Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Background and Basis of Presentation | Background and Basis of Presentation Description of Business Discover Financial Services ("DFS" or the "Company") is a digital banking and payment services company. The Company is a bank holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 and a financial holding company under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act. Therefore, the Company is subject to oversight, regulation and examination by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Federal Reserve"). The Company provides digital banking products and services and payment services through its subsidiaries. The Company offers its customers credit card loans, personal loans, home loans and deposit products. The Company also operates the Discover Network, the PULSE network ("PULSE") and Diners Club International ("Diners Club"), collectively known as the Discover Global Network. The Discover Network processes transactions for Discover-branded credit and debit cards and provides payment transaction processing and settlement services. PULSE operates an electronic funds transfer network, providing financial institutions issuing debit cards on the PULSE network with access to automated teller machines ("ATMs") domestically and internationally, as well as merchant acceptance throughout the United States of America ("U.S.") for debit card transactions. Diners Club is a global payments network of licensees, which are generally financial institutions, that issue Diners Club branded credit and charge cards and/or provide card acceptance services. The Company manages its business activities in two segments, Digital Banking and Payment Services, based on the products and services provided. See Note 16: Segment Disclosures for a detailed description of each segment's operations and the allocation conventions used in business segment reporting. Pending Sale of The Private Student Loan Portfolio In November 2023, the Company announced its Board of Directors had authorized management to explore the sale of its private student loan portfolio. The Company stopped accepting new applications for private student loans February 1, 2024, and as of June 30, 2024, the Company's private student loan portfolio was classified as loans held-for-sale. On July 17, 2024, Discover Bank entered into a purchase agreement to sell its private student loan portfolio and transfer servicing of the portfolio to a third-party servicer upon the sale. As of June 30, 2024, the principal balance of the private student loan portfolio, excluding interest to be capitalized, was approximately $10.1 billion. The purchase price payable to Discover Bank in the transaction is at a premium to the principal and interest to be capitalized balances of the private student loan portfolio and, based on certain assumptions, proceeds are estimated to be up to approximately $10.8 billion over the course of 2024. The transaction is expected to be completed in multiple closings by the end of 2024, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of customary closing conditions. For more information, see Discover's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on July 17, 2024. Pending Merger with Capital One Financial Corporation On February 19, 2024, Discover and Capital One Financial Corporation ("Capital One") jointly announced that they entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the "Merger Agreement"), under which the companies will combine in an all-stock merger, which valued Discover at $35.3 billion based on the price of Capital One common stock on the last trading day before the public announcement of the merger. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, holders of Discover common stock will receive 1.0192 shares of Capital One common stock for each share of Discover common stock they own. Capital One shareholders will own approximately 60% of the combined company and Discover shareholders will own approximately 40% of the combined company. The Merger Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, covenants and closing conditions. The Board of Directors of the combined company will have fifteen directors, consisting of twelve Capital One Board members and three Discover Board members to be named at a later date. For more information, see Discover’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on February 22, 2024. Completion of the proposed merger remains subject to approval by the Federal Reserve Board and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and other customary closing conditions, including the approval of both companies’ shareholders. Basis of Presentation The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, the financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of results for the interim period. All such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. These estimates are based on information available as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company believes that the estimates used in the preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements are reasonable. Actual results could differ from these estimates. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's 2023 audited consolidated financial statements filed with the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements (Not Yet Adopted) In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures . This ASU enhances the transparency of income tax information through improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. Entities are required to disaggregate the rate reconciliation (including percentages and reported amounts) by certain specified categories with additional disaggregation by nature and/or jurisdiction for items over a designated threshold. Income taxes paid (net of refunds received) must be disaggregated by federal, state and foreign taxes and separately by individual jurisdiction in which that amount for a particular jurisdiction is equal to or greater than five percent of total income taxes paid (net of refunds received). This annual disclosure guidance is effective for the Company for the year ending December 31, 2025 and can be adopted on either a prospective or retrospective basis. The Company expects to adopt this standard on a prospective basis. While the ASU implements further income tax disclosure requirements, it does not change how an entity determines its income tax obligation, and it will have no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures . The ASU requires disclosure of additional segment level information, particularly regarding significant segment expenses. Entities must disclose significant expense categories and amounts that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker ("CODM") and included in the reported segment measure of profit or loss. Other segment items must also be reported, which are those items that make up the difference between segment revenues less significant segment expenses and reported segment profit or loss. Additionally, entities must disclose the identity of the CODM and how they use the reported measures of segment profit or loss for decision making and assessing segment performance. The guidance is effective for the Company for the year ending December 31, 2024, and interim periods thereafter and requires retrospective application. While the ASU implements further segment disclosure requirements, it does not change how an entity identifies its operating or reportable segments, and it will have no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. |

Investments, Debt and Equity Securities [Abstract] | |
Investments | Investments The Company's investment securities consist of the following (dollars in millions): June 30, December 31, U.S. Treasury (1) and U.S. GSE (2) securities $ 12,827 $ 12,937 Residential mortgage-backed securities - Agency (3) 681 718 Total investment securities $ 13,508 $ 13,655 (1) Includes $442 million and $320 million of U.S. Treasury securities pledged as swap collateral as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. (2) Consists of securities issued by the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB"). (3) Primarily consists of securities issued by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, or Ginnie Mae. The amortized cost, gross unrealized gains and losses and fair value of available-for-sale and held-to-maturity investment securities are as follows (dollars in millions): Amortized Gross Gross Fair Value At June 30, 2024 Available-for-Sale Investment Securities (1) U.S. Treasury and U.S. GSE securities $ 13,004 $ 6 $ (183) $ 12,827 Residential mortgage-backed securities - Agency 434 — (19) 415 Total available-for-sale investment securities $ 13,438 $ 6 $ (202) $ 13,242 Held-to-Maturity Investment Securities (2) Residential mortgage-backed securities - Agency (3) $ 266 $ — $ (24) $ 242 Total held-to-maturity investment securities $ 266 $ — $ (24) $ 242 At December 31, 2023 Available-for-Sale Investment Securities (1) U.S. Treasury and U.S. GSE securities $ 12,971 $ 52 $ (86) $ 12,937 Residential mortgage-backed securities - Agency 480 — (15) 465 Total available-for-sale investment securities $ 13,451 $ 52 $ (101) $ 13,402 Held-to-Maturity Investment Securities (2) Residential mortgage-backed securities - Agency (3) $ 253 $ — $ (19) $ 234 Total held-to-maturity investment securities $ 253 $ — $ (19) $ 234 (1) Available-for-sale investment securities are reported at fair value. (2) Held-to-maturity investment securities are reported at amortized cost. (3) Amounts represent residential mortgage-backed securities ("RMBS") that were classified as held-to-maturity as they were entered into as a part of the Company's community reinvestment initiatives. The Company primarily invests in U.S. Treasury obligations and securities issued by a U.S. government agency ("Agency") or government-sponsored enterprise ("U.S. GSE"), which have long histories with no credit losses and are explicitly or implicitly guaranteed by the U.S. federal government. Therefore, management has concluded that there is no expectation of non-payment on its investment securities and does not record an allowance for credit losses on these investments. In addition, the Company does not have the intent to sell any available-for-sale securities in an unrealized loss position and does not believe it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell any such security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. The following table provides information about available-for-sale investment securities with aggregate gross unrealized losses and the length of time that individual investment securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position (dollars in millions): Number of Securities in a Loss Position Less than 12 months More than 12 months Fair Unrealized Fair Unrealized At June 30, 2024 Available-for-Sale Investment Securities U.S. Treasury and U.S. GSE securities 199 $ 5,458 $ (58) $ 6,483 $ (125) Residential mortgage-backed securities - Agency 30 $ — $ — $ 415 $ (19) At December 31, 2023 Available-for-Sale Investment Securities U.S. Treasury and U.S. GSE securities 105 $ 3,513 $ (13) $ 3,978 $ (73) Residential mortgage-backed securities - Agency 31 $ — $ — $ 465 $ (15) There were no proceeds from sales or recognized gains or losses on available-for-sale securities during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023.

