The Discover Student Clear Card is the ideal credit card for students who do not plan on carrying a balance on their card.

The interest rate is higher (which doesn't matter if you'll be paying your balance off in full each month), but the card offers a perk that many student credit cards do not.

This student credit card offers cardholders cash-back bonuses of up to 5-percent on purchases made with the card. When it's time to redeem your bonus, you can either get the money sent to you via check or have it credited to your credit card account. You can also choose to double your bonus by redeeming it at participating merchants. We like options, and this card doesn’t disappoint.

The website for the Discover Student Clear Card was very easy to work with. The one-page application was easy to fill out and the terms and conditions were clearly stated, eliminating the need to hunt down interest rate and fee information.

Filling out the credit application shouldn’t take you very long, as it’s all very self explanatory. Everything you may need is well placed in an easy-to-scan format and completing the application should take no longer than a minute or so.

Finding important information like ‘Contact Us’ is available on the Discover website, and not right on the specific credit card pages.

The fact that the Discover Student Clear Card has no annual fee is a huge plus, since many credit card companies are charging those new to the credit card market annual fees of $30 or more.
