Why limit only Google pay to in-store when others are allowed to be used online.
Don't recollect ever sending one to Discover. Been using them for 13 yrs now. So not sure if this a new requirement
Don't think paypal is included under 'digital wallets', this is their terms:
Digital Wallet purchases include some online purchases and some in-store purchases made with your smartphone, tablet, or wearable. Wallets that qualify include Apple Pay, Samsung Pay, Garmin Pay and in store with Google Pay. Apple Pay transactions included in this offer are transactions made in-store or online when using the Apple Pay button. Listed merchants are in no way sponsoring or affiliated with this program. Certain third-party payment accounts and digital wallet transactions may not earn 5% if Discover does not receive sufficient transaction detail for the purchase to be identified as being through a digital wallet. Discover does not determine the transaction details it receives for purchases. Using digital wallets to make purchases at gas stations will only earn a total of 5%.

Was going to apply for a Discover card but then encountered multiple reports that Discover demand form 4506-C and if you refuse, they'll close your account.
No, thanks!

The problem with Discover CC is that, I can never remember these calendar categories. It changes 4 times a year. Won't even both to play with Discover. Will stick to my 2% everything CC.
Understand what you are saying. It can be challenging to remember.
What helps is it's 2 categories per quarter. Even if I remember just one ….like restaurants now….it's an extra 3% in cash back. Usually remembering that's enough to jog my memory for the other one….currently Warehouse clubs.
I do get it…..I've definitely forgotten a bunch over the years.

I add it to my Google Calendar which is synced with my Alexa devices so it regularly pops up on Alexa to remind me.
Why limit only Google pay to in-store when others are allowed to be used online.
In my case, using Google Pay online from my laptop did not even work last time. When Discover offered the same deal in Q4 2022, I used it at Target store on my phone and it worked well. So I am sure the linkage between Google Pay and Discover card has no problem. Then when I tried to use Google Pay online from my laptop, my transaction was declined. I talked to both Google Pay and Discover support, they both said everything looked fine. If my transaction was declined, it must have been the other side's problem. After wasting over an hour on the phone, I finally had to give up.
Not sure if anyone else had the same issue, but this may be related to why the 5% cashback only applies to in-store purchases.

I use google calendar along with the "todo agenda" widget from f-droid.org which displays my calendar on my homepage....I track my Citi custom cash(whatever category the others do not cover), discover, chase freedom flex, and citi dividend ) I also have a BOA Custom cash that gives 5.25% (3% normally unless you have enough funds with BOA/Merril Edge) on all online purchases and a citi doublecash for a flat 2% on everything as well as another that does 3% on gas, restaurants, home improvement , and office supply). It keeps me on track.
You are missing out on alot just with the flat 2%.
"Gas Stations affiliated with supermarkets, supercenters, and wholesale clubs may not be eligible." That's nonsense! I'm noticing this more on credit card cashback offers.

I've had a discover for years, never had to, that includes credit and a savings account. But what is wrong with a creditor asking for employee verification before issuing a line of credit to an individual.

Pretty disappointing.
It's good wherever you can tap to pay.
And if you have an old Samsung Galaxy or Gear watch with MST, it's good at every physical credit card terminal, even if it can't do tap to pay...
No, thanks!

All of these cash back deals have to do with how they split discount revenue earned on each transaction between the issuer, network, and the merchant
