Review for Biodegradable Discover® More Card


Show off your eco-savvy with the Biodegradable Discover® More Card! Issued by Discover, the Biodegradable Discover® More Card is the only credit card that will biodegrade in landfill or compost-like conditions.

This card is as easy on your wallet as it is on the planet. Through the rewards program, cardholders earn a 5% Cashback Bonus® in categories such as travel, gas, restaurants, movies, and more. Cardholders also earn up to 1% for general purchases and up to 1% Cashback Bonus on all other purchases automatically.

As an added bonus, cardholders can earn up to a double Cashback Bonus® when redeeming their rebates for gift certificates from participating Discover® Card Partners. There is no yearly limit on the amount of rebates that can be earned, and rebates do not expire as long as the account is active within a 36-month period.

This card currently has a 0% introductory APR on balance transfers for 6 months, and a 0% introductory APR on purchases for up to 6 months. The APR for this card is reasonable for those who qualify.

Aside from the rewards program, this credit card also provides several platinum benefits, including up to $500,000 in travel accident insurance, auto rental insurance, and various fraud and security protection services. Cardholders will also receive discounts on products and services at participating merchants and retailers.

Those who plan to spend over $3,000 a year (to earn the 1% cash rebate), plan to use their Cashback Bonus® award at participating retailers (to earn double cash rebates), and who plan to pay in full each month after the introductory rate expires (to avoid finance charges) will benefit most from what the Biodegradable Discover® More Card has to offer.

*It is important to note that like many cash reward cards, the highest rebate offered will not apply to all purchases made with the credit card. In this case, 1% will only be applied only to those purchases made after the cardholder spends over $3,000 in one year, so the overall cash rebate earned will be less than 1%, depending on the amount spent. For instance, if the cardholder were to spend $4,000, only $1,000 of this amount would be applied towards the 1% rebate. However, this does not take into account any promotional offers or the full 5% Cashback Bonus® award.