Other Investments As a part of the Company’s community reinvestment initiatives, the Company has made equity investments in certain limited partnerships and limited liability companies that finance the construction and rehabilitation of affordable rental housing and stimulate economic development in low- to moderate-income communities. These investments are recorded within other assets on the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of financial condition. The Company has elected to account for its qualifying investments in Low Income Housing Tax Credit and New Markets Tax Credit programs under the proportional amortization method beginning January 1, 2024 on a modified retrospective basis. As of June 30, 2024, all of the Company's tax credit investments qualified for this election. Prior to 2024, these investments were accounted for using the equity method. Under the proportional amortization method, the cost of the investment is amortized in proportion to the income tax credits and other income tax benefits received, the net effect of which is recognized as a component of income tax expense on the condensed consolidated statements of income and within cash flows provided by operating activities on the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. The Company earns a return primarily through tax credits allocated to the affordable housing projects and the community revitalization projects. The Company does not consolidate these investments as the Company does not have a controlling financial interest in the investee entities. The related commitments for future investments are recorded in accrued expenses and other liabilities within the consolidated statements of financial condition for delayed equity contributions that are unconditional and legally binding. Equity contributions that are contingent upon a future event are recognized when that contingent event becomes probable. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had outstanding investments in these entities of $463 million and $514 million, respectively, and related liabilities for delayed equity contributions of $173 million and $187 million, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized $16 million and $31 million of amortization, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 the Company recognized $18 million and $36 million of income tax credits and other income tax benefits, respectively. Non-income tax benefits comprised only immaterial cash distributions from these investments during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024. The Company holds non-controlling equity positions in several payment services entities and third-party venture capital funds, which invest in such entities. Most of the direct investments in such entities are not subject to equity method accounting because the Company does not have significant influence over the investee. The Company's investments in third-party venture capital funds represent limited partnership interests and are accounted for under the equity method. The common or preferred equity securities that the Company holds typically do not have readily determinable fair values. As a result, these investments are carried at cost minus impairment, if any. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the carrying value of these investments, which are recorded within other assets on the Company's condensed consolidated statements of financial condition, was $38 million and $35 million, respectively. |

Receivables [Abstract] | |
Financing Receivables [Text Block] | Loan Receivables The Company's loans held-for-investment comprise two loan portfolio segments: credit card loans and other loans. The Company's classes of receivables within the two portfolio segments are depicted in the following table (dollars in millions): June 30, December 31, Loans held-for-sale (1)(2) $ 10,145 $ — Loan portfolio Credit card loans (3)(4) 100,066 102,259 Other loans (1) Private student loans (2) — 10,352 Personal loans 10,321 9,852 Other loans 7,117 5,946 Total other loans 17,438 26,150 Total loan portfolio 117,504 128,409 Total loan receivables 127,649 128,409 Allowance for credit losses (8,481) (9,283) Net loan receivables $ 119,168 $ 119,126 (1) Accrued interest receivable on private student, personal and other loans, which is presented as part of other assets in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of financial condition, was $563 million, $71 million and $26 million, respectively, at June 30, 2024 and $522 million, $69 million and $21 million, respectively, at December 31, 2023. (2) At June 30, 2024, the private student loan portfolio was classified as held-for-sale and there were $6.3 billion of private student loans in repayment. At December 31, 2023, the private student loan portfolio was classified as held-for-investment and there were $6.3 billion of private student loans in repayment. (3) Amounts include carrying values of $12.2 billion and $14.8 billion underlying investors' interest in trust debt at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, and $16.8 billion and $15.6 billion in seller's interest at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. See Note 4: Credit Card and Private Student Loan Securitization Activities for additional information. (4) Unbilled accrued interest receivable on credit card loans, which is presented as part of other assets in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of financial condition, was $724 million and $753 million at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Loans Held-for-Sale When a decision to sell loans is made, the loans are reclassified as held-for-sale. As previously disclosed, in November 2023, the Company's Board of Directors authorized management to explore options for selling the private student loan portfolio. Based on the results of management's exploration of the marketplace, in the second quarter of 2024, the Board authorized management to pursue entry into a sale transaction. As of June 30, 2024, the Company's private student loans portfolio was transferred to the held-for-sale classification and comprised the entirety of the Company’s loans held-for-sale balance. The Company includes its loans held-for-sale in loan receivables and carries these assets at the lower of amortized cost or fair value. The estimated fair value of loans held-for-sale is based on the pricing terms defined in the purchase agreement that was executed on July 17, 2024. An allowance for credit losses is not maintained for loans held-for-sale. Interest income on loans held-for-sale continues to accrue and is recognized in income based on the contractual rate of interest. As with the Company’s loans held-for-investment, accrued interest on loans held-for-sale is recorded in other assets in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of financial condition. Accrued interest on private student loans as of June 30, 2024, was incorporated into the lower of amortized cost or fair value measurement of those loans. Credit Quality Indicators As part of credit risk management activities, on an ongoing basis, the Company reviews information related to the performance of a customer's account with the Company and information from credit bureaus, such as FICO or other credit scores, relating to the customer's broader credit performance. The Company actively monitors key credit quality indicators, including FICO scores and delinquency status, for its loan receivables. These indicators are important to understand the overall credit performance of the Company's customers and their ability to repay. FICO scores are generally obtained at the origination of the account and are refreshed monthly or quarterly thereafter to assist in predicting customer behavior. Historically, the Company has noted that accounts with FICO scores below 660 have larger delinquencies and credit losses than those with higher credit scores. Credit quality disclosures, including disclosures pertaining to loan modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty, do not apply to loans carried at the lower of amortized cost or fair value. Therefore, loans held-for-sale are excluded from these disclosures. The following table provides the distribution of the amortized cost basis (excluding accrued interest receivable presented in other assets) by the most recent FICO scores available for the Company's customers for credit card and personal loan receivables (dollars in millions): Credit Risk Profile by FICO Score June 30, 2024 December 31, 2023 660 and Above Less than 660 660 and Above Less than 660 $ % $ % $ % $ % Credit card loans $ 80,169 80 % $ 19,897 20 % $ 82,238 80 % $ 20,021 20 % Personal loans by origination year 2024 $ 2,763 99 % $ 14 1 % 2023 4,067 96 % 170 4 % $ 5,149 98 % $ 100 2 % 2022 1,924 92 % 177 8 % 2,604 93 % 187 7 % 2021 721 91 % 74 9 % 1,049 92 % 91 8 % 2020 227 92 % 21 8 % 355 92 % 29 8 % Prior 137 84 % 26 16 % 247 86 % 41 14 % Total personal loans $ 9,839 95 % $ 482 5 % $ 9,404 95 % $ 448 5 % Delinquencies are an indicator of credit quality at a point in time. A loan balance is considered delinquent when contractual payments on the loan become 30 days past due. The amortized cost basis (excluding accrued interest receivable presented in other assets) of delinquent loans in the Company's loan portfolio is shown below for credit card and personal loan receivables (dollars in millions): June 30, 2024 December 31, 2023 30-89 Days 90 or Total Past 30-89 Days 90 or Total Past Credit card loans $ 1,863 $ 1,834 $ 3,697 $ 2,038 $ 1,917 $ 3,955 Personal loans by origination year 2024 $ 5 $ 1 $ 6 2023 47 17 64 $ 26 $ 8 $ 34 2022 39 16 55 44 16 60 2021 15 6 21 20 8 28 2020 4 2 6 7 2 9 Prior 5 2 7 7 5 12 