US Bank Cash+: Department Store Category Question

Anonymous — Sun, 17 Mar 2019 00:02:49 GMT

Hello all I just wanted some DPs on what counts as a department store for this category. Besides Macy, JCpenny, Nordstrom, etc. Which stores count?

Would Target and Walmart be eligible? Clothing stores like h&m and forever 21?

From their site:

Most online purchases from these merchants also qualify. However, there are exceptions. For example, Sears.com purchases do not qualify.3 In addition, purchases at discount stores like Wal-Mart®, Target® and Costco® do not qualify.3

Below is a list of popular merchants in this category.2 While the list can be a helpful guide, U.S. Bank does not control how individual merchants or purchases are categorized.3

Bloomingdale's
Bon-Ton®
Boston Store®
Dillard's
JcPenney®

Kohl's®
Loehmann's
Macy's
Nordstrom
Nordstrom Rack

Off 5th
Saks Fifth Avenue
Sears®
Soma Intimates
Von Maur®

So no on Target and Walmart. Since there is a special Select Clothing category, I doubt if pure clothing stores will count as department stores.

Looks Neiman Marcus is not included in the list.

Target and Walmart are definitely not considered department stores, and anything that is specifically a clothing store (H&M, Forever 21) is likely excluded too and instead part of US Bank's "clothing store" category.

These are examples (unlike the select clothing category) so Neiman Marcus may well count.
