no duty or requirement for the Shared Access User to take any further action on the assigned account(s). You acknowledge that we have no duty or responsibility to monitor the acts of the Shared Access User or ensure that the acts of the Shared Access User are for your benefit or the benefit of the account. Any separate agreement, or required duty to act, is solely between you and the Shared Access User; we are not responsible for managing or enforcing any such agreement between you and the appointed Shared Access User.
Removing a shared access user: Any person who is enrolled in Shared Access that has authority to make changes to the eligible account may remove a Shared Access User by logging in to Digital Services and selecting “Remove User” within the “Manage Users” dashboard.
We reserve the right to remove a Shared Access User from the account(s) at any time, and for any reason, without further notice to you.
Notifications
The Shared Access User will receive an email notification of the Shared Access assignment (and any changes to the Shared Access User role).
Confidentiality
The Shared Access User is not exclusive to any account, or any person, meaning that a Shared Access User may have access to multiple accounts at the same time. You are responsible for determining if the Shared Access User has access to other accounts. Any additional limitations you impose on the access and the use of your account information, is strictly between you and the Shared Access User.
For most accounts, you have the right to receive paper versions of important documents for any account that you access electronically, but you may elect to receive electronic versions of account statements (“e-statements”), notices, and transactional receipts as detailed below.
Once you enroll in the electronic presentment of any document, you may no longer receive paper versions of the selected documents unless you specifically request it. Contact us to request a paper copy of any disclosure, notice or other document. Paper copies of required regulatory disclosures and tax statements will be mailed at no charge. Reverting to paper delivery, requesting copies of previously issued account statements, and requesting copies of checks or other account-specific items may incur a fee. (See your Consumer Pricing Information or Business Pricing Information disclosures for paper delivery pricing information.)
You are responsible for downloading and saving your electronic documents for your own purposes. If you close an account, you will no longer have digital access to the closed account or the associated electronic documents. Your final account statement will be produced on paper and mailed to you. You can request a paper copy of any past statement by contacting us.
E-statements
E-statements are published to your secure document repository accessed online or within the mobile app. Any account owner may enroll in e-statements for accounts in which they have an ownership interest. If an account has multiple owners, the enrolled account will no longer appear on any paper statement, but it will be available to all owners who use Digital Services. If you were receiving information for multiple accounts on your paper statement, please be aware that, after e-statement enrollment, you will begin to receive a separate e-statement for each account that is registered.
If you add a joint account owner, the joint owner will be able to see statements from the time they become a joint owner and may also be able to gain access to information from before the time you added them to the account by searching account history for specific transactions.
Generally, the cycle time for your e-statements will be the same frequency as your paper statements. When you start receiving e-statements, you (and any joint owner) will begin to build a seven-year electronic document history that will be available within Digital Services.
Tax statements
Tax statements are published to your secure document repository accessed online or within the mobile app. By default, you will receive paper versions of your tax statements and you must separately enroll for electronic delivery of tax statements for each eligible account. Once you initiate electronic delivery of tax statements, you will continue to receive the selected documents electronically until you change your delivery preferences as described below.
Account notices
Account notices are published to your secure document repository accessed online or within the mobile app. If you enroll in e-statements, you will also receive electronic versions of any notices that may be periodically provided for your account. For example, important annual disclosures that are normally provided with your paper statements will now be delivered to you electronically along with your e-statements.
Transactional receipts
Electronic transactional receipts will be delivered to your email in accordance with your notification and alert preferences.For most accounts, you have the option to receive select receipts for ATM and branch transactions – this option will be presented at the time of your transaction. Your electronic transactional receipt will be delivered to your email in accordance with your preferences.
Managing your paperless preferences
You may manage your paperless preferences online, by using the mobile app, or by contacting us. Note that for electronic tax statements, you must unsubscribe in writing. If you opt-out of any electronically presented statement or notice, the next available statement or notice will be mailed to you at the address we have on file and the associated account alert will be discontinued. Statements and notices that were previously presented electronically will not be mailed to you. Any accounts that were previously combined on your paper statement will have to be re-combined by request at your local branch or by contacting us.
In addition to having access to images of canceled checks from your transaction history within Digital Services, you also have the option to add the images of cancelled checks to your e-statements. For accounts that are eligible to receive images of cancelled checks, you can manage this feature by logging in and updating your paperless preferences.
Account alerts are notifications and reminders (such as low balance alerts) related to your accounts. Account alerts and alert options vary based on the type of account. Generally, you may choose which account alerts you would like to receive, the account(s) to which the alerts will relate, and up to three email address or mobile numbers to which the alerts will be sent. You agree to notify us of any change to your contact information to ensure continued delivery of your account alerts. Message and data rates may apply, and the message frequency depends on the account settings you select.
E-statement availability alert
When you enroll in e-statements, you will be automatically enrolled in e-statement availability alerts. You must have a valid and actively monitored email address designated to receive your e-statement availability alerts and you may also opt-in to receiving duplicate alerts via text. This alert is a courtesy notification that your e-statement is available within the secure document repository accessed online or within the mobile app. We will not send you a paper copy (or otherwise change your paperless preferences) simply because an alert is returned as undeliverable.
