The Physical Apple Card Isn’t Contactless
It’s a small detail, but it’s still worth noting. The physical titanium Apple Card is not contactless. That means you’ll be left to use the mag strip or the chip for transactions at contactless payment terminals.
Of course, the Apple Card is tightly integrated with Apple Pay, meaning that you shouldn’t have a problem using your iPhone to make payments at those terminals. On the other hand, there are still plenty of contactless payment terminals that don’t currently support Apple Pay. Just food for thought.
