Discover should make this a "we'll 5x your accumluated miles if you stay with us for 5 years." hahaha
It'd still take 5 years to get $20,000 CB from that.
Not too shabby actually.
Better than you would get from a 5 year CD right now...
My final thoughts with this card, although it's marketed as a "miles"card, in reality its a pure CB card. It's the redemption method that I see most people using it for. This card cannot be compared to Arrival or the likes because they are only 1% CB with penalty plus they have an AF. They are travel cards. This card is directly competing with the QS, and other flat CB cards with no annual fee.
If Costco picks Discover for exclusive CCC, this should be the card to have for shopping there.

This card looks like it's competing with Cap 1 Venture One, or possibly QS if point value is 1:1
No annual fee either, what do you guys and gals think?
Beaten by OP, findng out that all redemptions count the same (unlike Venture or Arrival, although they of course offer more)
So this is basically a 1.5% card: Less HP than Cap One QS, but also accepted in fewer places.
From my reading its actually a 3% card at least for the first year in that after 12 months they double the points you receieved in the first year. beyond the first year I agree.
