Apple in Advanced Talks with JPMorgan to Replace Goldman Sachs as Credit Card Partner

Discussions between Apple and JPMorgan Chase have progressed in recent weeks, though a final agreement is still months away.

  • Apple is negotiating with JPMorgan Chase to take over its credit card program from Goldman Sachs, which has faced significant losses.
  • Talks began earlier this year and have accelerated recently, but key details like the price and terms are still being negotiated.
  • JPMorgan seeks to pay less than the $17 billion face value of outstanding Apple Card balances due to higher-than-average delinquencies.
  • Goldman Sachs is exiting the partnership after its consumer banking strategy, including the Apple Card, resulted in billions of dollars in losses.
  • Apple has also held discussions with other potential partners, including Synchrony Financial, Capital One, and American Express.
