Set up and use Savings in Apple Wallet

Earn interest on your Daily Cash and any additional deposits that you make when you set up a Savings account.1 Savings provided by Goldman Sachs Bank USA, Member FDIC.2

How Savings works

When you set up Savings, you're agreeing to have future Daily Cash automatically deposited into your account — this allows you to earn interest on the Daily Cash that you get back from Apple Card purchases.3 You'll also earn interest on deposits you make to Savings from a linked external bank account or Apple Cash.4 And there are no fees or minimum balance requirements.5

You can't spend money or make purchases in Savings directly through your Apple Card or Apple Pay. To access your funds, you can transfer money from Savings to Apple Cash or a linked external bank account.

If you have Apple Card Family

Only Apple Card Family account owners and co-owners can set up Savings. Savings accounts set up by Apple Card owners and co-owners are separate, individual accounts. Savings does not offer a joint account feature. Apple Card participants aren't eligible to set up Savings accounts.