Total personal loans $ 115 $ 44 $ 159 $ 104 $ 39 $ 143 Allowance for Credit Losses The following tables provide changes in the Company's allowance for credit losses (dollars in millions): For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2024 Credit Card Loans Private Student Loans Personal Loans Other Loans Total Loans Balance at March 31, 2024 $ 7,541 $ 869 $ 756 $ 92 $ 9,258 Additions Provision for credit losses (1)(2) 1,423 (823) 138 7 745 Deductions Charge-offs (1,648) (53) (117) (2) (1,820) Recoveries 275 7 16 — 298 Net charge-offs (1,373) (46) (101) (2) (1,522) Balance at June 30, 2024 $ 7,591 $ — $ 793 $ 97 $ 8,481 For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2023 Credit Card Loans Private Student Loans Personal Loans Other Loans Total Loans Balance at March 31, 2023 $ 6,135 $ 872 $ 622 $ 62 $ 7,691 Additions Provision for credit losses (1) 1,232 9 50 6 1,297 Deductions Charge-offs (1,051) (38) (64) — (1,153) Recoveries 209 6 14 — 229 Net charge-offs (842) (32) (50) — (924) Balance at June 30, 2023 $ 6,525 $ 849 $ 622 $ 68 $ 8,064 For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 Credit Card Loans Private Student Loans Personal Loans Other Loans Total Loans Balance at December 31, 2023 $ 7,619 $ 858 $ 722 $ 84 $ 9,283 Additions Provision for credit losses (1)(2) 2,756 (770) 272 18 2,276 Deductions Charge-offs (3,297) (100) (230) (5) (3,632) Recoveries 513 12 29 — 554 Net charge-offs (2,784) (88) (201) (5) (3,078) Balance at June 30, 2024 $ 7,591 $ — $ 793 $ 97 $ 8,481 For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2023 Credit Card Loans Private Student Loans Personal Loans Other Loans Total Loans Balance at December 31, 2022 $ 5,883 $ 839 $ 595 $ 57 $ 7,374 Cumulative effect of ASU No. 2022-02 adoption (3) (66) — (2) — (68) Balance at January 1, 2023 5,817 839 593 57 7,306 Additions Provision for credit losses (1) 2,234 69 118 11 2,432 Deductions Charge-offs (1,930) (71) (118) — (2,119) Recoveries 404 12 29 — 445 Net charge-offs (1,526) (59) (89) — (1,674) Balance at June 30, 2023 $ 6,525 $ 849 $ 622 $ 68 $ 8,064 (1) Excludes a $6 million and $8 million adjustment of the liability for expected credit losses on unfunded commitments for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $40 million and $25 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, as the liability is recorded in accrued expenses and other liabilities in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of financial condition. (2) Includes the adjustment to eliminate the allowance for credit losses upon classifying the private student loan portfolio as held-for-sale. (3) Represents the adjustment to the allowance for credit losses as a result of the adoption of ASU No. 2022-02 on January 1, 2023, which eliminated the requirement to apply discounted cash flow measurements for certain troubled debt restructurings. The allowance for credit losses was approximately $8.5 billion at June 30, 2024, which reflects a $777 million release from March 31, 2024, and an $802 million release from December 31, 2023. The release in the allowance for credit losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 was driven by the reversal of the private student loans allowance due to the loans being classified as held-for-sale, partially offset by the impact of loan growth. The allowance estimation process begins with a loss forecast that uses certain macroeconomic variables and multiple macroeconomic scenarios among its inputs. In estimating the allowance at June 30, 2024, the Company used a macroeconomic forecast that projected the following amounts: (i) unemployment rate ending 2024 at 4.04% and, within the Company's reasonable and supportable period, peaking at 4.08% in the fourth quarter of 2025 and (ii) 2.53% growth rate in real gross domestic product in 2024. In estimating expected credit losses, the Company considered the uncertainties associated with borrower behavior and payment trends, as well as recent and expected macroeconomic conditions, including those relating to consumer price inflation and the fiscal and monetary policy responses to that inflation. Subsequent to the Federal Reserve raising its federal funds rate target range, real GDP growth and labor market conditions exceeded most economists’ expectations, while inflation moderated but remained above the target rate. Federal Reserve officials have suggested that the policy rate is likely at its peak for the current tightening cycle, however, the timing and magnitude of rate decreases will be dependent on trends in economic data, particularly inflation. Restrictive monetary policy typically precedes weaker consumer credit conditions caused by rising unemployment as economic growth slows. While credit performance in the Company's lending portfolios has evolved in line with its expectations, the Company assessed the prospects for various macroeconomic outcomes in setting its allowance for credit losses. The forecast period the Company deemed to be reasonable and supportable was 18 months for all periods presented. The 18 months reasonable and supportable forecast period was deemed appropriate given the current economic conditions. For all periods presented, the Company determined that a reversion period of 12 months was appropriate for the same reason. The Company applied a weighted reversion method to provide a more reasonable transition to historical losses for all loan products for all periods presented. The net charge-offs for credit card loans and personal loans increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, when compared to the same periods in 2023, primarily driven by portfolio seasoning. Net charge-offs of principal are recorded against the allowance for credit losses, as shown in the preceding table. Information regarding net charge-offs of interest and fee revenues on credit card and other loans is as follows (dollars in millions): (1) For the Three Months Ended June 30, For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 2023 2024 2023 Interest and fees accrued subsequently charged-off, net of recoveries (recorded as a reduction of interest income) $ 278 $ 156 $ 557 $ 284 Fees accrued subsequently charged-off, net of recoveries (recorded as a reduction to other income) $ 66 $ 46 $ 135 $ 87 (1) Amounts presented in this table include charge-offs related to private student loans through June 30, 2024, the date those loans were transferred to held-for-sale classification . Gross principal charge-offs of the Company's loan portfolio are presented in the table below, on a year-to-date basis, for credit card and personal loan receivables (dollars in millions): For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 2023 Credit card loans $ 3,297 $ 1,930 Personal loans by origination year 2024 $ 1 2023 72 $ 1 2022 92 41 2021 40 39 2020 14 17 Prior 11 20 Total personal loans $ 230 $ 118 Delinquent and Non-Accruing Loans The amortized cost basis (excluding accrued interest receivable presented in other assets) of delinquent and non-accruing loans in the Company's loan portfolio, which excludes loans held-for-sale, is shown below for each class of loan receivables (dollars in millions): (1) 30-89 Days 90 or Total Past 90 or Total Non-accruing (2) At June 30, 2024 Credit card loans $ 1,863 $ 1,834 $ 3,697 $ 1,795 $ 191 Other loans Personal loans 115 44 159 42 11 Other loans 36 25 61 4 70 Total other loans 151 69 220 46 81 Total loan portfolio $ 2,014 $ 1,903 $ 3,917 $ 1,841 $ 272 At December 31, 2023 Credit card loans $ 2,038 $ 1,917 $ 3,955 $ 1,881 $ 197 Other loans Personal loans 104 39 143 37 11 Other loans 39 19 58 3 53 Total other loans 143 58 201 40 64 Total loan portfolio $ 2,181 $ 1,975 $ 4,156 $ 1,921 $ 261 (1) The payment status of both modified and unmodified loans is included in this table. (2) The Company estimates that the gross interest income that would have been recorded under the original terms of non-accruing credit card loans was $9 million and $10 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $17 million and $18 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The Company does not separately track the amount of gross interest income that would have been recorded under the original terms of loans. Instead, the Company estimated this amount based on customers' current balances and most recent interest rates. Loan Modifications to Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty The Company has internal loan modification programs that provide relief to credit card and personal loan borrowers who are experiencing financial hardship. The internal loan modification programs include both temporary and permanent programs, which vary by product. External loan modification programs, through third party consumer credit counseling agencies, are also available for credit card and personal loans. Those programs feature interest rate reductions, payment delays, term extensions, or a combination thereof. For credit card customers, the Company offers both temporary and permanent hardship programs. The temporary hardship programs consist of an interest rate reduction lasting for a period no longer than 12 months. Charging privileges on these accounts are generally suspended while in the program. However, if the customer meets certain criteria, charging privileges may be reinstated following completion of the program. The permanent modification program involves closing the account, changing the structure of the loan to a fixed payment loan with a maturity no longer than 72 months and reducing the interest rate on the loan. The permanent modification program does not typically provide for the forgiveness of unpaid principal, but may allow for the reversal of certain unpaid interest or fee assessments. The