it Cash Back By Discover June 2023 Review
Discover it Cashback Review:
This credit card comes with a high cash-back reward system in rotating quarterly categories — however, a major drawback of this card is that those rewards don't get applied automatically, activation is required and spending caps apply.
Featuring a $0 annual fee, for those who don't mind putting in a little extra work to a little work to activate rewards, this credit card is well worth it.
