r/discover on Reddit: Are discover card accepted anywhere outside the US?
April 3, 2024 -
I had trouble using my discover card internationally when I was in Europe (Czechia, Germany, Switzerland, and France) and I'm going to India in a few weeks and I highly doubt it'd be accepted there given the obscurity of discover cards there. But in any case, has the discover card worked for any of you internationally and if it has let me know which countries. Thanks!

Is Discover usually accepted internationally?
I would say go with a Barclay card arrival (mastercard) or boa travel rewards card(Visa) and both are no annual fee cards and no foreign transaction fees. As far as acceptance of discover I'm not sure, I don't own any. Most citi cards are MasterCard I believe. I honestly don't know your chances for the 2 cards I listed either. Wish I could be more helpful.
More on reddit.comAnyone used a discover card internationally?
It depends on the merchant, not the country. I've used it internationally, both online and in-person. Some merchants will accept Discover, some Diners, some neither. Just ask. Bring a visa/mastercard/amex as backups. More on reddit.com
Using Discover internationally
Discover is very spotty internationally. Even in Montreal it wasn’t accepted most places. Discover seems to claim it is more widely accepted than it is. Recommend bringing another card. The odds it won’t be accepted in at least one of those cities is extremely high More on reddit.com

May 24, 2024 - Using a credit card while you’re an international student works similarly to a domestic credit card.

Where are Discover Cards Accepted? - ScoreSense
December 2, 2020 - You will be able to use your Discover card at most US locations that accept credit cards, but you should be aware that there are still some merchants who don’t accept Discover. If you intend to use your card for foreign travel you may want to check your destination countries and consider another card if Discover is not widely used there.
