U.S. Bank reports to the credit bureaus once each month, within days after the end of your monthly billing period. U.S. Bank reports a credit card’s credit limit, account balance, payment history, and more to TransUnion, Equifax, and Experian.
After U.S. Bank reports your account information to the credit bureaus each month, it may take a few days before the updates appear on your credit report.

I can't agree with the narrative of this article. I have a U.S. bank credit card that has a billing period that closes around the 15th of the month at the latest (pay due date on the 10th), but U.S. Bank seems to delay updated activity until much later than "within days" after the billing cycle closes...typically around the 28th or so of the month, every month.
