Ah, that would make sense, and if you buy a new iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch every year and are subscribed to Apple Music, News Plus and the new TV service maybe they’ll pay you interest instead of charging it? Anyways, even at 13% it would be stupid to actually use the card for credit beyond the payment due date, people need to start realizing that they are digging the hole ever deeper if they don’t pay off their full balance by the time the payment is due every month. Credit cards are great, you can rack up rewards and delay paying for something for close to 6 weeks if you buy an item right after your billing date, but they should not be used to carry a balance, if you do then you spend more than you can afford and that’s always a bad idea.

This stated directly in their terms and conditions for the card.

If I don’t pay my statement balance in full by the due date I don’t get a penalty either, but I am being charged interest and as we all know, interest on credit cards are high whether they are 13%, 19% or 24% Especially if you consider how low interest rates still are, I pay less than 3% on my mortgage and a line of credit here in Canada is typically anywhere between 6% and 8% depending on your situation and ability to back the line of credit with equity in your home. What was written about being able to basically generate new card numbers is interesting and a constantly changing CVV would also make fraud difficult. new card numbers being genew depending on From: viphone@googlegroups.com <viphone@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of KliphnShari Miller Sent: Thursday, March 28, 2019 4:40 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Apple Card tidbits: No support for shared accounts, security details, penalty interest rates, more - 9to5Mac Chance Miller <https://9to5mac.com/author/chmiller44/> [Image removed by sender.] One of the most interesting announcements from Apple’s event on Monday was the Apple Card<https://9to5mac.com/2019/03/25/apple-unveils-apple-card-in-partnership-with-goldman-sachs/>. While a number of details about the card were revealed<https://9to5mac.com/2019/03/25/apple-card-tidbits-wallet-integration-daily-cash-details-no-fees-more/> on Monday, TechCrunch<https://techcrunch.com/2019/03/28/how-apple-card-works/> is out today with a closer look at Apple Card and how it works. TechCrunch’s Matthew Panzarino explains that the version of Apple Card shown on Monday is Apple’s “version 1.” This means that, much like other Apple products, the company will be “iterating on the contest with new features and benefits.” One of the things about Apple Card that Apple touts is that it will offer “interest rates that are among the lowest in the industry.” The fine print here says that rates will vary between 13 percent and 24 percent, which is rather standard in the credit card industry. Panzarino notes of two things Apple will be doing to set itself apart here. For one, there is no “penalty interest rate” on Apple Card. Apple touted on stage on Monday that there would be no fees for late payments, which led some to speculate that Apple would increase your interest rate if you were late. That isn’t the case. Penalty rates are an increase of your interest rate if you fail to pay on time. That is not true. Apple Card has no late fees and no penalty rates. You will continue to pay your agreed upon interest rate on your outstanding balance, but that rate will not go up. It will impact your credit score, as Apple does do standard reporting. Further, Apple will attempt to “place Apple Card users at the low end of their interest rate tier.” This means the company will try to “shift you to the bottom of a tier when you qualify” as opposed to having you pay the interest rate that correlates exactly to your credit score. Other details of note include that Apple Card does not require a signature, as well as the fact that the physical card has a “fixed number on the mag stripe, but you don’t know what it is.” The only thing you see are the last four digits. There is also no support for multiple users or shared cards, while replacement cards are free. You’ll also have to have two-factor authentication setup. In terms of security, Apple Card will allow you to generate a new credit card number at any time through the Wallet app. Furthermore, your CVV will refresh at every transaction. You can hit a button to regenerate the PAN (primary account number), providing you with a new credit card number at any time. This is great for situations where you are forced to tell someone your credit card number but do not necessarily completely trust the recipient Each purchase requires a confirmation code (CVV) that will refresh every transaction. Last but not least, Panzarino offers some color on why Apple decided to base the Apple Card rewards system on cash back instead of points or miles. Essentially, Apple wanted “the simplest, most universal benefit structure,” which is cash.