Company also makes permanent loan modifications for customers who request financial assistance through external sources, such as a consumer credit counseling agency program. These loans typically receive a reduced interest rate, typically continue to be subject to the original minimum payment terms and do not normally include waiver of unpaid principal, interest or fees. For personal loan customers, the Company offers various payment programs, including temporary and permanent programs, in certain situations. The temporary programs normally consist of reducing the minimum payment for no longer than 12 months and, in certain circumstances, the interest rate on the loan is reduced. The permanent programs involve extending the loan term and, in certain circumstances, reducing the interest rate on the loan. The total term of the loan, including modification, may not exceed nine years. The Company also allows permanent loan modifications for customers who request financial assistance through external sources, similar to the credit card customers discussed above. Payments are modified based on the new terms agreed upon with the credit counseling agency. In addition to the programs described above, the Company will in certain cases accept partial payment in full satisfaction of the outstanding receivable. This is a form of principal forgiveness also known as a settlement. The difference between the loan balance and the amount received at settlement is recorded as a charge-off. The Company monitors borrower performance after using payment programs. The Company believes the programs are useful in assisting customers experiencing financial difficulties and allowing them to make timely payments. In addition to helping customers with their credit needs, these programs are designed to maximize collections and ultimately the Company’s profitability. The Company plans to continue to use payment programs to provide relief to customers experiencing financial difficulties. The following table provides the period-end amortized cost basis, by modification category, of loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty that entered a modification program during the period (dollars in millions). Some of the loans presented in the table below may no longer be enrolled in a program at period-end: For the Three Months Ended June 30, For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 2023 2024 2023 Credit card loans (1)(2) Interest rate reduction $ 894 $ 560 $ 1,738 $ 1,158 Total credit card loans (3) $ 894 $ 560 $ 1,738 $ 1,158 % of total class of financing receivables 0.89 % 0.60 % 1.74 % 1.23 % Personal loans (1) Payment delay (4) $ 5 $ 3 $ 8 $ 4 Term extension (5) 12 8 21 16 Interest rate reduction and payment delay (4) 26 16 50 29 Interest rate reduction and term extension (5) 12 8 25 14 Total personal loans $ 55 $ 35 $ 104 $ 63 % of total class of financing receivables 0.53 % 0.38 % 1.01 % 0.69 % (1) Accrued interest receivable (including unbilled accrued interest receivable for credit card loans) on modified loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty, which is presented as part of other assets in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of financial condition, was immaterial at June 30, 2024 and 2023. (2) Accounts that entered a credit card loan modification program include $168 million and $331 million that were converted from revolving line-of-credit arrangements to term loans during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively. Accounts that entered a credit card loan modification program include $113 million and $231 million that were converted from revolving line-of-credit arrangements to term loans during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. (3) For settlements, the amortized cost basis is zero at period-end and therefore there is no amount reported for principal forgiveness in the table above. See financial effects table below for principal forgiveness to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. (4) The Company defines a payment delay as a temporary reduction in payments below the original contractually required payment amounts (e.g., interest only payments). The Company's credit card loan modification programs do not result in an other than insignificant delay in payment. (5) The Company defines term extensions as only those modifications for which the maturity date is extended beyond the original contractual maturity date by virtue of a change in terms other than a payment delay as defined above. Modifications to credit card loans are not considered term extensions because credit card loans do not have a fixed repayment term. The following table provides information on the financial effects of loan modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty, by modification type, made during the period (dollars in millions): For the Three Months Ended June 30, For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 2023 2024 2023 Credit card loans Weighted-average interest rate reduction 14.42 % 13.80 % 14.42 % 13.58 % Principal forgiven $ 48 $ 46 $ 104 $ 46 Interest and fees forgiven (1) $ 46 $ 35 $ 102 $ 47 Personal loans Weighted-average interest rate reduction 13.57 % 12.01 % 13.39 % 11.80 % Weighted-average term extension (in months) 40 39 40 38 Payment delay duration (in months) (2) 6 to 12 6 to 12 6 to 12 6 to 12 (1) Represents the amount of interest and fees forgiven resulting from accounts entering into a credit card loan modification program and pre-charge off settlements. Interest and fees forgiven are reversed against the respective line items in the condensed consolidated statements of income. (2) For personal loan payment delays, the Company limits this assistance to a life of loan maximum of 12 months. Loan receivables that have been modified are subject to the same requirements for the accrual of expected credit loss over their expected remaining lives as for unmodified loans. The allowance for credit losses incorporates modeling of historical loss data and thereby captures the higher risk associated with modified loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty based on their account attributes. The following table presents the payment status and period-end amortized cost basis, by class of loan receivable, of loans that were modified to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty during the 12 months preceding each of the periods presented (dollars in millions): (1) Current 30-89 Days 90 or At June 30, 2024 Credit card loans $ 2,436 $ 239 $ 203 Personal loans 137 26 5 Total $ 2,573 $ 265 $ 208 At December 31, 2023 Credit card loans $ 1,882 $ 252 $ 196 Personal loans 109 20 4 Total $ 1,991 $ 272 $ 200 (1) This table includes any loan that entered a modification program during the preceding 12 months without regard to whether it remained in a modification program as of the reporting date. The following table presents the defaulted amount and period-end amortized cost basis, by modification category, of loans that defaulted during the period and were modified to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty during the 12 months preceding default (dollars in millions): For the Three Months Ended June 30, 2024 For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 Defaulted Amount (1) Period-end Amortized Cost Basis Defaulted Amount (1) Period-end Amortized Cost Basis Credit card loans Interest rate reduction $ 206 $ 157 $ 406 $ 255 Total credit card loans $ 206 $ 157 $ 406 $ 255 Personal loans Payment delay $ 1 $ 1 $ 2 $ 1 Term extension 2 1 4 2 Interest rate reduction and payment delay 8 3 15 4 Interest rate reduction and term extension 5 4 9 5 Total personal loans $ 16 $ 9 $ 30 $ 12 (1) For purposes of this disclosure, a loan is considered to be defaulted when it is 60 days or more delinquent at month end and has advanced two stages of delinquency subsequent to modification. Loans that entered a modification program in any stage of delinquency but did not experience a further payment default are included in the payment status table above but are not counted as defaulted for purposes of this disclosure. The period-end amortized cost basis of credit cards loans modified on or after January 1, 2023 to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty which subsequently defaulted was $73 million and $84 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively. The period-end amortized cost basis of personal loans modified on or after January 1, 2023 to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty which subsequently defaulted was immaterial for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023. |

