      Common questions

      Which card has the bigger sign-up bonus, Apple Card or BankAmericard Credit Card?
      The BankAmericard Credit Card has a public bonus (verify current offer, worth roughly $0), while the Apple Card doesn't advertise one right now.
      Is the Apple Card's $0 annual fee worth it compared to the BankAmericard Credit Card?
      The Apple Card has no annual fee, so the question is whether the BankAmericard Credit Card's $0 fee is justified by its perks. If you'll use enough of the BankAmericard Credit Card's benefits to clear $0 in value annually, it's worth it; otherwise stick with the Apple Card.
      Can I have both the Apple Card and BankAmericard Credit Card?
      Yes, since they're from different issuers (Goldman Sachs and Bank of America) the application rules don't conflict. Many points enthusiasts hold both, they pair well when one earns flexible bank points and the other earns a different currency.
      Should I get the Apple Card or the BankAmericard Credit Card first?
      Get the one whose sign-up bonus you can hit comfortably without overspending. Apple Card: no published min spend. BankAmericard Credit Card: $0 in 0 months. Pick the easier minimum spend if you're new to points; pick the larger bonus if you have planned big purchases coming up.
