2026.5 Update: There is now a sign-up bonus being promoted as “earn back the cost of AirPods 3,” but the actual terms are extremely cumbersome: you need to purchase AirPods 3 by June 15, then starting from July 1, make 10 purchases each month to earn $25 in Bonus Daily Cash. This lasts for 10 months, for a total of $250. The terms are so convoluted that they are practically unheard of in the US credit card world.
2024.10 Update: The $100 offer is expired. The $75 offer is still alive.
2024.8 Update: There’s $100 offer now.

Disadvantages
- Sign-up bonus is low.
Summary
This is an attempt to challenge the current credit card market by Apple. It has deep integration with iOS devices. Compared to the earning structure of this card versus other cards, it is OK but not great. You can get 2% cashback in most places via Apple Pay. For the people who want to maximize credit card rewards, this card is not for you. But the card looks fancy, and maybe the Apple logo is a sufficient reason for some people to have it.