By enrolling any account in e-statements, you agree that the e-statements availability alert constitutes the date of delivery of such e-statement. The statute of limitations regarding claims related to any items disclosed in a particular e-statement begins on the date we notify you that an e-statement is available. Any failure to access, view, print and/or save an e-statement will not impact the statute of limitations.
Managing your alerts
You may manage your alerts preferences online or within the mobile app. Some alerts are required and the alert options vary depending on the alert type.
Delivery of alerts
Account alerts will be sent at various times on any day that transactions meeting your specified criteria occur. You understand and agree that account alerts may not be sent on a “real time” basis and may be sent at the next scheduled delivery time after the specified transaction event occurs. We reserve the right to change the frequency or timing of account alerts.
Limitations of account alerts
Account alerts are for informational purposes only and are not intended to replace your account statements or any other communications we may provide to you regarding your account(s). Some account alerts may be automatically suppressed if we receive notice that you have filed for bankruptcy or if you have otherwise instructed us to cease and desist communication with you in relation to collection efforts on your account(s).
Paze is a digital wallet available at participating online businesses. Paze is a feature automatically included for eligible credit and debit card(s), allowing you to easily share your payment and shipping information with the business to complete the transaction or set up an online account with a business. When you activate Paze, you will need to provide the participating merchant the same email address that you use for banking with U.S. Bank. You will then be asked to verify your identity and accept the Paze terms and conditions. Within Digital Services, you may remove or add eligible credit or debit card(s) that are visible to you within Paze. Using Paze does not change your underlying account agreements. When your eligible U.S. Bank card is replaced or re-issued, we may automatically provide Paze, Early Warning Services, LLC, and your card network, with updated information about your eligible card payment credentials..
Restricted use
We reserve the right to refuse to honor Payment Instructions that reasonably appear to be fraudulent, erroneous, or in violation of this Agreement.
You agree that you will not use Digital Services for any of the following payments or requests for payments:
We reserve the right, but assume no obligation, to terminate your ability to use Digital Services, or limit your ability to transfer money to specific recipients, if we deem such activity to be potentially unlawful, abusive, offensive, or unwelcome by the recipient. In no event shall we be liable for any claims or damages resulting from your use of Digital Services for prohibited payments.
Accuracy
It is your responsibility to ensure the accuracy of any information that you enter, and you will be responsible for any transaction processed on your Payment Instruction even if you make an error. For example, you are still responsible for the payment/transfer if you mistype the account number, the telephone number, or the email address; if you incorrectly enter the dollar amount; or if you duplicate a transaction because you believe the initial transaction was not successful.
You are responsible for informing us as soon as possible if you become aware that any information you entered is inaccurate. Once informed, we will make a reasonable effort to recover a payment/transfer made to the wrong person or entity, but we do not guarantee such recovery, and are not responsible for damages resulting from information that is entered erroneously.
Authorization
When we receive a Payment Instruction from you, you authorize us to debit your Payment Account and remit funds on your behalf. You also authorize us to credit your Payment Account for the receipt of funds, including, but not limited to, those funds returned to us from Recipients or cancelled and returned to you because the processing of the transaction could not be completed. When you use Digital Services to make transfers from credit accounts, you agree that we may take any action required to obtain cash advances on your behalf, including charging your linked credit account without your signature. Each transfer made from a credit card account is treated as a cash advance from that account and is subject to the terms of your cardmember agreement.
Adding an external account for transfers and payments
You will be required to validate your email address and you must add your designated External Account before you will be able to initiate any transactions involving an External Account.
Add your External Account by entering in the account type, the account number, and the ABA/Routing number of your External Account. We reserve the right to choose the method we use to verify your External Account. For example, you may be asked to confirm trial deposits into your External Account. Once you receive the trial deposits into your External Account, you will be asked to confirm the amounts that were deposited.
External Account Authority
You represent and warrant that you have full transactional authority (i.e., the ability to initiate credits, debits, and withdrawals) on the designated External Account and that the External Account has no restrictions limiting such authority (i.e., a fiduciary account where you are the agent or trustee, an account blocked by a court order, an account that is subject of a garnishment order, etc.) You agree to indemnify and hold us and our Service Providers harmless (including the payment of reasonable attorney’s fees) from any and all liability to third parties related to the stated authority of your External Account or any actions we take pursuant to your External Transfer instructions.
Insufficient funds
If there are insufficient funds in the Payment Account to make the payments/transfers you have authorized, we may either refuse to make the payment/transfer or we may make the payment/transfer and thereby overdraw the Payment Account in accordance with the overdraft protection plan (if any) you have for your Payment Account. You are responsible for any overdraft fees incurred, please see the Consumer Pricing Information or Business Pricing Information disclosure, as relevant to your account, for any overdraft fees that may apply. See Your Deposit Account Agreement for more details on when these fees may be imposed.
Scheduling payments/transfers
It is your responsibility to schedule payments/transfers in a manner that ensures your bills will be paid on time, and you are responsible for any late payment or finance charges that may be imposed as a result of your failure to schedule your payments with enough time for the payment to be delivered to the Recipient/Payee.
If you have arranged for pre-authorized recurring payments that will vary in amount, your biller is required to notify you of the amount to be deducted from your Payment Account ten calendar days before the payment date. You are responsible for making adjustments to your Payment Instruction to account for any changes in the amount due to your biller.
