Apple Pay

Apple Cash, the Apple Pay peer-to-peer payment service similar to Venmo, is a quick and convenient way to send and receive money through your iPhone. A common question with this Apple Pay feature, though, is: "Can you transfer Apple Pay to the bank?" Yes! Not only is it possible, but it's easy and efficient. Without this capability, Apple Cash would be unable to reach its potential as a full-service payment platform, and limit users greatly in how they could use the money they receive. Let's look at how to transfer Apple Cash to the bank and get the most out of this service.

Earlier today, Apple made a game changing announcement for the credit card industry. While it has been speculated about for years, Apple finally unveiled its intent to become a credit card company with the introduction of Apple Card. In addition to removing most of the sources of traditional credit card service revenue such as late fees, annual fees, and over limit fees to name a few, Apple also promised not to track payments or sell card activities to third parties. Although there will be a physical card available, this is clearly a card that is meant to be iPhone first. Users will apply for and be approved for the card via their iPhone, use it with Apple Pay, and even contact customer service via Messages. Apple is partnering with Goldman Sachs as the bank of record.

Apple announced the Apple Business Chat platform at WWDC 2017 and iOS 11.3 has finally introduced us to the program. The Business Chat platform allows iPhone users to connect with companies through iMessages, or from the businesses' app or website, rather than talking on the phone. Apple is rolling out Business Chat slowly; it's only available as a beta version right now, with a limited number of partner companies. Let's stay ahead of the curve and learn how to use Business Chat on our iPhones.
