We are an independent publisher. Our reporters create honest, accurate, and objective content to help you make decisions. To support our work, we are paid for providing advertising services. Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Next” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. The compensation we receive and other factors, such as your location, may impact what ads and links appear on our site, and how, where, and in what order ads and links appear. While we strive to provide a wide range of offers, our site does not include information about every product or service that may be available to you. We strive to keep our information accurate and up-to-date, but some information may not be current. So, your actual offer terms from an advertiser may be different than the offer terms on this site. And the advertised offers may be subject to additional terms and conditions of the advertiser. All information is presented without any warranty or guarantee to you.

This page may include: credit card ads that we may be paid for (“advertiser listing”); and general information about credit card products (“editorial content”). Many, but not all, of the offers and clickable hyperlinks (such as a “Apply Now” button or “Learn More” button) that appear on this site are from companies that compensate us. When you click on that hyperlink or button, you may be directed to the credit card issuer’s website where you can review the terms and conditions for your selected offer. Each advertiser is responsible for the accuracy and availability of its ad offer details, but we attempt to verify those offer details. We have partnerships with advertisers such as Brex, Capital One, Chase, Citi, Wells Fargo and Discover. We also include editorial content to educate consumers about financial products and services. Some of that content may also contain ads, including links to advertisers’ sites, and we may be paid on those ads or links.

    Sour news for Discover credit card holders!

    After February 28, 2018, Discover plans to remove 5 benefits from their credit cards, including auto rental insurance and extended product warranty.

    After February 28, 2018, Discover Cards Will No Longer Have Perks Like Auto Rental Insurance

    Discover Card Eliminates 5 Benefits!

    A few weeks ago I told you that Discover will no longer match the referral bonuses and resulting sign-up bonuses from the Discover It at the end of your first cardmember year beginning January 1, 2018.

    Now, Discover will be removing 5 more benefits after February 28, 2018.  Wave goodbye to:

    Discover says not many folks are taking advantage of these benefits.  And they’d rather focus on other perks folks use more often, like their Fraud Liability Guarantee and account monitoring.

    For folks that regularly took advantage of these benefits to save money, this is a bummer.  But there are still lots of other cards that offer similar (and much better!) perks.  So you still have options.

    For example, the Chase Sapphire Preferred comes with primary rental car insurance and extended warranty benefits.

    Bottom Line

    After February 28, 2018, Discover is removing 5 benefits from their credit cards.  Discover cardholders will be losing:

    Discover may replace these unused benefits with other perks they think will be more popular.  We’ll have to wait and see!

    For folks who regularly took advantage of these benefits to save cash, this isn’t good news.  But there are still lots of other credit cards that offer similar perks!  So not all is lost!