Payment/transfer methods
We reserve the right to select the method for completing your Payment Instruction. These methods may vary depending on your Payment Instruction (like choosing a delivery speed option) and include an electronic payment method, an electronic to check payment, or a paper check issued on your behalf. Funds remitted to the Payee via paper check will be dated as of your selected payment date and will not be deducted from your Payment Account until the paper check is presented to us for payment.
At our discretion, we may process your Payment Instructions and send funds to the Recipient/Payee before successfully debiting your Payment Account. If we complete such a transaction and are not able to debit your Payment Account, you agree to the following:
Limits on liability
Mobile check deposit: You indemnify and hold us and our Service Providers harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, damages, losses, liabilities, penalties, and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney fees and court costs) arising directly or indirectly due to any of the following:
Payment/transfer services: We are responsible for your actual losses that are directly caused by our failure to initiate or cancel your properly entered and transmitted Payment Instruction. However, we will not be liable for any of the following:
Managing your payment instructions
You have options to manage the Payment Instructions you establish using Digital Services. As stated in more detail below, your ability to cancel or edit a payment/transfer will depend on the way the payment/transfer was initiated, the delivery speed you selected for the payment/transfer, and whether the payment/transfer has begun processing.
Scheduled and pre-authorized recurring payments/transfers: If your payment/transfer has already started processing, you will be unable to cancel the payment/transfer. For scheduled and pre-authorized recurring payments/transfers that have not started processing, you must cancel or edit the Payment Instructions at least three Business Days before the scheduled payment/transfer date. If you order us to cancel a scheduled or preauthorized recurring payment/transfer at least three Business Days before the payment is scheduled, and we do not do so, we will be liable for your losses or damages.
Instant payments/transfers: Instant Payments process within seconds of your selected payment date, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including weekends and holidays. Instant Payments initiated for same-day processing cannot be canceled or edited.
Responding to a request for payment: Payments initiated in response to a request for payment are processed as Instant Payments. Your ability to cancel or edit a payment made in response to a request for payment depends on whether you chose a payment for same-day processing or a future date. You may cancel or edit a scheduled payment any time before the scheduled payment date. Payments scheduled for same-day processing cannot be canceled or edited.
Domestic wire transfers: A wire scheduled for a future date may be canceled or edited any time before the scheduled payment date. A wire transfer is irrevocable once payment has been transmitted to the Recipient’s bank. At your request, we may ask the Recipient’s bank to return funds previously transferred, but you acknowledge the Recipient’s bank is under no obligation to comply with this request. A wire transfer initiated for same-day processing cannot be canceled or edited.
Small business ACH: Same-day small business ACH payments cannot be canceled or edited. One-time ACH payments scheduled for a future date can be edited or canceled any time before 7 a.m. CT on the scheduled payment date; after 7 a.m. CT on the scheduled payment date, the payment cannot be canceled or edited.
Zelle® payments: One-time Zelle® payments process immediately and cannot be canceled or edited. You may cancel or edit scheduled Zelle® payments at any time before the scheduled payment date. You may also cancel a pending Zelle® payment that the Recipient has not claimed.
Stop payment order
In addition to your options for managing Payment Instructions, eligible Consumer and Business Accounts, as well as eligible credit card accounts, may permit using Digital Services to initiate a stop payment order. A stop payment order is a formal request to stop the payment of a paper check, series of checks, an electronic payment (ACH/Debit) or a recurring credit card payment. If you believe your check book, debit or credit card is lost or stolen, or you otherwise believe someone may attempt to initiate unauthorized transactions on your account, please call our Fraud Liaison Center immediately (877-595-6256). Stop payment orders are described in more detail in the account agreement for your account. You may be charged for a stop payment order, depending on your account. For Consumer and Business Accounts, the charge for each stop payment order will be the current charge for that service as detailed in the Consumer Pricing Information or Business Pricing Information disclosures.
Submitting a stop payment order does not guarantee that the payment will be stopped; our ability to process a stop payment order will depend on the payment method and whether final payment has been made. A stop payment order does not change the existing agreement you may have with the payee and the payee may still have the right to collect payment. If you need to cancel a stop payment order, you may cancel the request within Digital Services or by contacting us. Stop payment orders that are canceled through Digital Services or by calling us will be processed immediately. If you notify us in writing, it can take up to seven Business Days to process the cancelation.
Electronic payments – ACH/Debit: You must request the stop payment order at least three Business Days before the scheduled payment date to ensure that the payment has not started processing. If your electronic payment has already started processing, or has completed processing, you cannot initiate a stop payment order or otherwise stop the payment. A stop payment order for an electronic payment does not expire. If you order us to stop a preauthorized recurring payment at least three Business Days before the payment is scheduled, and we do not do so, we will be liable for your losses or damages.
Paper payments: You may request a stop payment order for a paper check (or series of checks) drawn on your account that has not been presented for payment. If the paper check has been presented for payment, or has already been paid, you cannot initiate a stop payment order or otherwise stop the payment. A stop payment order for a paper payment will remain in place for up to 24 months.
Mobile check deposit is a service that allows you to remotely deposit paper checks into an eligible Consumer or Business Account. We will process and collect your Electronic Deposit through the check collection system just as we would a paper check.
