When u apply for apple cc they will give u a limit line as well.
I want u to understand that if you receive 2500$ credit line.
And the MacBook costs 1199$
This will mean you will use 2000 dollar out of 2500 dollar.
This will result in a very very very high utilization.
So don’t open an apple credit card to ruin ur credit score for 24 months :)
There is an alternative to do this which will be the best way for you.
In the other hand I can recommend u to purchase the Mac book when u have the whole money. But-
Pay 950$ out of the 1199 mac book price. The balance in your card will be 249$
This means == you are using approximately 250 dollars out of 2500 from your apple credit card. Which is 10% utilization.
I know my english is bad and I tried my beat to explain what will happen but yeah.
We open credit cards to build it not use it.
When u use it for the mac book it will hurt you. Also this will be ur 2nd card so u are not guaranteed to have a hight amount of credit line(not impossible tho)
