I don't want to be stuck with one card design. With the More I can order as many cards and designs as I want. Plus my favorite design is the Dawn of Discover. Here it is:

 


OK, well...I guess whatever suites you.  If its a vanity thing it makes sense

Re: Discover IT conversion

I think on initial thought I didn't see the hype over switching to a card that is basically the same, and the design not being enough to lure me in.  Honestly though from looking at some of these extras like no foreign transaction fees, being able to pay until midgnight, and no overlimit fee are enough to make me make the call this afternoon to switch my More. 

Credit Cards:
Capital One Platinum MC (11/2009) - $2K | Discover IT(07/2011) - $1.25K | GECRB Visa (07/2012) - $2.17K | Citi Dividend Visa (12/2012) - $4K | Chase Freedom Visa (12/2012) - $5K | AMEX BCP (11/2014) - $5K | Chase Sapphire Preferred Visa (12/2014) - $9K

All Discover cards have no foreign transaction fees.

Re: Discover IT conversion

I did not know that, not like it made much of a difference, spent a year abroad and unfortunately never encountered an opportunity where I was able to use my card.

That one is my favorite as well. I used it at a local donut shop the other day, and the cashier didn't want to take it because she had "never seen an orange one like that before." I wanted to ask her how old she was.

The Discover card is accepted at more than just places that have the Discover logo. It's accepted where you see Dinacard, BC Card, UnionPay, JCB, Pulse, and Diner's Club.

Discover beats out all the others in markets like China and Japan. Everyone even tiny businesses in China/Japan that don't take the major three, always take Discover via the respective local payment networks of UnionPay and JCB Smiley Wink