You may only deposit items made payable to you individually or to you alternatively with another person or persons (John Doe or Jane Doe); jointly payable items (John Doe and Jane Doe) may not be deposited using mobile check deposit unless both parties have endorsed the item. We reserve the right to reject any deposit for any reason.
The following items are specifically not eligible for mobile check deposit:
Depositing your check
If you believe you may have deposited a check more than once, please contact us immediately.
Endorse the check: The check must be endorsed by all the payees of the check (except alternate payees) and deposited into one of the payees’ accounts.
Enter the amount of the check: Enter the amount of the check carefully, as you are responsible for any errors you make in the mobile deposit process.
Create a check image: Mobile check deposit will use the camera on your mobile device to take a picture of the front and back of your check.
Confirmation and receipt: Within minutes of submitting an Electronic Deposit, you will receive an email message from us confirming that we have received the Electronic Deposit. After we have confirmed receipt of your deposit, you will receive a second message from us indicating whether your deposit has been rejected or accepted for processing. If you receive error messages indicating that the Electronic Deposit has been rejected, then the check must be physically deposited at your local bank branch or ATM.
Performance of mobile check deposit may be affected by external factors such as communication network latency. An Electronic Deposit is not considered “received” by us unless we send you a message confirming that we received it.
Deposit limits
There are limits to the amount that you may deposit at any given time using mobile check deposit as follows:
Customers with certain deposit limits will have their entire deposit amount held for five Business Days, with funds available by the sixth Business Day. See “Delayed funds availability” below for more details. Deposit limits vary depending on many factors, including your deposit history and the length of your relationship with us. Deposit limits are subject to change as we continually evaluate these factors. Your current deposit limits will always be displayed on screen at the time of deposit.
Funds availability
This policy only applies to deposits made using mobile check deposit; deposits made at a branch location or ATM remain subject to the funds availability policy outlined in the most current version of Your Deposit Account Agreement and may have faster funds availability. We are not liable for transactions you initiate before the funds are available for your use. Until you receive confirmation that the funds are made available, you may not withdraw the funds in cash and we may not use the funds to pay items that you have written or honor other withdrawals you request. If we pay items that you have written or honor other withdrawals before funds are available to you, you may incur a fee if you overdraw your account.
Mobile check deposit is available 24/7/365, but the availability of the accepted deposit is subject to the following Business Day processing cutoff times:
Delayed funds availability
In certain circumstances, and at our discretion, your entire deposit (or a portion of your deposit) may be delayed for a longer period under the following circumstances:
We will notify you if we delay your ability to withdraw funds, and we will tell you when the funds will be available. In most cases, funds will be available within one to seven Business Days after the recorded day of your deposit.
Returned items and other problems with your deposit
If a check is returned to us for any reason, you agree that we may charge your account for any and all fees associated with the returned item.
You are responsible for the items you deposit that are returned to us unpaid and for any other problems involving your deposit even after the item has “cleared,” we have made funds available to you, and you have withdrawn the funds.
Marking, retaining, and destroying original paper checks
To mitigate the risk of fraud or the presentment of duplicate items, you agree to clearly mark on the original paper check that the item has been deposited electronically. Do so after you receive confirmation that the deposit was received and accepted for processing by U.S. Bank.
Retention and destruction: Retain all checks for at least two Business Days after the deposit is made in case a check is returned and you need to re-deposit the original item. You agree to destroy all deposited checks as soon as reasonably possible thereafter and no later than 30 days after deposit.
Re-presentment: If we determine that we require the original paper check to process your deposit, you are responsible for providing to us the original paper check, or if the original paper check has been destroyed, for obtaining a replacement check.
Limitations of mobile check deposit
Once a Check Image has been accepted for deposit, we are not able to delete or remove the item from the collection process and it becomes subject to the “Funds Availability” policy for mobile check deposit.
You may be prevented from using mobile check deposit if:
We will take reasonable measures to ensure that mobile check deposit is available, but we are not liable for system failures or temporary service disruptions that cause mobile check deposit to be unavailable. If mobile check deposit is unavailable; you are responsible for carrying out your business through alternative channels.
Representations and warranties
With respect to each Electronic Deposit, you make any representation or warranty that would have applied had you deposited the original paper check. This includes representations and warranties we make on your behalf when we transfer, present, or originate the Electronic Deposit created from your Check Image. These representations and warranties include, but are not limited to, that: (a) the transmissions contain accurate images of the front and back of the original checks; (b) the transmissions contain all necessary endorsements; and (c) no depository bank, drawee, drawer, or endorser will be asked to make a payment based on an item that it has already paid.
You may transfer funds between the eligible accounts you hold with us (“Internal Transfer”), or between the eligible accounts you hold with us and your External Account (“External Transfer”). In most cases, you may transfer funds to and from accounts in which you have an unrestricted right to withdraw funds or borrow money.
Types of transfers

Funds transfers: You may initiate a one-time, scheduled, or recurring transfer of funds between any of your associated eligible Consumer, Business, U.S. Bancorp Investments, Wealth or verified External Account(s).
Prepaid account transfers: Funds transfers to or from your prepaid account are limited and have different timing and delivery options than described below; see your cardholder agreement for details.
