Apple Savings Reaches $10 Billion in Deposits
In April, Apple launched its savings account product. A few weeks later, a Forbes article reported that Apple saw inflows of almost $1 billion in the first four days after the launch. At the time, I wrote that it was a sign of a huge unmet need and perfect timing (right after the Silicon Valley Bank failure).
This week, Apple shared that its savings account product has reached $10 billion in deposits. An astonishing amount in just four monthsâespecially when you consider that the savings product is available only to people who have an Apple Card. I wonder what the deposits would look like if the account were available to iPhone users who donât have an Apple Card.
This product is off to a strong start, and I canât wait to see how it does over time and what Appleâs next banking move will be.
iBank coming soon?
