Credit Card Discounts


Blueprint for Financial Prosperity reminds us that credit cards carry more discounts than we realize. Visa, MasterCard, and American Express all offer discounts for cardholders. Discover's discounts are limited to business accounts.
If you have more than one card, shop around for the ideal discount. Both Visa and MasterCard offer savings at ACE Hardware; Visa's is $15 off a $75 purchase and free shipping, while MasterCard offers $10 off a $50 purchase, but no free shipping. If you are hungry, American Express offers discounts at restaurants.
You can't redeem these offer simply by using the right card to by the item at a brick-and-mortar store. The discounts listed on the websites are redeemable either as a printout coupon or an online discount code at checkout. — CAREY GREENBERG-BERGER
