Apple Card now offering 6% Daily Cash on Apple Store purchases
Apple appears to be quietly offering 6% daily cash back for Apple Card users who purchase new hardware or accessories from the online Apple Store.

The new promotion, which has yet to be officially announced, was first spotted by Tailosive Tech. At least one other user also shared an image of their Apple Store transaction netting 6% in Daily Cash Back.
AppleInsider has confirmed the cash back promotion applies to all Apple Store purchases.
It isn't entirely clear when exactly the promotional rate kicked in, though some users have noticed the 6% cash back on their MacBook Pro pre-orders. However, some users aren't seeing that amount for their own Apple Store transactions. This may be because their apps have yet to update with the promotional rate.
This isn't the first time that Apple has offered a 6% cash back rate. Back in 2019, Apple ran a 6% cash back promotion during the busy holiday shopping season. Earlier in 2021, it also offered new Apple Card holders 6% daily cash on certain purchases for a limited time.
The promotional rate only applies to purchases made with an Apple Card on Apple's online storefront or the Apple Store app. It excludes purchases from the App Store.

Haven't seen anyone show this but perhaps there's a 6% cash back promo Apple hasn't announced yet? I just hope this isn't a bug Didn't apply to my AirPods 3 so possibly if you spend over a certain amount they go to 6%? pic.twitter.com/PVc8sDsshF

Yet when I make a new cart, it still shows 3%. Hmmm
However I do have two other pending orders. The largest one is for my new MBP that is scheduled for delivery sometime around Nov 10. Since they don’t run the AppleCard charge until they are ready to ship, I still have a few weeks before that Apple Cash will post.
My other order is for a new Apple Watch 7, but that isn’t scheduled to ship until early Dec at this point…probably still at least six weeks out!
The difference, if this promotion is real, would be an additional $120 back on my MBP. That’s certainly not inconsequential, however I don’t think it’s enough to convince me to cancel my order. I have been anxiously awaiting this machine since the M1 was announced last year so I don’t want to delay my delivery further for a non-confirmed promotion.
