Overview
- Apple, which launched the offer Monday, said new applicants who buy AirPods Pro 3 by June 15 can earn up to $250 paid as $25 a month from July 1, 2026 through April 30, 2027.
- Each $25 month posts only if the card records at least ten purchases of $0.01 or more, and the AirPods Pro 3 transaction does not count toward that total.
- The deal is limited to first‑time Apple Card applicants who purchase directly from Apple in the U.S., with refurbished units, third‑party retailers, international sales, business orders, and fully gift‑card‑funded checkouts excluded.
- Pay‑in‑full and Apple Card Monthly Installments both qualify, taxes and fees are not reimbursed, and returning the earbuds can void the bonus.
- AirPods Pro 3 list for $249 in the U.S. after a September 2025 debut, and coverage from multiple outlets described this as Apple Card’s biggest sign‑up promotion to date.
