To get a Discover credit card PIN, call the number on the back of your Discover card and ask customer service for a PIN. You can also get a Discover credit card PIN by logging in to your credit card account and requesting a PIN through the Discover website. A credit card PIN is a four-digit code that you will need to get a cash advance at an ATM in the United States, or to make certain purchases when traveling abroad.
Best Way to Get a Discover Credit Card PIN
- Call Discover customer service at 1-800-347-2683 or call the number on the back of your Discover credit card.
- Inform the representative that you want a credit card PIN.
- Receive the PIN in the mail, over text, or by email. It’s unlikely that Discover customer service will be able to provide a PIN over the phone.
If you need a PIN for a cash advance, it’s important to note that cash advances have high fees and interest rates, so you’ll generally want to avoid them whenever possible. And while adding a PIN will make your card slightly more useful abroad, you’ll still be able to get around fine in most travel destinations without a PIN.

The short answer is that nothing is likely to happen if you don’t use your credit card for a few months. Not using your card could actually help your credit score if you have a $0 balance when you stop (contrary to some common myths about keeping a small credit card balance being beneficial).
