Editorial: Free advertising for Apple Card isn't coming from unit sales or market share
A good piece by Mr Dilger.
I would throw in another thought:
by making cash back 2% for ApplePay purchases but 1% when using the physical card, Apple is encouraging users to break habit of “just taking out a card” and, in fact, putting pressure on vendors via their customers to equip with NFC readers.There are still many places (in the US) that take credit cards via chip or swipe but do not have contactless readers.

I went to Wallet, signed up and got the account in 2 minutes while waiting for the subway. Super fast and easy!
