The Discover® Motiva credit card is truly unique among American credit cards in that its rewards structure is based on finance charge rebates.
The interest rebates, combined with an aggressive introductory balance transfer offer (3.99% for 12 months), make it an excellent card choice for borrowers looking to pay off an existing credit card debt as inexpensively as possible.
For example, a borrower with a $5,000 credit card balance on a credit card with an 18% APR making minimum payments would save $650 a year by transferring a balance to the Motiva Card, and that’s before the interest rebates.
The Motiva Card gives card members one month of no finance charges for every six months the card member makes on-time payments. This could bring the first-year savings on a $5,000 credit card balance to approximately $690.
In addition to Motva’s unique rewards program, our reviews of Discover’s customer-service, online account management, and fraud prevention and security measures have been excellent.
