  • $249 in cash back is set to go to new Apple Card customers who sign up in Apple retail stores and buy AirPods Pro 3, with the promotion expected to start as soon as next week.

  • Apple’s usual Apple Card sign-up bonuses are smaller and often require a referral, making this offer unusually rich for a card with no annual fee.
  • The push comes as Apple Card shifts from Goldman Sachs to Chase under a deal reached earlier this year, with the full handover expected to take two years.
