Discover is absolutely a different kind of credit card. IIRC, you can get cash back as purchase.

If you want to use other non-Discover card, it will be best to test it out before.

If Cash Advance, you will not only be charged for interest beginning the transaction time, you will have to pay the Cash Advance fee as well.
