Over spring break 2013, Discover Card offered 2% cashback bonus on all purchases made in Mexico. For those college kids going to party like a rockstar, signing up for the promotion was a no-brainer (and exactly what a burnt out college kids needed).

For your early summer travel plans, if you plan on heading to the Caribbean, Discover has a special promotion granting you 2% cashback on up to $1,500 in purchases. You must register and complete the purchases by June 30, 2013.

Currently I do not see an option to register for this promotion online; you are required to call 1-800-DISCOVER (1-800-347-2683) and ask to get 2% Cashback Bonus. I think this is actually very smart because it then alerts your card issuer of when you will be traveling out of the country, thus having you avoid getting your card blocked when on vacation.

In addition to earning 2% cashback bonus, you will also enjoy no foreign transaction fees while using your card in the Caribbean.

Want to earn 7% cashback bonus while in the Caribbean? Then make sure your card is registered for the quarterly 5% cashback bonus/5x miles. That means you can purchase all the lumber and boards you can carry to build yourself a hut or raft to stay a little longer. I am joking, because I find it funny the terms state you can stack this promotion with the quarterly 5% cashback, yet it is at home improvement stores. I think your only possibility would be if the local Caribbean home improvement stores carried gift cards.

You can use your card everywhere Discover cards are accepted on the following islands:

• Anguilla
• Antigua & Barbuda
• Aruba
• Bahamas
• Barbados
• Bermuda
• Bonaire
• British Virgin Islands
• Cayman Islands
• Curacao

*Sign up to earn an additional 2% Cashback Bonus on up to $1500 ($US) in purchases in the Caribbean after you sign up until June 30, 2013. This promotional reward is in addition to any other Cashback Bonus you earn during this period and is based on your current tier level, up to a full 3% on each purchase. This promotional reward is also in addition to purchases made in the quarterly 5% Cashback Bonus program if you are signed up for the quarterly program.
