Apple says it has resolved an outage affecting Apple Card, Apple Cash, and Apple Pay & Wallet that started earlier this morning. 

According to the company's System Status Page, all four were offline from 6:15 am Eastern Time until 6:49 am. Apple says that "some users were affected" by the ongoing issue, and that the company has investigated and resolved the issue. 

Only Apple's U.S. System Status page notes the outage, indicating that Apple Pay and Apple Wallet were not affected abroad. 

Apple Card is the company's reward-based credit card offered through Goldman Sachs, while  Apple Cash is an iPhone-based Cash Card that lets users send and receive money straight to and from their Apple Wallet. 

While both are popular, the former is currently a hot topic, as Goldman Sachs and Apple are reportedly looking to end their Apple Card partnership as the bank jettison its consumer businesses.