Timing of transfers
The timing and delivery of your transfer is determined based on the type of transfer and the delivery speed option that you select. The available delivery option and the applicable cutoff time varies by account and will be displayed in the online or mobile session before you initiate the transfer. These timing options describe the delivery of the funds and not when the funds will be made available for use in your account(s). Please consult the funds availability policy of your account(s) for more information.
Standard transfers: Funds transferred using the standard transfer delivery option will typically be delivered to the receiving account within one to three Business Days from the selected transfer date. One-time standard transfers initiated before the daily cutoff time will begin processing immediately. One-time standard transfers initiated after the daily cutoff time will begin processing on the next available Business Day. Scheduled standard transfers will begin processing on the selected transfer date.
Instant transfers: Funds transferred using the instant transfer option are processed as an Instant Payment and will typically be delivered to the receiving account within seconds of the selected transfer date, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, including weekends and holidays. This option is only available for eligible accounts.
Internal transfers: Internal Transfers initiated before the daily cutoff time are generally posted to the receiving account immediately. In some cases, transfers involving a U.S. Bancorp Investments account may be delayed up to three Business Days.
Limitations on account transfers
Availability: External Transfers may only be used to transfer funds to or from other United States financial institutions.

We have partnered with the Zelle Network® (“Zelle®”), a convenient way to send, receive, and request money to or from a Payment Account by using an email address or a mobile phone number. Zelle® provides no deposit account or other financial services and you may not establish a financial account of any kind with Zelle®. Zelle® neither transfers nor moves money; all money will be transmitted by the participating network bank.
With Zelle® you can initiate:
Zelle® is intended to help you send money to friends, family, and other people or businesses you know and trust. Do not use Zelle® to send money to anyone you do not know or trust. You agree that neither we nor Zelle® are responsible for resolving any dispute you have with another person or business you have sent money to, or receive/requested money from, using Zelle®.
Enrolling with Zelle®
To send or receive money with Zelle® you must enroll with Zelle® by linking a Payment Account to your email address and/or a mobile number. You may link more than one email address and/or mobile number to the same Payment Account, but you cannot link the same email address and/or mobile number to more than one Payment Account.
The email address and/or mobile number you provide must be one that you regularly use and intend to use for an extended period of time. You may not enroll in Zelle® with a landline, Google Voice, or a Voice over Internet Protocol number.
You agree to immediately notify us and update any of your enrolled email addresses or mobile phone numbers that are transferred, surrendered, or otherwise compromised; failure to do so may result in delayed or misdirected payments.
We reserve the right to unenroll any email address or mobile number that you enroll with Zelle®. For example, we may unenroll your enrolled email address or mobile number after a period of inactivity, or if we receive notice from your wireless operator that you have changed your phone number or changed mobile service providers.
Managing your Zelle® recipients
You may manually add Recipients to your Zelle® Recipient list by typing in the first and last name of the Recipient along with the Recipient’s mobile phone number and/or email address.
You may also grant permission for the U.S. Bank mobile app to access your personal contact list stored on your mobile device. This allows you to easily add a personal contact to your Zelle® Recipient list simply by tapping the name of the contact.
Zelle® QR Code
You may add a Recipient or share your Zelle® recipient information (i.e., a registered name and the associated email address and/or phone number) by Zelle® quick response (“QR”) code using your mobile device. You grant us permission to access your camera or photos on your mobile device in order to scan another user’s Zelle® QR code or share your Zelle® QR code.
After a scan of another Zelle® user’s QR code is completed, you must confirm that you would like to add the Zelle® user’s name that will appear on your screen. When adding Recipients using a QR code, be sure to confirm that the name that displays after the QR code scan is the name of the Zelle® user you intend to add as a Recipient.
Zelle Ready Contacts
Zelle® Ready Contacts is an additional, optional feature that allows you to see which of your contacts are already enrolled in Zelle® – making it easier to pay your Recipients with confidence. With your permission, we will share the name, mobile number, and email address for your personal contacts with Zelle® to validate which of contacts are already enrolled in Zelle®. Zelle® does not store or otherwise use your contacts for any other purpose.
Sufficient funds
We debit funds from your Payment Account when you initiate a transfer of funds to another person, and you agree to maintain enough funds in your Payment Account to cover any payments you initiate through Zelle®. Any line of credit linked to your Payment Account as overdraft protection is not included as part of your sufficient funds. We have the right to reject or suspend any transaction you initiate using Zelle® if you do not maintain enough funds in your Payment Account.
Transaction limits
For security reasons, we limit the amount of money you can send or request through Zelle®. Your current Zelle® limits will be displayed on screen at the time of your Zelle® transaction. We may change these limits at our sole discretion based on periodic risk assessments.
Fees
Business Accounts that receive money through Zelle® are not charged a processing fee. Consumer Accounts are not charged any fees to send or receive funds using Zelle®.
