No, the Apple Card does not offer rental car insurance. Even though the Apple Card doesn’t have rental car insurance, this perk is one of the few credit card benefits that still come with many credit card offers.

In general, credit card rental car insurance provides coverage against damage and theft of a rental vehicle, up to a certain amount. You get this benefit when the rental is paid for entirely with an eligible credit card. To get coverage, the cardholder must decline the rental agency’s insurance plan.

Alternative Credit Card Options

If you’d like a credit card with rental car insurance, there are plenty of other options to choose from. Some good examples include the Chase Sapphire Preferred® Card, the Bank of America® Premium Rewards® credit card, and the Capital One Venture Rewards Credit Card.

The fact that Apple Card cash advances are not an option might actually be a blessing in disguise. Cash advances are very expensive, thanks to a cash advance fee and a separate cash advance APR that apply as soon as you withdraw the...
