(b) Foreign Transactions
If you make a purchase or withdraw cash using your Debit Card
in a foreign currency, we will convert it to U.S. dollars using
conversion rates sourced from one of the following methods:
a government-mandated rate, a government-published rate or
an interbank or wholesale exchange rate, depending on the
country and currency in which the transaction is made.
We use the rate in effect on the conversion date for the
transaction. This rate may be different than the rate in effect
on the transaction date. “Interbank or wholesale exchange
rate” means the foreign exchange rate that banks charge each
other when buying and selling currencies.
(c) ATM Fees
We will not charge a fee for using an out of network ATM.
However, when you initiate a transaction with your Debit
Card at an ATM not owned by us, you may be charged a fee by
the ATM operator or any network used for your transaction,
including balance inquiries.

Card is the lesser of $5,000, or your available balance. For
new customers who open an account on or after August 18,
2018, the daily combined POS purchase limit is the lesser of
$2,500, or your available balance.
• The daily ATM withdrawal limit for each Account is the lesser
of $510 or your available balance. When you use an ATM not
owned by us, you may be subject to other daily limits set by
the ATM operator.
• These Debit Card transaction limits are in addition to
the limits set forth in Section 11 of this Agreement. For
security reasons, there may be limits on the number of ATM
withdrawals using your Debit Card.
• I n addition, we reserve the right to decline any Debit Card

illegal activity or any other unusual activity affecting your

PIN online through the Account Center or by calling our
automated system. You should protect your PIN as you would

(f) Freeze Debit Card
You may request that Discover freeze your debit card, which
means that new purchases (in-store, online, mobile or phone)
and ATM transactions will not be authorized, allowed or
processed with the debit card you have frozen. If more than
one debit card has been issued to access your Account,
such as a joint accountholder debit card, only the debit
card you have identified will be frozen. All other debit cards
issued to access your Account will continue to be available
for transactions. Freezing your debit card will not stop bill
payments, transactions that merchants have marked as
recurring, returns, deposits, dispute adjustments, internal or
external transfers, reward redemptions, or checks. You may
freeze your debit card by visiting the Account Center, or calling
customer service.

Accounts (excluding CDs), or transfer funds from such

another with new Accountholders or if at any time the validity
of a transaction is in question. Internal transfers scheduled for
the same day are processed immediately. Internal transfers
scheduled for the next Business Day or later are processed at
the beginning of the scheduled transfer date.

does not comply with applicable law will not be processed
