Capital One Student Discounts

A student is anyone currently enrolled, or admitted and planning to enroll in the next 3 months, at an accredited university, community college or other higher education institution.

Although you are graduating, your Capital One Savor Rewards card stays with you. You’ll still keep all the same rewards and benefits on your card.

Every time you buy something, the merchant assigns your purchase a category code. Capital One uses these codes to figure out how much cash back you earn. Please note, Capital One is not responsible for codes used by merchants. Some merchants that sell food and drinks that are located within larger establishments (such as hotel restaurants or grocery store food counters) as well as some food trucks or food carts may not categorize themselves as dining merchants. Purchases made through third-party payment accounts, mobile or wireless card readers, mobile or digital wallets or similar technology may not receive a higher percentage reward, depending on how the technology is set up to process the purchase.

Purchases at restaurants, cafes, bars, lounges, fast-food chains and bakeries.

Ticket purchases made at movie theaters, sports promoters (professional and semi-professional live events), theatrical promoters, amusement parks, tourist attractions, aquariums, zoos, dance halls, record stores, pool halls or bowling alleys. This excludes golf courses, collegiate sporting events and non-industry entertainment merchant codes like cable, digital streaming and membership services.

A supermarket, meat locker, freezer, dairy product store and specialty market. Excludes superstores like Walmart® and Target®.
