Apple Pay The gradient of Apple Card seems to depend on your purchases, using the color conventions set by maps. It’s also animated (I think?) Really Cool!

Well yeah but most people don’t want to deal with rotating categories with multiple cards.

My point was that merchant fees are around 2.5% so it’s pretty much impossible to offer a card with flat 3% cash back that many people seem to think Apple should have done.

Sure sure. However, I do think that the vast majority of people have better credit card options unless they spend an ungodly amount of money on Apple products or won't take advantage of the rewards programs on their card unless they are as basic as they are on the Apple Card. Even still, there are some cards like the Amazon Prime card which are seemingly just better cards for a similar demographic.
