It says only if you have good credit.

They're really trying to squeeze every ounce they can get, even during a recession. :rip: 

 

I'm still waiting on the Savings account feature though. Finance in one app is so convenient and best believe that alone will trap me in the ecosystem for life.

This plus all the personal data they harvest from iphones. We are so gonna be screwed by this company :skull:

Paypal is doing this as well after Klarna and other services like those became a thing.

so a credit card for a credit card.

This just promotes overspending.

Not necessarily. I’ve used this type of service before to split larger purchases in interest free installments instead of my credit card. I’d still pay with my credit card to get the points but then pay it off immediately not to incur interest. So if you are able to use it responsibly it can be a great thing.

I’m an Apple user and love their products but we’re letting them have a bit too much power. They are far beyond a tech company at this point. Time to break it up.

Absolutely not. I will never be using! :fish2:

That's essentially what all tech companies are heading towards. Apple vs Google vs Microsoft will be even more prominent, becoming lifestyle companies and we really will only have few sides to pick. If we think the stupid fanwar between these companies are insufferable now, we're in for a ride decades from here. :rip: 

 

Your phone, watch, earphones, computer, AR glasses/headset, subscription services, health, finance/banking, smart home accessories, electric vehicles. Also the race in AI.

I mean Google is the worst when it comes to this and Apple is probably the best out of the 3.

I use it a lot. much safer to pay with it than with contact credit cards which no requites any password or face verification.

and I have all credit cards/company benefits in one safer place.

Screw those things. I overused klarna last year and it was so annoying then constantly yanking money out of my account whenever they want to. I owe it but it's still annoying.

this is kinda terrible and pointless :rip:
