NHL Discover Card

NHL Discover Card 5% cash back categories changed beginning April 1

From April 1 to June 30 Discover cardholders now earn 5% cash back rewards

  • at gas stations
  • with Uber and Lyft
  • at wholesale clubs such as Costco

Another incentive for new cardholders is that the Discover NHL card automatically doubles all the cash back on net purchases at the end of your first year only as a lump-sum bonus to the account. That 5% cash back becomes 10% savings.

New account holders also receive 0% financing on their purchases, on top of the rewards. However a minimum payment amount is due every month.

Unlike many other cash rewards credit cards, you can redeem the rewards for an account credit with no minimum amount necessary to reach before cashing them in.
