With most credit cards, you usually have to call a phone number in order to activate it. However, the Apple Card has a much more modern approach to activation [Source: TechCrunch]. To activate the physical Apple Card, you simply have to tap the card to your iPhone. It will have a similar process to setting up a pair of AirPods. This is a great idea and is a great way to not only make Apple Card stick out among a sea of credit cards, but it makes me wonder why we still call numbers to activate other cards. We have credit card apps that could easily accomplish the same thing. Apple Card is by far the coolest thing announced this week and totally proved me wrong. Apple seems to innovate best when they take a device or product that is outdated and gives us a modern take on it. They did it with AirPods and how we use Bluetooth headphones, and it looks like they're doing it with the credit card now.
