What do you need to do to qualify for an Apple Card?
In order to apply for an Apple Card, you need an iPhone, and some existing credit might also be required. Apple has not announced the exact credit score range within which you will need to be in order to qualify for Apple’s credit card. However, some suggest that if you have lower credit scores higher interest rates, up to 24.24 percent will be for you. That has been estimated in comparison with other credit cards in this category such as Discover Card and Chase Freedom.
Mastercard would process the payments while Goldman Sachs issues the Apple Card. Goldman Sachs will be looking at other criteria beyond credit scores, Apple told The Verge, but no specifications have been mentioned, and the issuing company declined to comment.
This summer the Apple Card will become available, and in order to apply for it, you will need to use the Wallet app on your iPhone. Along with the approval, instant access to a digital version of the card will be provided as it appears automatically in the app. The physical, chip-enabled card will also be shipped to you after a brief waiting period.
