Is it permissible or forbidden to buy with bank cards that offer a return or discount?

If the card is not covered and its holder borrows with interest, then it is forbidden. However, if it is covered and one purchases from their balance, there is no harm in it. There is also no harm in benefiting from incentives. This also applies if it is not covered and no usurious interest results from its use.