Receiving money
All transfers of money to you shall be performed by a Network Bank per the direction of that Network Bank Customer and at all times subject to the terms and conditions of the relevant service agreement between that Network Bank and its customer, including without limitation any restrictions or prohibitions on permissible transactions. Most transfers to you will occur typically within minutes, but to protect you, us, Zelle®, and other network banks, there may be other circumstances when a payment may take longer. For example, a payment may be delayed if we need additional time to verify your identity (or the identity of the person sending money), to prevent fraud, or to meet regulatory obligations. If we delay or block a payment that you have initiated through a request for money, we will notify you in accordance with your contact preferences.
If you are receiving money from a business or government agency, the transaction will be delivered in accordance with both this Agreement and the procedures of the business or government agency sending the money.
Sending money
When you send money, the receiving financial institution may execute your Payment Instructions by exclusive reference to the registered email address or mobile number you enter, even if the email address or mobile number does not correspond to the name of the intended Recipient. The financial institution holding the receiving account may choose not to investigate discrepancies between the registered email addresses/mobile number and account names, and we do not have the ability to investigate discrepancies between registered email addresses/mobile numbers and account names at other financial institutions.
Most transfers from you to other users will occur typically within minutes, but to protect you, us, Zelle®, and other network banks, there may be other circumstances when a payment may take longer. For example, a payment may be delayed if we need additional time to verify your identity (or the identity of the person receiving money), to prevent fraud, or to meet regulatory obligations. If we delay or block a payment that you have initiated through a request for money, we will notify you in accordance with your contact preferences.
If you are sending money to a Recipient that has not enrolled with Zelle®, the transfer may take up to two Business Days from the day the Recipient responds to the payment notification by enrolling in Zelle®. You understand that a Recipient to whom you are sending money and who is not enrolled in Zelle® may fail to enroll with Zelle®, or otherwise ignore the payment notification, and the transfer may not occur.
Once a request to send money using Zelle® has been processed, it cannot be modified or canceled,. You agree that, except as required by law, you, and not we, are responsible for resolving any payment dispute between you and a Zelle® Recipient. This section does not limit any obligation we have to resolve unauthorized transactions and errors- for Consumer Accounts (under Regulation E), or any other legal or regulatory requirements that may apply. Please see the “Reporting Unauthorized Tractions” and “Reporting Errors” Sections of this Agreement for more information about contacting us regarding unauthorized transactions and resolving errors on your account.
Requesting money
You may use Zelle® to request a payment by sending a short message to any person’s email address or to a mobile phone number that is already registered with Zelle®. The person receiving the request will have the option to pay the full amount requested or decline the requested payment. You acknowledge that a payment request is not a guarantee that you will receive payment, and that your payment request may be ignored or rejected.
Funds requested through the request money feature are not credited to your account, and therefore not available for your use, until the person receiving the request initiates a payment to you. You will receive confirmation from us when the funds have been credited to your account.
You may cancel requests at any time before the receiver of the request initiates a payment to you; all unanswered requests will expire after 30 calendar days.
You agree that you are not engaging in the business of debt collection by attempting to use Zelle® to request money for the payment or collection of an overdue or delinquent debt; to request money that is owed to another person; or to collect any amounts that are owed pursuant to a court order.
Requests for money are solely between you and the other party. Neither we nor any of our Service Providers assume responsibility for the accuracy or legality of such requests and do not act as a debt collector on your behalf or on behalf of the sender of a request for money.
We reserve the right, but assume no obligation, to terminate your ability to send requests for money in general, or to specific people/businesses, if we deem such requests to be potentially unlawful, abusive, offensive or unwelcome.
Message content
You are responsible for all communications you send through Zelle®. We and other Service Providers have the right but not the obligation to monitor and remove content that we at our sole discretion find objectionable.
Unsuccessful transactions
We will notify you if we are unable to complete the payment for any reason.
When you send money, the Recipient is not required to accept the payment. If the Recipient does not claim the money within 14 calendar days, Zelle® automatically cancels the request and returns the money to your Payment Account.
With Digital Services, you can make and manage one-time payments or pre-authorized automatic recurring payments to eligible accounts you hold with us, to another person, or to a business located in the United States.
Types of payments
One-time payment: You may establish a one-time payment to any Payee located in the United States.
Recurring payment(s): You may establish pre-authorized recurring payments to any Payee in the United States. When establishing your Payment Schedule, you must choose:
Scheduling and processing one-time and recurring payments
The cutoff time for processing one-time, scheduled, or recurring payments varies, when you establish a Payment Instruction, the cutoff time for your payment will be displayed on the screen.
When scheduling a payment or establishing a one-time payment, we automatically select the first available payment date for your Payee – you have the option to select a later payment date. The selected payment date is the date when your payee will receive the payment and the payment may begin processing prior to this date.
Payment dates that fall on a non-Business Day will be automatically rescheduled to the first available Business Day before your selected payment date.
Express delivery: Express delivery is an optional feature that allows you to make a same day or overnight payment to your selected biller. When available, the earliest express delivery payment date for each Payee will be displayed when you are scheduling the payment. Typically, same-day payments are available for Payees able to accept electronic payments and overnight payments for Payees that only accept paper check payments.
Express delivery is $14.95 per payment. Express delivery is one of many options available to deliver a payment to a Payee and there may be alternate lower-fee or no-fee options available.
