Apple Card Promotion Offers 6% Cash Back at Panera

Apple in August is offering a new Apple Card promotion that will see ‌Apple Card‌ holders entitled to extra Daily Cash rewards for Panera Bread purchases. Through the end of the month, ‌Apple Card‌ users who make a purchase at Panera using Apple Pay can earn 6% cash back instead of 3% cash back.

Getting the cash back reward requires Panera customers to use ‌Apple Pay‌ with the ‌Apple Card‌ specifically, and the 6% bonus is available for up to $500 in spending throughout August. ‌Apple Card‌ owners who purchase $500 in Panera food can earn $30.

Purchases can be made at U.S. Panera stores, in the Panera app, and on the Panera website.

Apple partners with a number of vendors to offer three percent Daily Cash back on ‌‌Apple Pay‌‌ purchases made with ‌‌Apple Card‌‌, including Panera Bread. 3% cash back can also be earned from Ace, T-Mobile, Nike, Uber Eats, Uber, Panera, Walgreens, Exxon Mobil, and Apple's own retail stores.

Standard ‌‌Apple Pay‌‌ purchases earn two percent cash back, and all other purchases earn one percent.

(Thanks, Issa!)

I'd rather save 100% on Panera by never eating there. Too expensive for what it is and what you get, IMO.

Maximize your savings by buying a Panera gift card at 20% off ('https://www.panerabread.com/en-us/gift-cards.html') and then getting 6% Apple Cash back on it.

Apple Card holders can also get 3 months free of Panera's Unlimited Sip Club

I keep trying to look at the US pricing. Their website keeps redirecting me to the Canadian site, and there's no Panera Bread shops available in my area, so just a "missing image" icon shows up. Is Panera the Starbucks of bread?
Panera is a Denny's pretending to be upscale.

A 6% discount at one of the most expensive food chains. Not bad.
