Apple Card Expands Perks, Prepares Shift to Chase as New Features Unveiled
August 29, 2026
Apple Card continues to evolve with new features and perks tied to iOS 27 and beyond, reinforcing its expanding role in the Apple ecosystem.
A major strategic shift is on the horizon as Apple Card will transition from Goldman Sachs to Chase, planned to occur in roughly two years, with Apple signaling that some core aspects will stay the same while the full implications are being worked out.
Overall, the Apple Card presents a strong option for Apple users, highlighted by 3% Daily Cash on Apple subscriptions and 0% financing for Apple hardware, though some may find higher rewards elsewhere.
Savings accessibility is improving, as Apple Card Savings can now be viewed and managed directly in a web browser, expanding beyond the iPhone.
Hertz perks for Apple Card include Free Emergency Roadside Service, discounted loss damage waiver at $16.95 per day, a free additional driver at pickup, and at least 5% savings on Pay Later base rates, in addition to 3% Daily Cash on Hertz rentals.
Booking.com perks for Apple Card users include Genius Level 2 status after one stay or car rental, plus 3% Daily Cash on Booking.com transactions, with potential discounts and benefits like 10–15% off, free breakfast, and room upgrades.