Variable Interest Entities Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Credit Card and Private Student Loan Securitization Activities | Credit Card and Private Student Loan Securitization Activities The Company's securitizations are accounted for as secured borrowings and the related trusts are treated as consolidated subsidiaries of the Company. For a description of the Company's principles of consolidation with respect to VIEs, see Note 1: Background and Basis of Presentation to the consolidated financial statements in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. Credit Card Securitization Activities The Company accesses the term asset securitization market through Discover Card Master Trust I ("DCMT") and Discover Card Execution Note Trust ("DCENT"). Credit card loan receivables are transferred into DCMT and beneficial interests in DCMT are transferred into DCENT. DCENT issues debt securities to investors that are reported primarily in long-term borrowings. The DCENT debt structure consists of four classes of securities (DiscoverSeries Class A, B, C and D notes), with the most senior class generally receiving a triple-A rating. To issue senior, higher-rated classes of notes, it is necessary to obtain the appropriate amount of credit enhancement, generally through the issuance of junior, lower-rated or more highly subordinated classes of notes. Wholly-owned subsidiaries of Discover Bank hold the subordinated classes of notes. The Company is exposed to credit risk associated with trust receivables as of the balance sheet date through the retention of these subordinated interests. The estimate of expected credit losses on trust receivables is included in the allowance for credit losses estimate. The Company's retained interests in the trust's assets, consisting of investments in DCENT notes held by subsidiaries of Discover Bank, constitute intercompany positions that are eliminated in the preparation of the Company's condensed consolidated statements of financial condition. Upon transfer of credit card loan receivables to the trust, the receivables and certain cash flows derived from them become restricted for use in meeting obligations to the trust's creditors. Further, the transferred credit card loan receivables are owned by the trust and are not available to the Company's third-party creditors. The trusts have ownership of cash balances, the amounts of which are reported in restricted cash within the Company's condensed consolidated statements of financial condition. Except for the seller's interest in trust receivables, the Company's interests in trust assets are generally subordinate to the interests of third-party investors in trust debt and, as such, may not be realized by the Company if needed to absorb deficiencies in cash flows that are allocated to those investors. Apart from the restricted assets related to securitization activities, the investors and the securitization trusts have no recourse to the Company's other assets or the Company's general credit for a shortage in cash flows. The carrying values of these restricted assets, which are presented on the Company's condensed consolidated statements of financial condition as relating to securitization activities, are shown in the following table (dollars in millions): June 30, December 31, Restricted cash $ 26 $ 36 Investors' interests held by third-party investors 9,650 11,725 Investors' interests held by wholly-owned subsidiaries of Discover Bank 2,565 3,117 Seller's interest 16,794 15,598 Loan receivables (1) 29,009 30,440 Allowance for credit losses allocated to securitized loan receivables (1) (1,344) (1,347) Net loan receivables 27,665 29,093 Other assets 3 2 Carrying value of assets of consolidated variable interest entities $ 27,694 $ 29,131 (1) The Company maintains its allowance for credit losses at an amount equal to lifetime expected credit losses associated with all loan receivables, which includes all loan receivables in the trusts. Therefore, the credit risk associated with the transferred receivables is fully reflected on the Company's statements of financial condition in accordance with GAAP. The debt securities issued by the consolidated trusts are subject to credit, payment and interest rate risks on the transferred credit card loan receivables. To protect investors in the securities, there are certain features or triggering events that will cause an early amortization of the debt securities, including triggers related to the impact of the performance of the trust receivables on the availability and adequacy of cash flows to meet contractual requirements. As of June 30, 2024, no economic or other early amortization events have occurred. The Company continues to own and service the accounts that generate the loan receivables held by the trusts. Discover Bank receives servicing fees from the trusts based on a percentage of the monthly investor principal balance outstanding. Although the fee income to Discover Bank offsets the fee expense to the trusts and thus is eliminated in consolidation, failure to service the transferred loan receivables in accordance with contractual requirements could lead to a termination of the servicing rights and the loss of future servicing income, net of related expenses. Private Student Loan Securitization Activities The Company's private student loan trust receivables reported in loan receivables and the related debt issued by the trust reported in long-term borrowings were immaterial as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The amounts are included, together with amounts related to the Company's credit card securitizations, in the supplemental information about assets and liabilities of consolidated variable interest entities, which is presented with the Company's condensed consolidated statements of financial condition. |

The Company is subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and tax authorities in various state, local and foreign tax jurisdictions. The Company's federal income tax filings are open to examinations for the tax years ended December 31, 2020 and forward. The Company regularly assesses the likelihood of additional assessments or settlements in each of the taxing jurisdictions. At this time, the potential change in unrecognized tax benefits is expected to be immaterial over the next 12 months. The Company believes that its reserves are sufficient to cover any tax, penalties and interest that would result from such examinations. |

Capital Adequacy

Broker-Dealer, Net Capital Requirement, SEC Regulation [Abstract] | |
Capital Adequacy | Capital Adequacy DFS is subject to the capital adequacy guidelines of the Federal Reserve. Discover Bank, the Company's banking subsidiary, is subject to various regulatory capital requirements as administered by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"). Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can result in the initiation of certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could limit the Company's business activities and have a direct material effect on the financial condition and operating results of DFS and Discover Bank. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, DFS and Discover Bank must meet specific risk-based capital requirements and leverage ratios that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items, as calculated under regulatory guidelines. Capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors. DFS and Discover Bank are subject to regulatory and capital rules issued by the Federal Reserve and FDIC, respectively, under the Basel Committee's December 2010 framework ("Basel III rules"). Under the Basel III rules, DFS and Discover Bank are classified as "standardized approach" entities. Standardized approach entities are defined as U.S. banking organizations with consolidated total assets over $50 billion but not exceeding $250 billion and consolidated total on-balance sheet foreign exposure less than $10 billion. In accordance with the final rule on the impact of current expected credit losses ("CECL") on regulatory capital, the Company has elected to phase in the impact over three years beginning in 2022. Accordingly, the Company's Common Equity Tier 1 ("CET1") capital ratios are higher than they otherwise would have been. The Company's CET1 capital ratios will continue to be favorably impacted by this election over the phase-in period, which ends December 31, 2024. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, DFS and Discover Bank met all Basel III minimum capital ratio requirements to which they were subject. DFS and Discover Bank also met the requirements to be considered "well-capitalized" under Regulation Y and prompt corrective action rules, respectively. There have been no conditions or events that management believes have changed DFS' or Discover Bank's category. To be categorized as "well-capitalized", DFS and Discover Bank must maintain minimum capital ratios outlined in the table below. The following table shows the actual capital amounts and ratios of DFS and Discover Bank and comparisons of each to the regulatory minimum and "well-capitalized" requirements (dollars in millions): Actual Minimum Capital Capital Requirements Amount Ratio (1) Amount Ratio Amount (2) Ratio (2) June 30, 2024 Total capital (to risk-weighted assets) Discover Financial Services $ 18,867 14.3 % $ 10,582 ≥8.0% $ 13,228 ≥10.0% Discover Bank $ 18,091 13.9 % $ 10,435 ≥8.0% $ 13,044 ≥10.0% Tier 1 capital (to risk-weighted assets) Discover Financial Services $ 16,746 12.7 % $ 7,937 ≥6.0% $ 7,937 ≥6.0% Discover Bank $ 15,243 11.7 % $ 7,826 ≥6.0% $ 10,435 ≥8.0% Tier 1 capital (to average assets) Discover Financial Services $ 16,746 11.1 % $ 6,041 ≥4.0% N/A N/A Discover Bank $ 15,243 10.2 % $ 5,968 ≥4.0% $ 7,460 ≥5.0% Common Equity Tier 1 (to risk-weighted assets) Discover Financial Services $ 15,690 11.9 % $ 5,953 ≥4.5% N/A N/A Discover Bank $ 15,243 11.7 % $ 5,870 ≥4.5% $ 8,479 ≥6.5% December 31, 2023 Total capital (to risk-weighted assets) Discover Financial Services $ 17,986 13.7 % $ 10,471 ≥8.0% $ 13,088 ≥10.0% Discover Bank $ 16,856 13.0 % $ 10,352 ≥8.0% $ 12,939 ≥10.0% Tier 1 capital (to risk-weighted assets) Discover Financial Services $ 15,872 12.1 % $ 7,853 ≥6.0% $ 7,853 ≥6.0% Discover Bank $ 13,910 10.8 % $ 7,764 ≥6.0% $ 10,352 ≥8.0% Tier 1 capital (to average assets) Discover Financial Services $ 15,872 10.7 % $ 5,915 ≥4.0% N/A N/A Discover Bank $ 13,910 9.5 % $ 5,833 ≥4.0% $ 7,292 ≥5.0% Common Equity Tier 1 (to risk-weighted assets) Discover Financial Services $ 14,816 11.3 % $ 5,890 ≥4.5% N/A N/A Discover Bank $ 13,910 10.8 % $ 5,823 ≥4.5% $ 8,411 ≥6.5% (1) Capital ratios are calculated based on the Basel III standardized approach rules, subject to applicable transition provisions, including CECL transition provisions.

