Apple Card Beginning to Show Up on Equifax Credit Reports

Apple Card is starting to show up on Equifax credit reports, but not yet for all users, according to a Reddit discussion today.

Apple Card info is now being reported to all three major credit bureaus in the United States, with the other two being Experian and TransUnion. As with any credit card, Apple Card usage can positively or negatively one's credit score based on factors such as payment history, credit utilization, and age of the account.

To apply for an ‌Apple Card‌, open the Wallet app on an iPhone running iOS 12.4 or later, tap the plus button in the top-right corner, and follow the on-screen steps. The process takes just a few minutes, and if approved, a digital ‌Apple Card‌ will be ready for purchases immediately. A physical, titanium Apple Card can also be requested through the Wallet app for use at retail stores that do not accept contactless payments.

Apple Card's key features include color-coded spending summaries in the Wallet app, no fees, and up to three percent cashback on purchases, paid out daily.

While the new iPad mini has an OLED display, the device does not support ProMotion, meaning the display's refresh rate is limited to 60Hz instead of 120Hz. ProMotion support would have allowed for the iPad mini's refresh rate to automatically adjust from 10Hz to 120Hz depending on the content being displayed, but evidently Apple has kept the feature exclusive to the iPad Pro among iPad...

I've enjoyed my Apple Card so far and building some more Apple Cash. I am looking forward to using the 0% financing option when the new ARM iMac's come out.

Credit Karma is fake credit reporting. Dont rely on them and look for the mention on their site that their reporting is for educational purposes only.

And know which bureau serves your area. And only Experian has the actual FICO.
Credit Karma uses VantageScore 3.0. I know it's not exactly the same as FICO, however I wouldn't go so far as to call it fake– it's been extremely accurate in terms of what accounts I have and what balances they show. Either way, my FICO 8 doesn't show my Apple Card balance, either.

Contactless payments is what drew me to the card/Wallet.

I also like how there is no card number on the physical card so when the restaurant waitperson takes my card out of sight, I know they can not capture my card info...

Ha, I had just reached out to Apple Card support last week and asked about this since I noticed it still wasn’t showing up. They said "We report to TransUnion and Experian and potentially other bureaus in the future."

We’re living in the future!
