Top perks
Let's take a look at what the Discover it® Miles credit card has to offer.
Unlimited 1.5X Miles per $1
The Discover it® Miles earns unlimited 1.5X Miles per $1 on purchases. You can redeem miles as cash back or apply them to travel purchases. They have a value of $0.01 per 1 mile no matter how you use them. For example, 10,000 Miles are worth $100.
Sign-up bonus
For new cardholders, Discover will match all the Miles you’ve earned at the end of your first year. For example, if you earn 30,000 Miles in that first year, Discover will give you another 30,000. This is one of the more valuable sign-up bonuses for consumers who put all their spending on a single credit card.

0% intro APR for 15 months
This Discover travel card has a 0% intro APR for 15 months on purchases and qualifying balance transfers. After the intro period, the go-to 18.24% - 28.24% Variable APR will apply, and there's a 3% intro balance transfer fee, up to 5% fee on future balance transfers (see terms)*.
You can use the intro APR to pay off costly expenses over time. Or, you can transfer over credit card debt and pay it down while avoiding interest charges. Make sure to complete your balance transfers by the date specified in the terms for this card. Also, do your best to pay off your full balance during the intro period to maximize your savings.
No foreign transaction fee
Like most travel credit cards, the Discover it® Miles doesn't charge a foreign transaction fee. The standard foreign transaction fee amount is 3% for many credit cards, so you should always have a credit card without this fee when you're traveling internationally.
Free FICO® Score
Discover makes it easy to monitor your credit score by including a free FICO® Score for every cardholder. This is accessible via Discover's app or online account management portal. Your FICO® Score is the one that most lenders use, so it's the best type of score to monitor.
