Discover has several card types depending on your needs.
The Discover it Chrome is a decent option for people with good credit, although it’s not as rewarding as many other cards.
It earns 2% cash back at restaurants and gas stations, on up to $1,000 in combined purchases per quarter (then 1%). And 1% cash back is earned for all other purchases.
Where most cards have an introductory bonus in the form of “spend a certain amount to get a certain reward,” Discover will instead double the total amount of cash back you earn in your first year, a great deal for new cardholders. The extra cash back will be awarded at the end of the first year.
You’ll also get See Terms at See Terms interest with this card, for both purchases and balance transfers. A regular rate of See Terms will follow that.
If you have a large balance on another account that’s accruing interest, you can transfer it to this card and get over a year to pay it off at no interest.
There is no annual fee for this card.