Commitments Contingencies and Guarantees [Abstract] | |
Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees | Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees In the normal course of business, the Company enters into a number of off-balance sheet commitments, transactions and obligations under guarantee arrangements that expose the Company to varying degrees of risk. The Company's commitments, contingencies and guarantee relationships are described below. Commitments Unused Credit Arrangements At June 30, 2024, the Company had unused credit arrangements for loans of approximately $232.8 billion. Such arrangements arise primarily from agreements with customers for unused lines of credit on certain credit cards and certain other loan products, provided there is no violation of conditions in the related agreements. These arrangements, substantially all of which the Company can terminate at any time and which do not necessarily represent future cash requirements, are periodically reviewed based on account usage, customer creditworthiness, loan qualification and the cost of capital. As the Company’s credit card loans are unconditionally cancellable, no liability for expected credit losses is required for unused lines of credit. For all other loans, the Company records a liability for expected credit losses for unfunded commitments, which is presented as part of accrued expenses and other liabilities in the condensed consolidated statements of financial condition. Contingencies See Note 13: Litigation and Regulatory Matters for a description of potential liability arising from pending litigation or regulatory proceedings involving the Company. Guarantees The Company has obligations under certain guarantee arrangements, including contracts, indemnification agreements and representations and warranties, which contingently require the Company to make payments to the guaranteed party based on changes in an underlying asset, liability or equity security of a guaranteed party, rate or index. Also included as guarantees are contracts that contingently require the Company to make payments to a guaranteed party based on another entity's failure to perform under an agreement. The Company's use of guarantees is disclosed below by type of guarantee. Securitizations Representations and Warranties As part of the Company's financing activities, the Company provides representations and warranties that certain assets pledged as collateral in secured borrowing arrangements conform to specified guidelines. Due diligence is performed by the Company, which is intended to ensure that asset guideline qualifications are met. If the assets pledged as collateral do not meet certain conforming guidelines, the Company may be required to replace, repurchase or sell such assets. In its credit card securitization activities, the Company would replace nonconforming receivables through the allocation of excess seller's interest or from additional transfers from the unrestricted pool of receivables. If the Company could not add enough receivables to satisfy the requirement, an early amortization (or repayment) of investors' interests would be triggered. In its student loan securitizations, the Company would generally repurchase the loans from the trust at the outstanding principal amount plus interest. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make would be equal to the current outstanding balances of third-party investor interests in credit card asset-backed securities and the principal amount of any private student loan secured borrowings, plus any unpaid interest for the corresponding secured borrowings. The Company has recorded substantially all of the maximum potential amount of future payments in long-term borrowings on the Company's condensed consolidated statements of financial condition. The Company has not recorded any incremental contingent liability associated with its secured borrowing representations and warranties. Management believes that the probability of having to replace, repurchase or sell assets pledged as collateral under secured borrowing arrangements, including an early amortization event, is low. Counterparty Settlement Guarantees Diners Club and DFS Services LLC (on behalf of PULSE) have various counterparty exposures, which are listed below: • Merchant Guarantee . Diners Club has entered into contractual relationships with certain international merchants, which generally include travel-related businesses, for the benefit of all Diners Club licensees. The licensees hold the primary liability to settle the transactions of their customers with these merchants. However, Diners Club retains a counterparty exposure if a licensee fails to meet its financial payment obligation to one of these merchants. • ATM Guarantee. PULSE entered into contractual relationships with certain international ATM acquirers in which DFS Services LLC retains counterparty exposure if an issuer fails to fulfill its settlement obligation. • Global Network Alliance Guarantee . Discover Network, Diners Club and PULSE have entered into contractual relationships with certain international payment networks in which DFS Services LLC retains the counterparty exposure if a network fails to fulfill its settlement obligation. The maximum potential amount of future payments related to such contingent obligations is dependent upon the transaction volume processed between the time a potential counterparty defaults on its settlement and the time at which the Company disables the settlement of any further transactions for the defaulting party. The Company has some contractual remedies to offset these counterparty settlement exposures (such as letters of credit or pledged deposits), however, there is no limitation on the maximum amount the Company may be liable to pay. The actual amount of the potential exposure cannot be quantified as the Company cannot determine whether particular counterparties will fail to meet their settlement obligations. In the event all licensees and/or issuers were to become unable to settle their transactions, the Company estimates its maximum potential counterparty exposures to these settlement guarantees would be approximately $110 million as of June 30, 2024. The Company believes that the estimated amounts of maximum potential future payments are not representative of the Company's actual potential loss exposure given Diners Club's and PULSE's insignificant historical losses from these counterparty exposures. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had not recorded any contingent liability in the condensed consolidated statements of financial condition for these counterparty exposures and management believes that the probability of any payments under these arrangements is low. Discover Network Merchant Chargeback Guarantees The Company operates the Discover Network, issues payment cards and permits third parties to issue payment cards. The Company is contingently liable for certain transactions processed on the Discover Network in the event of a dispute between the payment card customer and a merchant. The contingent liability arises if the disputed transaction involves a merchant or merchant acquirer with whom the Discover Network has a direct relationship. If a dispute is resolved in the customer's favor, the Discover Network will credit or refund the disputed amount to the Discover Network card issuer, who in turn credits its customer's account. The Discover Network will then charge back the disputed amount of the payment card transaction to the merchant or merchant acquirer, where permitted by the applicable agreement, to seek recovery of amounts already paid to the merchant for payment card transactions. If the Discover Network is unable to collect the amount subject to dispute from the merchant or merchant acquirer (e.g., in the event of merchant default or dissolution or after expiration of the time period for chargebacks in the applicable agreement), the Discover Network will bear the loss for the amount credited or refunded to the customer. In most instances, a loss by the Discover Network is unlikely to arise in connection with payments on card transactions because most products or services are delivered when purchased and credits are issued by merchants on returned items in a timely fashion, thus minimizing the likelihood of cardholder disputes with respect to amounts paid by the Discover Network. However, where the product or service is not scheduled to be provided to the customer until a later date following the purchase, the likelihood of a contingent payment obligation by the Discover Network increases. Losses related to merchant chargebacks were not material for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. The maximum potential amount of obligations of the Discover Network arising from such contingent obligations is estimated to be the portion of the total Discover Network transaction volume processed to date for which timely and valid disputes may be raised under applicable law and relevant issuer and customer agreements. There is no limitation on the maximum amount the Company may be liable to pay to issuers. However, the Company believes that such amount is not representative of the Company's actual potential loss exposure based on the Company's historical experience. The actual amount of the potential exposure cannot be quantified as the Company cannot determine whether the current or cumulative transaction volumes may include or result in disputed transactions. The following table summarizes certain information regarding merchant chargeback guarantees (dollars in millions): For the Three Months Ended June 30, For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 2023 2024 2023 Aggregate sales transaction volume (1) $ 61,886 $ 65,850 $ 123,218 $ 126,683 (1) Represents transactions processed on the Discover Network for which a potential liability exists that, in aggregate, can differ from credit card sales volume. The Company did not record any contingent liability in the condensed consolidated financial statements for merchant chargeback guarantees as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The Company mitigates the risk of potential loss exposure by withholding settlement from merchants, obtaining third-party guarantees, or obtaining escrow deposits or letters of credit from certain merchant acquirers or merchants that are considered a higher risk due to various factors such as time delays in the delivery of products or services. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had escrow deposits and settlement withholdings of $9 million and $10 million, respectively, which are recorded in interest-bearing deposit accounts and accrued expenses and other liabilities on the Company's condensed consolidated statements of financial condition. |

Loss Contingency [Abstract] | |
Litigation and Regulatory Matters | Litigation and Regulatory Matters In the normal course of business, from time to time, the Company has been named as a defendant in various legal actions, including arbitrations, class actions and other litigation, arising in connection with its activities. Certain of the actual or threatened legal actions include claims for substantial compensatory and/or punitive damages or claims for indeterminate amounts of damages. The litigation process is not predictable and can lead to unexpected results. The Company contests liability and/or the amount of damages as appropriate in each pending matter. The Company has historically offered its customers an arbitration clause in its customer agreements. The arbitration clause allows the Company and its customers to quickly and economically resolve disputes. Additionally, the arbitration clause has in some instances limited the costs of, and the Company's exposure to, litigation. Future legal and regulatory challenges and prohibitions may cause the Company to discontinue its offering and use of such clauses. From time to time, the Company is involved in legal actions challenging its arbitration clause. Bills may be periodically introduced in Congress to directly or indirectly prohibit the use of pre-dispute arbitration clauses. The Company is also involved, from time to time, in other reviews, investigations and proceedings (both formal and informal) by governmental agencies regarding the Company's business including, among other matters, regulatory, accounting, tax and other operational matters. The investigations and proceedings may result in significant adverse judgments, settlements, fines, penalties, injunctions, decreases in regulatory ratings, customer restitution or other relief. These outcomes could materially impact the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements, increase its cost of operations, or limit the Company's ability to execute its business strategies and engage in certain business activities. Certain subsidiaries of the Company are subject to consent orders with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ("CFPB") and FDIC, as described below. Pursuant to powers granted under federal banking laws, regulatory agencies have broad and sweeping discretion and may assess civil money penalties, require changes to certain business practices or require customer restitution at any time. