Why do we need a quarterly reminder for this? how is this a deal, this is a deal site not a reminder site
I've never forgotten to activate a quarterly CB but it's kind of dumb that we have to activate it.
It should just be automatic.
For those out there wondering what's for August and September... it's PayPal and Restaurants 5% CB going on July-Sept ✌

I am with discover since long but everytime I click on his deal and login it directs me to my account main page. I asked customer service and she has no clue but says maybe the deal is for Discover IT or Discover MORE members only, (I checked terms and condition where i was hidden in fine print). I have no clue what that is. If hat is the case then this post heading needs updated as for Discover IT or Discover MORE customers only.

OK then... glad you like it. Now, open Excel or even Google Sheets (so you can access it from anywhere) and copy the format using your credit cards.

Mine also has additional notes to the right (which I clipped for the pic) that tell me if they have any FTF, any special interest rates offered for a period of time, specific stores. Like Amex's 3% at Department Stores is only for Bealls, Belk, Bloomingdale's, Bon Ton Stores, Dillard's, JCPenney, Kohl's, Macy's, Nordstrom, Sears, and Stein Mart. And the 6% grocery EXCLUDES Walmart, Targe, and Amazon. My Amazon Visa offers No FTF, Travel Accident Insurance, Lost luggage Reimbursement, Baggage delay insurance. I also have notes for any bonuses and features of the cards when opened.

Even better. I made the simple one already but will add in the useful notes.

Quote from HansGruber :
All of the Discover 5% cashback quarterly deals are for a max of $75. That is 1,500 in eligible purchases. I have been a Discover card holder since 1996. Back in those days people used to make fun of me for having a Discover card.
they sure did make fun of you. i had one since back in the 80s where sears was the only place that would take one, i think the discover card was issues by some place called greenwood. for some reason i think i got the card because it allowed you to revolve with no annual fee and they were offering much bigger credit lines than the $200 you would get with a sears card. you could buy anything at sears from tvs to clothes to cameras and vcrs and car tires, oil changes, repairs, etc. love those diehard batteries.

Happened to check my Target circle offers and have an offer for 10% off gift cards up to $500 purchase, expiring tomorrow...guessing it's certain accounts only but worth a look. I don't see any exclusions on type of purchase for the Discover 5% so should work, right?

True, but that's an optional category, right? If for three months you use Discover for these online purchases, you could change your BofA bonus category to something else.

(Of course, BofA covers all online purchases, while Discover covers just these big three.)
I have a BoA car. But dosen't the category coupon gives 3%. How do u get 5.25% cashback?

To get that rate, you have to have Preferred Rewards [bankofamerica.com] level of Platinum Honors. Then it adds 75% to your rewards, so 3% * 1.75 = 5.25%. That comes with $100k of assets at BofA, often in an investment account at Merrill Edge.
