The starter course for U.S. Bank's new foodie-focused credit card just got more filling.

New applicants will be eligible for the following: Earn 25,000 bonus points when you spend $1,000 in eligible purchases within the first 90 days of account opening. That's a $250 value redeemable towards merchandise, gift cards, cash back, travel and more. That’s a 5,000-point boost from its original offer at launch. Points are worth a penny each, so the new bonus represents a $250 value redeemable toward cash back, travel, gift cards and merchandise, although minimum redemption requirements apply.
