Here come the complaints from current customers for not being included.
Every credit card does this. It's how they get people to sign up. Amex Platinum gives you 100,000 points for signup. Many give you a pile of cash back after hitting a certain spend. This is common of most every credit card out there.

ti`s the season to spend money.........and then spend money you don't have........fa la la la.....oh my bank account
I don't understand the Apple Card. I purchased a refurb iPad using the card. Found a better deal at Amazon so I called Apple and received a cancellation authorization. As soon as the refurb arrived I sent it back to Apple. Now I have a $14.95 Apple Daily Cash charge I can't get rid of. Called ApplePay and did not receive an understandable answer. The whole thing should zero out, correct? Am I missing something?

Did you transfer the $14.95 out of your Daily Cash card into a checking or some other account? If so, it should zero out over time as you spend enough to build up $14.95 worth of Apple Cash again.I don't understand the Apple Card. I purchased a refurb iPad using the card. Found a better deal at Amazon so I called Apple and received a cancellation authorization. As soon as the refurb arrived I sent it back to Apple.

The $14.95 credit should have posted to your Apple Cash originally. The offset should be this $14.95 charge to your Apple Card. The offset does not post to Apple Cash.I don't understand the Apple Card. I purchased a refurb iPad using the card.

You earned $14.95 daily cash with this purchase but returned it, so instead of taking back the cash, they charge your Apple Card. If you check your Daily Cash history you will see the $14.95.I don't understand the Apple Card. I purchased a refurb iPad using the card.

Wish Apple offered higher cash back at more locations - the 2% cash back on apple pay is great but you can get 5% off Apple products on Amazon with the prime card any time.
I used my Apple Card near its limit over the summer and my credit score got dinged for it, even though I paid it off on time. I am giving all my credit cards a break. I just use my Apple Card to pay monthly bill to keep it active. Most of my purchases are now on debit. Thankfully my credit has been restored to excellent.

When you return an item, the cash received as cash back stays on your Cash Account. On your Apple Card transactions you should see a credit for the item you returned and a change for the amount of the cash back you originally received for the item you purchased (and now you've returned).I don't understand the Apple Card. I purchased a refurb iPad using the card. Found a better deal at Amazon so I called Apple and received a cancellation authorization. As soon as the refurb arrived I sent it back to Apple.

I got my Apple Card last year and 2 days later they started the 5% cash back promotion. I tried to see if I could get it also but they told me I couldn't because I was 2 days too soon.

I want Apple Card rolled out in the UK. That way I can be included. And then I can moan the next year about not being included in the promotional events. It's not fair.....I'm missing out on the missing out....

But you can't get the no-interest purchase with the Amazon card like you can with the Apple Card purchase from Apple. So there are different benefits depending on which way you want to go.Wish Apple offered higher cash back at more locations - the 2% cash back on apple pay is great but you can get 5% off Apple products on Amazon with the prime card any time.
Amazon gives you that 5% because they know you'll spend way more by doing so. Look at Prime. The average Prime member spends $1400 a year with Amazon, compared to just $600 for non-members. Clearly it's to Amazon's benefit to get people to sign up for Prime.
The same is true with the Target Card. They give people 5% off purchases because they spend significantly more and it allows them to track all their purchases (which allows them to further target people with offers that cause them to spend more).

That does not make it right, nor does it inspire customer loyalty in what is a very competitive business.Here come the complaints from current customers for not being included.

This sounds good until you realize Amazon almost always has Apple products on sale and then does 5% back (Amazon credit, admittedly) with their credit card…would be nice if Apple tried to be a little more competitive with their card.

It's how EVERY credit card works. It's called a 'Signup Bonus'. It's an industry standard. 😂 It's no different than countless retailers that have special offers for first-time customers.That does not make it right, nor does it inspire customer loyalty in what is a very competitive business.
The Apple Card has never been a very good card. In fact, it's a pretty poor one in terms of what it offers. But Apple users are highly loyal to Apple. And they know that. Which is why people signed up in the first place, despite it offering less than great benefits even for a free card.

No it's not. 2% cash back is only offered when using Apple Pay. There are countless other cards that offer 2-3% cash back for ANY transaction and offer 5% on many categories.Apple's card is highly competitive and Amazon does not give CASH back that you can spend elsewhere.
Purchases with the Apple Card physical card are only 1% cash back, despite the industry standard being 1.5%.
Nerdwallet says it's not competitive. Forbes says it's a 2.5 out of 5 stars and isn't competitive. Cash back is lower than others and it offers no signup bonus, as most others do.

My point was Amazon’s Apple sales likely save you more than whatever cash back you get from the Apple Card (iPads often 10% off), so not only does more money stay in your pocket, Amazon sweetens the deal with another 5% back to spend on their site.Apple's card is highly competitive and Amazon does not give CASH back that you can spend elsewhere.
I get it, not perfect - can’t configure Macs on Amazon, and not buying directly from Apple. But to call the Apple Card highly competitive is genuinely funny.
