It will be half the size of a normal credit card and require an adapter sold separately for $29.99.
And it doesn't have to make a whole lot of cash - just gets thrown into Apple Services pot - and will attract the entire Apple ecosystem to sign on.
Yeah, we both know 25% off Apple products ain't gonna happen , but discounts on lifetime battery replacements, where products were bought using the Apple Card, in addition to VIP access to the Genius Bar, all this obviously on top of some form of cash-back benefits, actually sounds like a workable and reasonable idea that might convince some potential interested parties, myself included, of the benefits of any such upcoming Apple-branded/Goldman Sachs card.25% off list prices of Apple products and free battery replacements for the life of the product when purchased with the card! Also, a special VIP access to Genius Bar services including guaranteed same-day appointments.
$95 annual fee.
Apple is Apple. They don’t need the category. They are the categoryAt this point, I don't know what type of company Apple is? Tech? Fashion? Credit card?
I would think that this would be a digital only credit card. Seems counter intuitive for Apple to push the ‘ditch the wallet’ mantra if they’re going to make a physical card.
I think forcing merchants would be easy if banks started doing “digital only accounts” for free, for example Bank of America can do an “Apple Pay only account” and since they have Apple Pay ATMs that could work. Then the stores don’t want to lose these customers so they would make sure Apple Pay worksI feel like there will be a physical card. The infrastructure simply still isn't there to only have digital cards.

When Steve Jobs put the tag line "Think Different".. boy! did he know Tim Cook will think of Credit Card business.
24.9, 9...I have had my Barclay for a long time. Iv'e got 9% .
Free for right now. Once all the equipment is in place they can go back to normal rates and benefit the cost savings by reduced fraud- which costs a ton of money they’re bleeding it.So I guess part of this generosity, on behalf of the banks, to not charge credit card interchange fees to merchants who accept contactless pay will be matched by Apple not charging the banks their fee for providing the Apple Pay convenience. Yeah, I can hardly wait to see that - banks giving up upwards of 2% interchange fees and Apple foregoing their .15% Apple Pay fee charged to the banks - right across America - it'll all be Free, Free, Free, Free ...
And if they can match the Citi Double Cash (2% cash back) reward, it would be killer.
My credit card works works wide oh and actually works in stores! Grocery stores don’t take bitcoin lol! What a fad that stupid crap is.i'll pass on this one, i don't need to be giving out my personal info just to make payments. i'll stick with bitcoin plus it works world wide and no personal info needed at all.
Goldman sachs are still crooks though. I pass.
