Apple Arcade will give customers the freedom to try any game from its handpicked collection of titles that are all-you-can-play, have no ads, ad tracking or additional purchases, and respect user privacy.
Apple Arcade is launching this fall in more than 150 countries, but Apple is not yet revealing pricing for this subscription service.
They also announced a new Apple Card credit card, promising to improve things about the credit card experience with simpler applications, no fees, lower interest rates, and better rewards.

All of that authorization information is stored directly in the Apple Wallet app.
