Limits go to $10k I believe. Someone shared theirs with me and they have between a $5-8k limit.

The last time an Apple product was widely mocked, it (the Airpods) went on to become insanely popular and a cultural icon.
Do enlighten me as what you think laughing at other people spending their money will accomplish, besides demonstrating your own ignorance and lack of foresight?
You’re comparing headphones to a credit card? They stripped the cord off of their existing ear buds.. this is an entirely different market they are dipping their toes into. Go ahead.. flash your apple card around, hope you’re one of thousand that gets below 14% APR.
The lesson is and always has been the same.
One bets against Apple to their own detriment.
Believe.
It wasn’t so long ago when people felt that Apple’s focus on privacy would put them at a disadvantage vs the incumbents Facebook and google. Today, it is Apple’s greatest strength.
With Apple products, the takeaway often ends up being related more to how Apple is setting the stage for the future. Certain announcements and features make much more sense (often in hindsight) when thinking about what Apple will likely unveil the following years.
Apple is currently opting to simply improve the current financial system rather than seek to replace it altogether. That said, there is little doubt that Apple is going to play a larger role in our financial affairs in the future, and it makes sense to slowly build up trust first, while at the same time rely on establishment players in order to reduce risk and help improve product adoption.
And this trust will pay dividends in the future should Apple decide to go into digital currencies or whatever the next big thing will be.
So the next time you see someone pay with an Apple Card, smile, because he / she is part of something bigger. I won’t be able to make use of this just yet since I don’t reside in the US, but it will be fun to see what Apple makes of this sector, as Apple does with any market they choose to enter.

Yes, but with interest in the 13%- 24% range. Don’t use this card to carry a balance.
That’s just one person’s limit. Yours will depend on your credit score, income and possibly other factors. Some customers will get denied, others might get $500, others $5,000 or more. No different than other credit cards.WTF a $1000.00 credit limit - thanks freaking funny
Note that a fair number of places in the US still swipe, thus skimming still happens. I don't think this is a story.
9% is really good. The Apple Card is pretty much the industry standard. I have one card that is 5.5% all of the time, and I would only use it in an emergency (with a balance).
No, but I would have expected a pic with a calliper measuring the thickness... XDWas the weighing necessary?
Apart from the already stated fact that the number will be available on the phone, I've experienced only twice in my life that the POS terminal was actually down... and that was fixed in no time. (BTW: Doing an offline CC transaction is a high risk to the merchant)
Then at least Apple could claim cutting edge design for once...
I still think they make you look duche-y and won’t get them. Same thing goes for people with large over-ear cans in airports.
I’l like to see a black pair or something more subtle that doesn’t scream so much duchebagginess.
And it builds on the system of you not losing your card at the same time as your pin, which is a very reasonable assumption. Also your signature is much much easier to get hold of.
As an American with swipe and sign you'll have a hell in Europe, as cashiers will have to see your ID and do other paperwork they are not used to.
You can also declare your card stolen and get transactions retroactively blocked.
I personally think contactless for lower value+chip&pin+Mobile payments is hard to trumph. Swipe and sign is just an insecure, cumbersome process.
No, but I' sure it'll have a recall that provides a fix for about 5 people, and screws everyone else who all ready paid to have their's fixed...
No one stays up at night wanting to know specs for a credit card. Get outta here lol!I don’t know why I laughed so hard on this..

No, this is exactly what many people wants to know..
If you’re not interested just walk by. No one forced you to comment on the topic.
[doublepost=1561178004][/doublepost]
Why are you so worried on the thing you don’t intend to use?
[doublepost=1561178327][/doublepost]
Who cares?
[doublepost=1561178539][/doublepost]
LMAO
(No doubt getting your information from Android forums?)