You can change or cancel your AutoPay enrollment at any time. If you change or cancel your AutoPay enrollment, it is your responsibility to review the status of your payments to determine if they will continue to be processed until the AutoPay cancelation or change takes effect. You may need to manually cancel the payment in addition to canceling your AutoPay enrollment. You may not be able to cancel certain payments that are pending or already in process. We reserve the right to cancel your AutoPay enrollment at any time.
Early check presentment
If a payment is received by the Payee and presented to us for payment before your requested payment date, we will be responsible for any fees and charges you incur as a result of not having sufficient funds due to a payment being presented before your requested payment date. If you notice an item that has posted before the requested payment date, please notify us immediately.
Limitations
Transaction limits: We reserve the right to limit the frequency and dollar amount of transactions from your Payment Account(s) for security or regulatory reasons and to charge or limit access for payroll payments.
Payee restrictions: You can only pay Payees within the United States and U.S. Territories. We reserve the right to refuse to pay Payees.
Your bill payments will not include your Payee's standard remittance slip. Some Payees may take more time to process your payment if the remittance slip is not included, and some payments sent without the remittance slip may be processed by your Payee at a different address. As a result, you should contact your Payees to determine the proper address and amount of lead time for scheduling your payments
Account restrictions: Restricted accounts, including court-ordered blocked accounts, accounts with administrative holds, and accounts that require two or more signatures may not be designated as a Payment Account. If a Payment Account later becomes a restricted account, you agree not to use that account to make payments and you agree to notify us of the change.
Safe debit account: If your Payment Account is a Safe Debit Account you are subject to the following additional limitations:
Please see the U.S. Bank Safe Debit Account Terms and Conditions and the Safe Debit Account Pricing and Information Guide for more information related to your Safe Debit Account.
Bill discovery
Bill discovery may be available as an optional feature that is designed to help you find and add billers to your profile. With your permission, we search our merchant database and use information from your credit report to generate a list of potential billers, and you choose which billers are added to your list. By using this service, you authorize us to make a soft inquiry on your credit report for the exclusive purpose of finding potential billers. A soft inquiry generally does not impact your credit score, is not visible to other creditors, and does not incur a fee. This soft inquiry will be displayed on your credit report as: ND FISV/CKFR.
Digital access to bills
Digital Bills (or a “digital bill”) is an optional service allowing you to import the payment information from select third-party billers (“billers”). You must separately enroll for each eligible biller that you wish to include. Depending on the biller, a digital bill may only import the payment amount and the payment due date and may not provide any other information contained on a biller’s full bill statement. To use Digital Bills, you must provide us information about your account with the biller so that we can retrieve your available bill payment information.
Activation: The biller reserves the right to accept or deny your request to receive electronic bills. The presentment of your first electronic bill may vary from biller to biller and may take up to 60 days, depending on billing cycles.
Notification of bill payment information: Once you have enrolled a digital bill, you will receive a notification in accordance with your contact preferences when the available bill payment information for the bill cycle of each biller has been posted. In the event you do not receive a notification, it is still your responsibility to monitor your billers to ensure the delivery of your bills. You are responsible for ensuring timely payment of all bills.
Paper bill statements: Not all billers will permit you to receive a complete bill statement through Digital Bills. Please also be aware that setting up a digital bill may shut off your paper statement option with the biller. You are responsible for checking with your biller(s) regarding the impact of using Digital Bills on your receipt of paper statements.
Cancelation: The biller reserves the right to cancel or eliminate the ability for you to access your digital bill through us at any time. You may also choose to cancel a digital bill at any time. For most billers, cancelation will generally take one to three days, but may take up to 60 days (i.e., two one-month billing cycles) for some billers.
If you cancel a digital bill for any biller, it is your sole responsibility to arrange an alternative form of bill delivery through your biller. We will not be responsible for displaying any bills that are already in process but have not yet been delivered at the time you cancel a digital bill.
Non-Delivery: You agree to hold us harmless if the biller fails to deliver your bill, and it is your sole responsibility to notify your billers directly if you do not receive your electronic bills. Copies of previously delivered bills must be requested from the biller directly.
Accuracy: We are not responsible for the accuracy of your bills. We are only responsible for presenting the information we receive from the biller. Any discrepancies or disputes regarding the accuracy of your electronic bill summary or detail must be addressed with the biller directly.
Eligible billers can send you a request for payment (“RFP”). Similar to receiving an electronic bill, you will receive a notice of the RFP within Digital Services, and you can respond directly to the RFP by either dismissing the payment request or by authorizing a payment (payments may be authorized for immediate processing, or you may schedule a payment for a future date). Same-day or scheduled payments initiated in response to an RFP are processed as Instant Payments.
When you authorize a payment in response to a RFP, the funds will be made available to the Payee (or biller) within seconds on your selected payment date.
Dismissing an RFP
Dismissing an RFP is final. Dismissing an RFP from a biller will only impact your ability to pay that specific RFP and will not prevent you from receiving or responding to future RFPs from your biller(s).
RFP expiration
An RFP that you receive from a biller will include an expiration date that is established by the biller. If you do not authorize a payment in response to an RFP before it expires, you will be unable to authorize a payment in response to the RFP.
Blocking RFPs
We cannot prevent the delivery of RFPs. If you wish to block or stop receiving RFPs from any biller, you must contact the biller directly.
