Discover has released the details for the Q2 2016 category, for April, May, and June of 2016.
- Restaurants
- Movies
So far, the 2016 categories are exactly the same as 2015. As always, you’ll earn 5% on up to $1,500 in spend. And for those who are enrolled in the Double Cashback offer, it will end up as 10% back at year’s end.
The restaurant category is a nice category to get 5% back, and certainly to get 10% back. See also Best Credit Cards For Restaurant Spend.

love your blog…need help with figuring out how to pay ca property taxes over $20k. was looking for some credit card that can cover the 2.1% fee to use a credit card. does the discover it give the 2% cash back?
i have never had a discover card….which would be the best card to use to pay the property taxes?
Discover it Mile gives 3% back for the first year.
I was worried about them changing the schedule to match the Freedom, like they did last year (more or less). But, they didn’t, so now I’ll get two quarters of 5% back at restaurants!
Yup, always happy with multiple months of 5% back at restaurants.
