Discover Card sent me an email to register for a travel promotion where after I register, I could get a $15 statement credit for $150 in travel spending.This is in addition to the 1% you regularly get for purchases. So effectively, this is a 11% cash back promotion. Per the T&Cs, this spending includes hotels, airline tickets, car rental, cruises, travel agency, limo and transportation services.
This amount is easy to spend on travel. The T&Cs don’t specifically say that gift cards are excludes so hypothetically I could purchase airline giftcards to use at a later date if needed. I have yet to try this but it should work.
