No. They all have different meanings entirely. What's to be confused about?


Apple Cash is a digital debit account and card where Daily Cash is deposited if you have not yet activated an Apple Savings account.

Apple Cash - Apple


Daily Cash is the cash back you get from purchases using your Apple Card and it is deposited in Apple Cash unless you have an Apple Savings account enabled.

Apple Savings was released barely a month a go. So you cannot possible have had it for a couple of months.


Also, as Chattanoogan mentions the 4.15%APY is calculated yearly and added monthly. So at this point, you would have only had 1 deposit for it at most.


Which means if you had say $100 in it, you would have received (100x.0415) / 12. That's around 35 cents assuming you had 100 dollars in the account.

Phil – minor correction. The interest rate is 4.07%, but because of the daily compounding, the Annual Percentage Yield (APY) is 4.15%. So, invest a $100 and 365 days later, you’ll have a total of $104.15. This assumes no additional deposits or withdrawals and no changes to the interest rates. Interest rates are not guaranteed and accounts are FDIC insured.


Another way to explain is take 4.15 and divide by 365, for a daily rate. However, that doesn’t take into compounding and slight errors result. Get into high 6 or 7 figures and it gets important/significant.

Which is what I said. Divide that 4.15 by 12 months, and you would have received around 35 cents per month.
