[34]
here editor-in-chief at gearlive.com and
[36]
as i mentioned today we are going over
[38]
your questions that you submitted about
[41]
apple's newest product the apple card
[44]
now as i mentioned in the open i just
[45]
got my invitation to apply for the apple
[47]
card so i'll show you what the
[48]
application process looks like and i've
[50]
also collected the questions you sent
[52]
over on twitter
[54]
facebook and over on the youtube
[56]
community tab did my research talked to
[58]
apple and got some answers for you as
[60]
well so let's kick this off with how the
[62]
apple card works i think one of the most
[65]
important things you need to know is
[67]
that in order to get the apple card you
[69]
have to have an iphone that's right the
[72]
apple car requires an iphone to apply
[74]
you won't be able to apply in a web
[76]
browser or on an android device or even
[79]
on an ipad ipod touch or mac the only
[82]
way to apply for the apple card and get
[84]
it into your apple wallet
[86]
is with an apple iphone the card number
[89]
of your apple card is accessible in the
[91]
wallet app on your iphone and that means
[93]
you can use the card right away as soon
[95]
as it appears in your wallet you do not
[97]
need to wait for the physical card to
[100]
arrive and in fact as you saw you don't
[101]
even have to opt to receive a physical
[104]
card if you don't want to as you use it
[106]
you'll see your digital card will change
[107]
colors based on the categories of the
[110]
transactions that you make so as you're
[111]
seeing videos of other people's apple
[113]
cars or even apple's official marketing
[115]
the apple card in the app looks
[117]
different depending on whose card you're
[119]
looking at so all the different colors
[120]
and gradients that you see on someone's
[122]
apple card that's an indication of the
[123]
categories or products they end up
[125]
spending money on using their card
[127]
speaking of the physical card it's a
[128]
titanium etched card which will arrive
[131]
in the mail a few days later after you
[132]
apply and are approved the card itself
[134]
will have your name on it along with an
[135]
apple logo on front
[137]
and a goldman sachs and mastercard logo
[139]
on the back there's no card number on
[141]
the card itself and there's no signature
[143]
line either now when you feel the apple
[145]
card in your hand it's very heavy it's
[147]
made of metal one thing i asked apple
[149]
about was if there was any sort of
[151]
replacement fee
[152]
if you happen to lose your card misplace
[154]
your card or have your card stolen
[157]
apple told me no there is no replacement
[159]
fee at all if you need a replacement
[160]
apple card just let them know and they
[162]
will send one out now let's talk about
[164]
the benefits for a moment what do you
[166]
get in exchange for using the apple card
[169]
benefits are a big deal these days
[171]
because anyone can offer a credit card
[173]
but a lot of people look towards
[174]
additional
[175]
perks what else do i get for signing up
[178]
with your card versus signing up for
[181]
someone else's card do i get airplane
[183]
miles hotel points
[185]
cash back double points when i buy
[187]
something at a restaurant do i get free
[189]
gas money there's all sorts of different
[191]
perks out there and these are the ones
[193]
that apple's offering with the apple
[195]
card at launch so the first benefit of
[197]
the apple card is three percent cash
[199]
back on purchases made from apple itself
[202]
and to be clear
[204]
there shouldn't be a lot of confusion
[205]
about this it's not just apple hardware
[208]
purchases it's not just things that you
[209]
buy at the physical apple store or apple
[212]
store online it's anything
[215]
that you buy through apple so that
[217]
includes the apple store so if you're
[218]
buying a new macbook pro or a homepod or
[221]
an iphone those things will be eligible
[224]
to get three percent cash back
[226]
but if you charge your apple music
[228]
subscription your icloud storage
[230]
subscription any apple tv channels you
[232]
subscribe to apple news if you're not
[234]
subscribing to apple tv plus all of
[236]
these things that you would pay apple
[238]
for subscription services etc are all
[241]
eligible for that three percent
[243]
cash back so again three percent cash
[245]
back on purchases made from apple itself
[248]
next up there is two percent cashback
[251]
when using your apple card with apple
[254]
pay so any apple pay transaction those
[256]
are the transactions where you tap to
[258]
pay you're not swiping your physical
[260]
card if you use apple pay you will get
[262]
two percent cash back on those purchases
[265]
with the exception of course being if
[267]
you use apple pay in an apple store that
[269]
will be three percent cash back apple
[271]
was cleared during the announcement of
[273]
the apple car that there's no limit to
[274]
these so you can use your card as much
[276]
as you want and you'll get that cash
[277]
back for any purchases you make with no
[280]
limits and finally there is one percent
[282]
cash back for the instances where you
[284]
need to actually swipe your physical
[286]
card and i feel like at least here where
[288]
i live in the places i travel to here in
[290]
seattle um la new york san francisco etc
[295]
i'm finding more and more that i'm able
[297]
to use apple pay in almost every place i
[300]
go to but there are instances where you
[301]
do need to bust out your physical card
[304]
and swipe it and when it comes to those
[306]
transactions you are only getting one
[308]
percent cash back so again anytime you
[311]
need to take out that physical apple
[313]
card from your wallet when you swipe
[315]
with it you're only getting one percent
[317]
back now for all the cash that accrues
[319]
as you're using your apple card to pay
[320]
apple with apple pay and with swiping at
[323]
the end of the day you're credited with
[325]
your apple daily cash so all the cash
[327]
back that you've accumulated during that
[329]
day is available to you to use at the
[331]
end of every day now this money is
[333]
deposited onto your apple cash card in
[336]
your apple wallet and you can use it
[337]
just like you would any other cash on
[339]
your apple cash card which means you can
[341]
apple pay a friend in messages you can
[343]
use your apple cash card with apple pay
[345]
at a store and you can even take the
[347]
cash that you accumulated and put it
[349]
right back onto your apple card to bring
[351]
down your balance now to be fair these
[353]
are not the best benefits that you're
[355]
going to be able to find when shopping
[357]
around for credit cards so if you're
[359]
purely about the bonuses you'll probably
[361]
want to look elsewhere now it should
[363]
also be stated that the apple card does
[365]
not have any fees there's no over limit
[368]
fees transaction fees annual fees all
[371]
there's no fees at all with your apple
[374]
card you will get finance charges if you
[376]
don't pay your bill but there's no extra
[378]
additional fees with the apple card
[380]
which is something that's rare the one
[383]
question that i got from someone was can
[385]
i pay someone else with my apple card so
[387]
i'm not buying from a store but can i
[388]
pay a friend for example with my apple
[391]
cart and the answer is
[393]
pretty much no you cannot pay someone
[397]
from your apple card to their apple cash
[400]
account you can't treat the apple card
[401]
as apple cash those are two separate
[404]
things and again it makes sense because
[405]
the apple card gives you bonuses for
[407]
spending and you're not gonna be able to
[409]
send money back and forth to your best
[411]
friend in order to accumulate that sweet
[413]
sweet daily cash without really actually
[417]
spending any money on anything apple
[419]
cash is funded by debit cards not credit
[421]
cards and the apple card is a credit
[424]
card so no you cannot use that for apple
[426]
pay person to person
[428]
transactions however if your friend does
[430]
have something like a square reader or
[432]
credit card reader then yes you can pay
[435]
that person with a credit card
[437]
transaction
[438]
using their credit card reader or device
[442]
and the last question i got from you
[444]
guys on the apple card is what if i want
[445]
to have a joint account i have a spouse
[447]
i have a significant other all of our
[449]
other credit cards are joint accounts we
[451]
want to have a joint account with the
[452]
apple card as well the answer right now
[454]
is no the apple card is only set up
[457]
currently for individual accounts so if
[460]
you have a spouse
[461]
you have someone else significant in
[462]
your life
[463]
they will need to apply for their own
[465]
apple car to be approved on their own
[467]
merit rather than being a sub account or
[470]
a card holder on your account at least
[473]
right now would not be surprised if
[475]
apple added the ability to have joint
[477]
accounts in the future especially with
[478]
their whole family sharing thing that we
[480]
see on pretty much every other service
[482]
that they offer but for now the apple
[483]
card is an individual account card if
[487]
you want to learn more about the apple
[488]
card head over to
[491]
apple apple.com
[491]
card if you watch this video before it
[493]
is publicly available you can even sign
[495]
up for a chance to get early access to
[497]
the card as well so there you have it
[499]
guys that was your look at the apple
[500]
card let me know what you think do you
[502]

[504]

[506]

[508]
for in a credit card sound off in the
[510]
comments below i will meet you there for
[512]
further discussion for me a few percent
[514]
cash back i'll be happily taking
[516]
advantage of that especially when apple
[518]
drops that mac pro
[521]
in just a couple of months speaking of
[524]
in a couple of months apple will be
[525]
releasing ios 13 in just about a month
