  • Annual Fee

  • N/A
  • Rewards Rate
    5% cash back at different places each quarter up to the quarterly maximum when you activate. 1% unlimited cash back on all other purchases - automatically
  • Credit Needed

Bottom Line

This is a strong offer for folks with good but not perfect credit. The rewards rate is powerful, and that end-of-year cash back match in year one is hard to beat.

Our Take

The Good

The cash back match at the end of year one is the real draw here. Discover automatically matches dollar-for-dollar the cash back you earn in your first year, with no cap and no minimum spend. Pair that with the ongoing rewards rate, and this card punches above its credit tier.

The Not So Good

The rotating categories require quarterly activation and are capped, which takes some upkeep. Plus, there’s no intro APR offer.
