I think the point behind the Apple Card is to drive NFC payments adoption in the US. Australia has a near complete penetration of NFC while the US does not.

Only time will tell whether we get the Apple Card, but due to the Australian Reserve Bank’s interchange fee cap, we’ll likely not see the same cash back offer if it ever does land here.

It will be interesting to see other markets’ reception of Apple Card and Apple Pay too.
