Card Issuers: Facts and Fictions

No Panda63, Discover IS the most accepted American Card in China because they are on the Union Pay Network, which is the largest network there. Please refer to the link and read "Where can I use my card in China?". Remember, I said most accepted, NOT most used. I was pointing out the acceptance fact because people earlier mentioned Discover's acceptance issues. Enjoy! www.discovercard.com/c...

Card Issuers: Facts and Fictions

Discover is actually accepted at over 4.5 million locations in America and is currently adding thousands of merchants a day with recent partnerships with 3rd party payment systems. I agree that Discover is a great long-term investment. Their only issue has been overseas acceptance and that wont be an issue in the years to come. They are the most accepted U.S. card in China and recently bought Diner's Club.

Discover is also a great company because they continue to win the Brand Keys Loyalty award and investing in a company who has the most loyal customers in their respective industry is usually smart. Add to that, they continue to win the award for best in Customer Service, 11 years I believe, in their industry. So add all that up, most loyal customers, best in customer service, HUGE acceptance gains in America, presently gaining acceptance overseas, the choice is clear that Discover Card is a great investment, especially long term.