Prohibition on foreign payments
The RFP feature is intended for domestic payments only. It prohibits payments which involve either a sender or receiver located outside the United States. You agree that to the extent you either send or receive payments via RFP, you will not use your accounts to do so on behalf of a person who is not a United States resident or otherwise domiciled in the United States and that you will comply with all regulations of the Office of Foreign Assets Control.
You may initiate a wire transfer from an eligible Consumer or Business Account to a Recipient located in the United States by providing us with the Recipient’s name, address, U.S. bank account and routing number.

You agree to be bound by these procedures, and to give us reasonable, timely notice of any possible unauthorized use of your Log-in Credentials. We may process any wire transfer (as well as any permissible amendment or wire transfer cancelation request) that we believe you authorized if we act in compliance with our security procedures. Any such payment order will be deemed effective as if you made it, and you will be obligated to pay us the amount of that order, even though you did not authorize or transmit the order.
Fees
Wire transfers incur a fee established by U.S. Bank. See your Consumer Pricing Information or Business Pricing Information disclosures for pricing information.

You may initiate trades using U.S. Bancorp Investments Online portal or the U.S. Bancorp Investments mobile app. As a self-directed investor, you are solely responsible for any and all transactions you initiate using Digital Services. All orders entered are unsolicited and based on your own investment decisions or the investment decision of your duly authorized representative. You understand that all investments involve risk, that losses may exceed the principal invested, and that the past performance of a security, industry, sector, market, or financial product does not guarantee future results or returns.
You also understand that the following roles and responsibilities apply to your U.S. Bancorp Investments self-directed account(s):
As a self-directed investor, you appoint U.S. Bancorp Investments as your agent and authorize U.S. Bancorp Investments to take the following actions:
Choice of exchange: You understand that we may execute your orders on any exchange or market unless you specifically instruct otherwise.
Accessing an exchange: You may be able to access an exchange to initiate trades and understand that each participating national securities exchange or association asserts a proprietary interest in all of the market data it furnishes to parties that disseminate said data. You also understand that neither we nor any participating national securities exchange or association nor any supplier of market data guarantees the timeliness, sequence, accuracy, completeness, reliability or content of market information, or messages disseminated to or by any party. You understand that neither we nor any participating national securities exchange or association nor any supplier of market data warrants that the service will be uninterrupted or error-free.
Sell orders: Unless you expressly request to place an order as a “short” sale, and we grant that request, any order directing the sale of property shall be deemed to be a “long” sale. You also warrant and represent that you are the owner of the property that is the subject of such order and agree to deliver the property to us in negotiable form on or before the settlement date. In the event that you fail to deliver the property by the close of business on the settlement date, we are authorized, in our discretion and without notice to you, to i) delay settlement, ii) purchase comparable property to cover your position, or iii) cancel the transaction. We may also charge any loss (including Interest), commission and fees to your U.S. Bancorp Investments self-directed account(s).
Buy orders: For property that you direct us to purchase on your behalf, you agree to provide sufficient collected funds to cover such purchase on or before the settlement date. In the event that you fail to provide sufficient funds, we are authorized, in our discretion and without notice to you, to i) charge a reasonable rate of interest, ii) liquidate the property subject of the buy order, or iii) sell other property owned by you and held in any U.S. Bancorp Investments self-directed account(s). We may also charge any consequential loss to your U.S. Bancorp Investments self-directed account(s).
Distributions: In the event that you sell a security prior to its ex-dividend/distribution date, and you receive the related cash/stock dividend or distribution in error, you direct us to act on your behalf to pay such dividend/distribution to the entitled purchaser of the securities you sold. You guarantee to promptly reimburse us for said dividend or distribution.
Order handling and review: You understand that certain orders may be subject to manual review and entry as part of U.S. Bancorp Investments normal order handling process. These reviews may cause delays in the execution of your orders and may cause your orders to be executed at prices that are different from the price quotes obtained when the order was entered. You understand that U.S. Bancorp Investments reserves the right at its sole discretion to decline to accept any order or change its requirements for certain securities or classes of securities without advance notice. You understand that U.S. Bancorp Investments, at its sole discretion and without prior notice to you, may prohibit or restrict your ability to trade. U.S. Bancorp Investments cannot guarantee requests to cancel or modify an order. U.S. Bancorp Investments may receive late and/or erroneous trade reports from the marketplace where your order is executed, which may result in an adjustment to your order or the information on a trade execution reported to you.
Transaction review: You understand that certain transactions may be subject to review and must be in good order before approved by U.S. Bancorp Investments and processed; such reviews could cause a delay in processing. In addition, transactions not in good order can potentially cause delays. You acknowledge and agree to accept any risks arising from such delay.
Restrictions on Trading: You understand that U.S. Bancorp Investments may, in its discretion, prohibit or restrict the trading of securities, or the substitution of securities, in any of your U.S. Bancorp Investments self-directed account(s).
Extraordinary Events: You understand that U.S. Bancorp Investments shall not be liable for loss caused directly or indirectly by government restrictions, exchange or market rulings, suspension of trading, war, strikes, natural disasters or any other conditions or causes beyond U.S. Bancorp Investments’ control or anticipation, including, but not limited to, delays in the transmission of orders due to breakdown or failure of transmission or communication facilities.
