I wonder if that's for all of their cards? We've had Capital One as our default no FTF card, but if Discover is going to start doing it too.. maybe it's time I apply for a card from them.

I called and it applies for all of their cards.

That's good to hear, thanks! I've never had a card from Discover so I'm not sure how widely accepted they are overseas, but I'll definitely consider them more seriously now.

I wouldnt put much weight behind this.  Discover is pretty much only accepted in the United States as its not an intenationally recongised network.  You can use it wherever you see the Diners card logo internationally which is not very widely accepted.  Have Visa, Mastercard or AMEX with you when you travel.