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, the Company establishes a liability for legal and regulatory matters when those matters create loss contingencies that are both probable and estimable. Except as discussed below regarding the card product misclassification matter, litigation and regulatory settlement-related expenses were immaterial for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. There may be an exposure to loss in excess of any amounts accrued. The Company believes the estimate of the aggregate range of reasonably possible losses (meaning the likelihood of losses is more than remote but less than likely), in excess of the amounts that the Company has accrued for legal and regulatory proceedings, is up to $140 million as of June 30, 2024. This estimated range of reasonably possible losses is based on currently available information for those proceedings in which the Company is involved and considers the Company's best estimate of such losses for those matters for which an estimate can be made. It does not represent the Company's maximum potential loss exposure. Various aspects of the legal and regulatory proceedings underlying the estimated range will change from time to time and actual results may vary significantly from the estimate. The Company's estimated range noted above involves significant judgment, given the varying stages of the proceedings, the existence of numerous yet to be resolved issues, the breadth of the claims (often spanning multiple years and, in some cases, a wide range of business activities), unspecified damages and/or the novelty of the legal issues presented. The outcome of pending matters could adversely affect the Company's reputation and be material to the Company's condensed consolidated financial condition, operating results and cash flows for a particular future period, depending on, among other things, the level of the Company's income for such period. In July 2015, the Company announced that its subsidiaries, Discover Bank, The Student Loan Corporation and Discover Products Inc. (the "Discover Subsidiaries"), agreed to a consent order with the CFPB with respect to certain private student loan servicing practices (the "2015 Order"). The 2015 Order expired in July 2020. In December 2020, the Discover Subsidiaries agreed to a consent order (the "2020 Order") with the CFPB resolving the agency’s investigation into Discover Bank’s compliance with the 2015 Order. In connection with the 2020 Order, Discover is required to implement a redress and compliance plan and must pay at least $10 million in consumer redress to consumers who may have been harmed and has paid a $25 million civil money penalty to the CFPB. On September 25, 2023, following the consent of the Board of Directors of Discover Bank, the FDIC issued a consent order (the "2023 Order") to Discover Bank. The 2023 Order addresses shortcomings in Discover Bank’s compliance management system for consumer protection laws and related matters. It does not contain any monetary penalties or fines. As part of the 2023 Order, Discover Bank agreed to improve its consumer compliance management system and enhance related corporate governance and enterprise risk management practices, and increase the level of Board oversight of such matters. Discover Bank has been taking significant steps to strengthen the organization’s compliance management system and address the other issues identified in the 2023 Order. In addition, Discover added two new independent directors with significant banking experience to the Boards of Discover and Discover Bank in the third quarter of 2023. Management and the Board are committed to meeting all the requirements of the 2023 Order. Discover Bank is working diligently to complete items required by the 2023 Order. This includes having retained third party consultants to conduct independent reviews and the submission of action plans to the FDIC by the required deadlines for review and feedback. The actions completed to date, taken together with actions previously undertaken to improve and enhance its compliance management system and enhance related corporate governance, address multiple consent order objectives, however, many provisions require longer term implementation. Depending on regulatory feedback, the timing of approvals and sustainability periods, necessary work is not likely to be completed until at least 2025. On March 8, 2016, a class-action lawsuit was filed against the Company, other credit card networks, other issuing banks and EMVCo in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California (B&R Supermarket, Inc., d/b/a Milam's Market, et al. v. Visa, Inc., et al.) alleging a conspiracy by defendants to shift fraud liability to merchants with the migration to the EMV security standard and chip technology. The plaintiffs assert joint and several liability among the defendants and seek unspecified damages, including treble damages, attorneys' fees, costs and injunctive relief. The Company filed its motion to compel arbitration, motion for summary judgment, and Daubert challenges on November 30, 2022, and awaits rulings. The Company is not in a position at this time to assess the likely outcome or its exposure, if any, with respect to this matter. However, the Company will seek to defend itself vigorously against all claims asserted by the plaintiffs. Card Product Misclassification The Company recorded a liability of $365 million as of June 30, 2023, within accrued expenses and other liabilities, to provide refunds to merchants, merchant acquirers and other intermediaries as a result of the card product misclassification. Management completed the reclassification of card products in November 2023. As of December 31, 2023, the balance of the liability was $375 million, reflecting an additional $11 million for the estimated effect of the prior price tiering on discount and interchange assessments recorded in each of the third and fourth quarters of 2023 and $12 million of settlement disbursements made through that date. Based on its experience through the first quarter of 2024 with remediation efforts, ongoing discussions with its regulators, its Board of Directors and other stakeholders, the pending merger with Capital One approved by the Board of Directors during the first quarter, and a desire to advance resolution of the matter more quickly to mitigate further risk, the Company determined it was appropriate to increase its estimate of total remediation. As a result, the Company increased its liability to approximately $1.2 billion through a charge to other expense for the three months ended March 31, 2024, to reflect the total amount the Company then believed was probable to be disbursed in relation to the card product misclassification. As reported in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed on July 3, 2024, on July 1, 2024, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a settlement agreement to resolve putative class actions filed on behalf of merchants allegedly affected by the card product misclassification. The settlement agreement, which is subject to court approval, would resolve claims by parties affected by the card product misclassification (merchants, merchant acquirers and other intermediaries). The Company expects all payments under the settlement agreement to be covered by the $1.2 billion liability. Substantially all of the liability as of June 30, 2024, represents amounts payable to or on behalf of impacted merchants, merchant acquirers and other intermediaries in settlement of the card product misclassification matter, with $26 million of that balance representing provision for legal fees and expenses payable to plaintiffs' counsel. The liability does not include any potential fines or penalties, or the cost of administering the distribution of funds to affected parties. The following table summarizes the change in the Company's counterparty restitution liability pertaining to the card product misclassification (dollars in millions): For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2024 2023 Balance as of beginning of period $ 375 $ — Provision for expected payments 810 365 Disbursements (21) — Balance as of end of period $ 1,164 $ 365 The Company remains in discussions with its various regulators regarding the card product misclassification. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized a separate charge of approximately $200 million representing the Company's current estimate of potential penalties to be imposed by its various regulators in relation to this matter. Actual penalties imposed are subject to further discussion with the Company's various regulators and may be more or less than such amount. In addition, the Company and its subsidiaries have been named as defendants in various lawsuits, including a putative class action on behalf of shareholders and a shareholder derivative action. The Company is also cooperating with a Securities and Exchange Commission investigation into this matter. The Company believes that additional losses are probable as a result of these actions and such losses could be material but it is not able to make a reasonable estimate of the amount or range of such losses as of June 30, 2024. |
Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement , provides a three-level hierarchy for classifying the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value of financial instruments based on whether the inputs are observable or unobservable. It also requires certain disclosures about those measurements. The three-level valuation hierarchy is as follows: • Level 1 : Fair values determined by Level 1 inputs are defined as those that utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. • Level 2 : Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs are those that utilize inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active or inactive markets, quoted prices for the identical assets in an inactive market and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals. The Company evaluates factors such as the frequency of transactions, the size of the bid-ask spread and the significance of adjustments made when considering transactions involving similar assets or liabilities to assess the relevance of those observed prices. If relevant and observable prices are available, the fair values of the related assets or liabilities would be classified as Level 2. • Level 3 : Fair values determined by Level 3 inputs are those based on unobservable inputs and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability being valued. In instances where the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy in which the measurements are classified is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Accordingly, the Company may utilize both observable and unobservable inputs in determining the fair values of financial instruments classified within the Level 3 category. The Company evaluates the classification of each fair value measurement within the hierarchy at least quarterly. The Company's assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and involves consideration of factors specific to the asset or liability. Furthermore, certain techniques used to measure fair value involve some degree of judgment and, as a result, are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company would realize in a current market exchange. Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows (dollars in millions): Quoted Price Significant Significant Total Balance at June 30, 2024 Assets Fair value - OCI U.S. Treasury and U.S. GSE securities $ 12,820 $ 7 $ — $ 12,827 Residential mortgage-backed securities - Agency — 415 — 415 Available-for-sale investment securities $ 12,820 $ 422 $ — $ 13,242 Derivative financial instruments - cash flow hedges (1) $ — $ 2 $ — $ 2 Fair value - Net income Derivative financial instruments - fair value hedges (1) $ — $ 2 $ — $ 2 Liabilities Fair value - OCI Derivative financial instruments - cash flow hedges (1) $ — $ 6 $ — $ 6 Fair value - Net income Derivative financial instruments - fair value hedges (1) $ — $ 5 $ — $ 5 Balance at December 31, 2023 Assets Fair value - OCI U.S. Treasury and U.S. GSE securities $ 12,928 $ 9 $ — $ 12,937 Residential mortgage-backed securities - Agency — 465 — 465 Available-for-sale investment securities $ 12,928 $ 474 $ — $ 13,402 Derivative financial instruments - cash flow hedges (1) $ — $ 2 $ — $ 2 Fair value - Net income Marketable equity securities $ 1 $ — $ — $ 1 Derivative financial instruments - fair value hedges (1) $ — $ 2 $ — $ 2 . (1) Derivative instrument carrying values in an asset or liability position are presented as part of other assets or accrued expenses and other liabilities, respectively, in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of financial condition. Available-for-Sale Investment Securities Investment securities classified as available-for-sale consist of U.S. Treasury and U.S. GSE securities and RMBS. The fair value estimates of investment securities classified as Level 1, consisting of U.S. Treasury securities, are determined based on quoted market prices for the same securities. The fair value estimates of U.S. GSE securities and RMBS are classified as Level 2 and are valued by maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs, including quoted prices for similar securities, benchmark yield curves and market-corroborated inputs. The Company validates the fair value estimates provided by pricing services primarily by comparing to valuations obtained through other pricing sources. The Company evaluates pricing variances among different pricing sources to ensure that the valuations utilized are reasonable. The Company also corroborates the reasonableness of the fair value estimates with analysis of trends of significant inputs, such as market interest rate curves. The Company further performs due diligence in understanding the procedures and techniques performed by the pricing services to derive fair value estimates. At June 30, 2024, amounts reported in RMBS reflect U.S. government agency and U.S. GSE obligations issued by Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac with an aggregate par value of $434 million, a weighted-average coupon of 4.11% and a weighted-average remaining maturity of four years. Derivative Financial Instruments The Company's derivative financial instruments consist of interest rate swaps and foreign exchange forward contracts. These instruments are classified as Level 2 as their fair values are estimated using proprietary pricing models, containing certain assumptions based on readily observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves, option volatility and foreign currency forward and spot rates. In determining fair values, the pricing models use widely accepted valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity and the observable market-based inputs. The fair values of the interest rate swaps are determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash receipts (or payments) and the discounted expected variable cash payments (or receipts). The variable cash payments (or receipts) are based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from the observable market interest rate curves. The Company considers collateral and master netting agreements that mitigate credit exposure to counterparties in determining the counterparty credit risk valuation adjustment. The fair values of the foreign exchange forward contracts are valued by comparing the contracted forward exchange rate pertaining to the specific contract maturities to the current market exchange rate. The Company validates the fair value estimates of interest rate swaps primarily through comparison to the fair value estimates computed by the counterparties to each of the derivative transactions. The Company evaluates pricing variances among different pricing sources to ensure that the valuations utilized are reasonable. The Company also corroborates the reasonableness of the fair value estimates with analysis of trends of significant inputs, such as market interest rate curves. The Company performs due diligence in understanding the impact of any changes to the valuation techniques performed by proprietary pricing models before implementation, working closely with the third-party valuation service and reviewing the service's control objectives at least annually. The Company corroborates the fair value of foreign exchange forward contracts through independent calculation of the fair value estimates. Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis The Company also has assets that, under certain conditions, are subject to measurement at fair value on a non-recurring basis. These assets include those associated with acquired businesses, including goodwill. For these assets, measurement at fair value in periods subsequent to the initial recognition of the assets may be applicable whenever one is tested for impairment.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Derivatives and Hedging Activities | Derivatives and Hedging Activities The Company uses derivatives to manage its exposure to various financial risks. The Company does not enter into derivatives for trading or speculative purposes. Certain derivatives used to manage the Company's exposure to foreign currency are not designated as hedges and do not qualify for hedge accounting. Derivatives may give rise to counterparty credit risk, which generally is mitigated through collateral arrangements as described under the sub-heading "— Collateral Requirements and Credit-Risk Related Contingency Features." The Company enters into derivative transactions with established dealers that meet minimum credit criteria established by the Company. All counterparties must be pre-approved before engaging in any transaction with the Company. The Company regularly monitors counterparties to ensure compliance with the Company's risk policies and limits. In determining the counterparty credit risk valuation adjustment for the fair values of derivatives, if any, the Company considers collateral and legally enforceable master netting agreements that mitigate credit exposure to related counterparties. All derivatives are recorded in other assets at their gross positive fair values and in accrued expenses and other liabilities at their gross negative fair values. See Note 14: Fair Value Measurements for a description of the valuation methodologies used for derivatives. Cash collateral amounts associated with derivative positions that are cleared through an exchange are legally characterized as settlement of the derivative positions. Such collateral amounts are reflected as offsets to the associated derivatives balances recorded in other assets or in accrued expenses and other liabilities. Other cash collateral posted and held balances are recorded in other assets and deposits, respectively, in the condensed consolidated statements of financial condition. Collateral amounts recorded in the condensed consolidated statements of financial condition are based on the net collateral posted or held position for each applicable legal entity's master netting arrangement with each counterparty. Derivatives Designated as Hedges Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows arising from changes in interest rates, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset, liability, or firm commitment attributable to a particular risk, such as interest rate risk, are considered fair value hedges. Cash Flow Hedges The Company uses interest rate swaps to manage its exposure to variability in cash flows related to changes in interest rates on interest-earning assets and funding instruments. These interest rate swaps qualify for hedge accounting in accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging ("ASC 815"). At June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company's outstanding cash flow hedges primarily relate to interest receipts from credit card receivables and had an initial maximum period of five years. The change in the fair value of derivatives designated as cash flow hedges is recorded in OCI and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted cash flows affect earnings. Amounts reported in AOCI related to derivatives at June 30, 2024, will be reclassified to interest income and interest expense as interest receipts and payments are accrued on the Company's then outstanding credit card receivables and certain floating-rate debt, respectively. During the next 12 months, the Company estimates it will reclassify $109 million into pretax earnings related to its cash flow hedges. Fair Value Hedges The Company is exposed to changes in the fair value of its fixed-rate debt obligations due to changes in interest rates. The Company uses interest rate swaps to manage its exposure to changes in the fair value of certain fixed-rate long-term borrowings, including securitized debt and bank notes, and deposits attributable to changes in the respective benchmark rates. These interest rate swaps qualify as fair value hedges in accordance with ASC 815. Changes in the fair values of both (i) the derivatives and (ii) the hedged long-term borrowings and deposits attributable to the interest-rate risk being hedged are recorded in interest expense and generally provide substantial offset to one another. Derivatives Not Designated as Hedges Foreign Exchange Forward Contracts The Company has foreign exchange forward contracts that are economic hedges and are not designated as accounting hedges. The Company enters into foreign exchange forward contracts to manage foreign currency risk. Changes in the fair value of these contracts are recorded in other income on the condensed consolidated statements of income. Derivatives Cleared Through an Exchange Cash variation margin payments on derivatives cleared through an exchange are legally considered settlement payments and are accounted for with corresponding derivative positions as one unit of account and not presented separately as collateral. With settlement payments on derivative positions cleared through this exchange reflected as offsets to the associated derivative asset and liability balances, the fair values of derivative instruments and collateral balances shown are generally reduced. Derivatives Activity The following table summarizes the fair value (including accrued interest) and outstanding notional amounts of derivative instruments and related collateral balances (dollars in millions): June 30, 2024 December 31, 2023 Notional Number of Outstanding Derivative Contracts Derivative Assets Derivative Liabilities Notional Derivative Assets Derivative Liabilities Derivatives designated as hedges Interest rate swaps—cash flow hedge $ 14,750 21 $ 2 $ 6 $ 10,650 $ 2 $ — Interest rate swaps—fair value hedge $ 14,116 18 2 5 $ 8,650 2 — Derivatives not designated as hedges Foreign exchange forward contracts (1) $ 32 6 — — $ 29 — — Total gross derivative assets/liabilities (2) 4 11 4 — Less: collateral held/posted (3) — (11) — — Total net derivative assets/liabilities $ 4 $ — $ 4 $ — (1) The foreign exchange forward contracts have notional amounts of EUR 6 million, GBP 6 million, SGD 1 million and INR 1.5 billion as of June 30, 2024, and notional amounts of EUR 6 million, GBP 6 million, SGD 1 million, INR 1.1 billion and AUD 2 million as of December 31, 2023. (2) In addition to the derivatives disclosed in the table, the Company enters into forward contracts to purchase when-issued mortgage-backed securities and tax exempt single family mortgage revenue bonds as part of its community reinvestment initiatives. At June 30, 2024, the Company had one outstanding contract with a total notional amount of $13 million and an immaterial fair value. At December 31, 2023, the Company had one outstanding contract with a total notional amount of $35 million and an immaterial fair value.

Collateral Requirements and Credit-Risk Related Contingency Features The Company has master netting arrangements and minimum collateral posting thresholds with its counterparties for its fair value and cash flow hedge interest rate swaps and foreign exchange forward contracts. The Company has not sought a legal opinion in relation to the enforceability of its master netting arrangements and, as such, does not report any of these positions on a net basis. Collateral is required by either the Company or its subsidiaries or the counterparty depending on the net fair value position of the derivatives held with that counterparty. These collateral receivable or payable amounts are generally not offset against the fair value of these derivatives but are recorded separately in other assets or deposits. Most of the Company's cash collateral amounts relate to positions cleared through an exchange and are reflected as offsets to the associated derivatives balances recorded in other assets and accrued expenses and other liabilities. The Company also has agreements with certain of its derivative counterparties that contain a provision under which the Company could be declared in default on any of its derivative obligations if the Company defaults on any of its indebtedness, including default where the lender has not accelerated repayment of the indebtedness. |
