Earn 2% Cashback in Europe with Discover Card
DISCOVER CARD EUROPE – Discover Card is making a big push for their acceptance around the globe. We have already seen them offer additional cashback bonuses just for visiting Mexico and the Caribbean. Now, Discover is offering those traveling to Europe from June 1 to September 30, 2013 the chance to earn 2% cashback.
As typical, the promotion is capped at purchases up to $1,000, and this time, it is even restricted to select European states (see terms below).
You need to call to register, which is a good thing to warn Discover of your traveling to another country and to avoid the card getting locked.
Also, in case you were wondering, Discover Card does not charge any foreign transaction fees when traveling abroad, making your money work for you with the currency exchange.
* Sign up to earn an additional 2% on all purchases up to $1,000 ($USD) in France, UK, Italy, Ireland, Spain, Portugal, Germany, Austria, Denmark, Norway, Finland & Poland from 6/1/2013 (or the date on which you sign up, whichever is later) through 9/30/2013. This promotional reward is in addition to any other Cashback Bonus® you earn during this period and is based on $1,000 ($USD), up to a full 3% on each purchase. We are not responsible for merchant delays in processing. Please allow 2 billing periods from the end of the promotional period for this reward to be added to your Cashback Bonus account. See Cashback Bonus Program Terms and Conditions for further details about your reward program.

Thanks for the heads up! I’ll bring my Discover card this summer!
You are my new source on Discover card promotions!
I had not heard anything about this one, which is annoying since I just came back from 2 weeks in Europe. Just called Discover and asked why they didn’t mention it when I called before my trip to let them know I’d be traveling with the card. They apologized and applied the promotion to the charges I made during the trip.
Note: many merchants did not accept the card. The agent said it’s best to set up a a PIN for the card before you go and that should help.
