As part of Apple Card's "preview rollout" today, Apple has posted a series of videos to its YouTube channel explaining how to set up and use ‌Apple Card‌ on iPhone.

how to use apple card video
The 10 videos cover a range of topics, including the following:

The ‌Apple Card‌ Preview began today, with a limited number of customers who signed up to be notified about the release of ‌Apple Card‌ now able to apply for the card in their Wallet app and to order a physical ‌Apple Card‌.

Customers who receive an email invitation to the ‌Apple Card‌ Preview can sign up for ‌Apple Card‌ in the Wallet app on the ‌iPhone‌ or by going to Settings > Wallet & Apple Pay on the iPad.


Apple hasn't disclosed exactly how many people are part of its "preview rollout," but a full rollout of ‌Apple Card‌ is expected later this month.

Applicants must be U.S. citizens or lawful residents of the United States and must be 18 years of age or older. An ‌iPhone‌ running iOS 12.4 or later is required to sign up for ‌Apple Card‌.

Ahead of the official public launch of the ‌Apple Card‌, Apple's wallet.apple.com website is active, providing further details on the application process.

In addition, Goldman Sachs last week made its Customer Agreement available providing more detail on the ‌Apple Card‌, and for questions about how everything will work, make sure to check out our Apple Card guide.

10 videos?
Even their most complicated software or computing devices get zero instructional videos - yet a credit card gets 10?

The hype for an average credit card is baffling. I’m an apple guy and don’t really care about this offering. That being said apple fan boys will jump on ANYTHING that’s apple branded.

The main reason people are so excited about this card, is that it will be thought of as a status symbol. And, if you use the card with Apple Pay, how will anyone know that you have an Apple Card? Can we have Siri announce it? Loudly?! :rolleyes: :cool:

Interesting that the XR and XS have a different card activation method than older phones.
From 9to5mac:

When a customer receives their titanium Apple Card, they will be able to activate it just by holding their iPhone XS or iPhone XR near the packaging. iPhone X and older devices do not have background NFC reading and will need to go into the Wallet app manually.

How so?
Credit history. Removing that card removes somewhere around 9 years of history that I have with the company.
