Update 3/10/25: There’s now a public offer at this link for $200 back. Valid through March 21. Each month through December you make 10 or more purchases and earn $20 Bonus Daily Cash. Total will be $200 if you meet all the months from March through December.
Update 3/6/25: Another round was sent out for $300 bonus. Must apply by 3/31/25.
Update 12/12/24: Another round was sent out for $300 bonus with $1,500 spend. Must apply by 1/13/25.
Update 9/4/24: The $300 offer just expired. Apple is now sending out a new targeted $200 bonus which is broken down to ten $10 bonuses for each month you make 10+ purchases, through June 2025. Not as high offer and more annoying, but it will be easier for those who don’t have a lot of spend volume to get a $200 bonus by doing 10 tiny transactions at the vending machine or self checkout each month.

Our Verdict
Initially Apple Card offered no signup bonus at all, then they mellowed and started doing some smaller $50 – $100 bonuses; the highest we’ve seen before was a targeted $200. And so I was surprised to see this offer popped up in my email inbox – at $300 I might go for it. If you’re targeted, keep in mind this will count toward your 5/24 count for future Chase applications.
I got the $300 offer but am also seeing a 10 use deal for $20 a month. Are these combined?
I saw they are different apply link. But congratulations to you if you get both bonus
can these be churned? i got a $200 offer in 2023 and did it in combo with an iphone purchase for the 3% but have kept it since then since there are no fees
Don’t have a DP but the offer term does say “This offer is not available to applicants who have had this card or who have another pending or approved application for the card.“
ugh ok missed that, thank you! sucks apple is also lifetime
Curious why Apple is driving so many sign ups as their credit card profile is in limbo re Goldman Sachs trying to offload it.
That’s exactly why—inflate customer acquisition/user base numbers to make the product look more attractive and increase the bidding price for the portfolio.
Do you need an iPhone/Apple products if you just plan on using the physical card?
no point since you only get 1% with the physical card, and yes you do need an iPhone
There’s absolutley no point in getting this card without an iPhone.
Well, there’s still the signup bonus
Only reason why I would.
there’s plenty of cards out there with $200-300 sign up bonuses that you could actually be able to use
iPad is enough or at least it used to be.
i received the target offer with $300 welcome bonus, but I didn’t see the $300 words when clicking the link in the email…
here is the link I got: https://card.apple.com/apply/start?referrer=cid%3Dapy-110-101206
Did you have the apple card before?
Same! Don’t see the words anywhere in the application link or terms. Curious if I should proceed…
Halfway there, Apple. Call me when you can do $600 for $3k spend.
Right! these offers are dog food
yeah i was reading wondering where the deal was
Is this card friendly with bank account cc funding ?
Why would you want to put spend on an Apple Card?
For the $1,500 spend requirement?
Curious how they target these. I have excellent credit and a long time Apple account with many of their products attached, and have never had the Apple Card before. Never seem to get any of these.
How to get on their list?
I received the $300 offer after started an Apple Card application but didn’t finished it, not sure whether it’s coincidence or not.
They issued the $300 in points as soon as I met the $1500 spend. No hassles.
did you see the offer words ‘ $300 welcome bonus’ when you were applying for the card.. I received the email with this target offer, but not seeing it during the application process. A little concerned about that..
I have the same problem as well. I did have the apple card in the past though. So I am guessing their targeting algorithm is flawed.
