This week through January 31, new Apple Card customers can receive 5% Daily Cash back for purchases made through Apple compared to the 3% reward typically offered to customers.
New Apple Card customers who create an account between December 26 and January 31 will be eligible for the 2% higher cash back on iPhone, Apple Watch, Mac, iPad, and other purchases when paid in full. Customers will receive 3% Daily Cash back when paying via installments.
The new promotion is not available to existing Apple Card customers, who will continue to receive the standard 3% Daily Cash back rate.
Apple Card's Daily Cash is credited to customers daily and can be used as normal cash, sent to friends or family, or transferred to a bank account. Apple ran a similar promotion for all Apple Card users in 2019, but that year, it offered 6% Daily Cash back, double the standard rate.

How is it really different than any other credit card company? When my wife got her Sapphire Preferred card, she got 60,000 points for her sign up offer; I got 100,000. Sign up offers or promos are always changing.
