Users who want to pay their bill in installments can do so using a ring provided for this purpose - the interest is of course also displayed. Billing can be customized. For example, automatic debits on a weekly, bi-weekly or monthly basis are available. The Apple Card also has intelligent payment suggestions that can adapt to the user.
