Discover Card Offers 5% to 10% Cashback Bonus at ShopDiscover
By Seth Harbison
With the introduction of a new online shopping portal, ShopDiscover, Discover Financial Services is offering its Discover Card cardholders a new way to earn 5% to 10% cash back on their purchases. To use ShopDiscover, cardholders log in at http://www2.discovercard.com/shopcenter/ and then click through to Discover’s retail partner sites. When they make a purchase at those retailers, the enhanced bonus is automatically given on those purchases. Initial retail partners include Target, iTunes, Carnival, Foot Locker, Drugstore.com, and Beauty.com.
ShopDiscover is the latest way for cardholders to bump up their rebates from the standard CashBack Bonus, which allows for up to 1% cash back on purchases. In addition to ShopDiscover, Discover offers a “Get More” program that gives 5% cash back on certain purchase categories throughout the year. The Discover Gas Card offers a different spin, giving cardholders a 5% Cashback Bonus just on gas purchases.
According to Discover, its cardholders earned more than $600 million in Cashback Bonus rebates in 2005 and have earned more than $5 billion since 1986.
