Apple Card

A no-fee card for iPhone users that pays the most when you use Apple Pay.

Para quién es

This card suits you if you have an iPhone and pay with Apple Pay often. You earn 3% at Apple and select merchants when you use Apple Pay, 2% on other Apple Pay purchases and 1% when you use the physical card. There's no annual fee, and the card is managed from the Wallet app, which shows your spending clearly.

Quién debería evitarla

Skip it if you don't have an iPhone or rarely use Apple Pay, since most of your purchases would earn only 1%. Skip it if you want a high flat rate everywhere; a 2% card beats the physical Apple Card. And if you carry a balance, the regular APR still applies.

Cómo sacarle el máximo

Add the card to Apple Pay and use your phone at checkout wherever you can to earn at least 2%. Buy Apple products and services with it for 3%. Use a flat 2% card where Apple Pay isn't accepted. Pay in full each month; the Wallet app makes it easy to see what's due. It has no foreign transaction fees, so it works on trips too.
