With the new credit card, what is the Discovery Miles earn rate? And do you still pay the annual fee to join Discovery Miles or is that now free?

Yea I think it’s free now. The earn rate is very low. It can be from 1-6.66% in miles. Therefore 0.1-0.666% in rand value back.

It’s a shame they dropped the multiplier. Maybe it will come back this year.

Should the miles earn rate be back to normal from today? Dont want to spend money at the capped 1% rate .

Earn rate for Miles seems to be based on transaction date and not the date it clears so should have been reset for all transaction from 01/01 already

Please explain,what do you mean it's returned to normal?
When you reach a cumulative spend level of R25,000 in a month your Miles earn rate is limited to 1% on any transaction incurred after hitting R25,000 (compared to 6.66% on transactions before reaching R25,000 if you are on Diamond status and black suite).

I also suspect that the R25,000 changes depending on what account you have(?), so does the 6.66%.

The 1% earn rate resets to 6.66% (in my example) on the 1st of each month.
