Discover Financial Services Company Profile
Seems cardholders aren't the only ones getting paid to discover. Discover Financial Services, formerly a business segment of Morgan Stanley, is best known for issuing Discover-brand credit cards, which are used by more than 50 million members at some 4 million merchant locations in 30 countries and territories. The company's cards, which include several levels of business and consumer cards, repay cardholders a percentage of the purchase price each time they use their cards. But there's more to this business than just plastic. Discover Financial Services also has a payment-processing network and owns the PULSE Network ATM system.
