Which card is that, that takes away the incentive? I use Apple Pay pretty frequently and still get my cashback rate, or double points incentives on the cards that I use.

Among others the Citi Double Cash, earned in 2 steps:

1% earned when spending

1% earned when paying the bill

Cashback is not immediately applied to the balance so it's actually 2% and not something like 1.9999999. No annual fee but it's not really worth it to apply for this card per se, better to get another card that comes with a signup bonus (this one never does) and "product change" it to this card by calling in.

You're right, I worded that poorly. I meant only for when I pay with cash I lose the 2%.
