Except blue cash's annual fee kinda drops that 6% to 4% or so. The streaming category helps a bit now though but I usually buy itunes gc's. Amex Gold is probably better (4x groceries) although amex is being kind of strict with gift card purchasing these days as well as eliminating the option of buying southwest gc's to meet the airline credit given.
Got a tip for us?

You forgot a few products/services.
2014: Apple Watch
2017: iMac Pro
2019: Mac Pro
2019: Apple TV+
Etc.
Wouldn’t it be covered under Mastcards fraud protection? Same as if your local bank debit card was compromised it falls to Visa or MasterCard?
So looking at the video, it seems that you will find out your limit and interest rate before you even accept the card, whereas normally, you get approved and then you get that information. So if its not worth it because of a low limit, you can decline it?
I am a developer and haven't received anything yet. Not sure if other developers received the invite or not, though depending on where their apps are focused.
In a previous thread someone said Transunion, but not sure.
No foreign transaction fees is definitely a nice benefit for travelers if you don't have them already. I always use my Capital One debit and credit cards when I'm abroad for this reason.
Perhaps? Maybe? But none of this stuff is mentioned. It's all about the no fees, cash daily, and security. I don't think it's bad for a no annual fee card though. I'm not in any rush to get it though as I simply don't shop at Apple enough (in fact i seldom buy directly from apple because it's almost always msrp) or use apple pay.

I'll be keeping the Barclays but it will just sit unused rather than close it out.
I keep thinking that maybe they just forgot to hit Send on my email, and that it's coming shortly.
It's about time that states start issuing digital IDs. It would save the state a ton of money and be harder to fake (police and bars could just use a QR code scanner to check authenticity).Can’t wait! Now I can put my drivers license andCard on the back of my wallet case and can leave the wallet behind
hoping they are sending these preview emails in waves
i signed up for updates back in june
The most recent version of iOS is required, as is an iPhone that can use Apple Pay.
Isn't that redundant, AFAIK all iPhones running the latest iOS can be used for Apple Pay.
Me as well. I was somehow hoping that it would get me in early. So far no luck.
unless you actually read the terms. Amex Blue - $95 annual fee, 6% only up to 6000, then 1%, 2.7% foreign transaction fee - meh! Amazon - 5% only at amazon, (2% restaurant, gas stations, drugstores), 1% other places - meh!
so all in all, there is no super-duper- 100% cash back and no fee card out there - too bad, that would be great
Also a developer, also nothing. Doesn't really make sense for them to invite just us for a preview, either. Pretty sure Apple Card should require no developer effort except for ones who may wish to support Apple Pay now.

iPhone 5s cannot.
