Best Credit Cards That Have Apple TV, Other Streaming, and Music Benefits [2025]: Save More and Stream Smarter

When streaming services like Netflix first hit the market, they offered an affordable alternative to cable television. However, with all the different streaming services that have emerged over the years, including those for streaming music, you may be spending a fortune on subscriptions.

I try to keep my streaming costs down by only subscribing to a couple services at a time. Another way to help make streaming more affordable is by paying your streaming bill with a credit card that gives you cash back or rewards points for every dollar you spend or a streaming credit for purchases with certain streamers.

We've examined several credit cards that offer cash back or rewards points for streaming services, and here are our choices for the best credit cards that have Apple TV, other streaming, and music benefits.

Blue Cash Preferred^® Card from American Express

The American Express Blue Cash Preferred is a great card to have if you want to earn cash back on streaming as well as your weekly trips to the grocery store. The card earns 3% on U.S. gas stations and transit (including taxis/rideshare, parking, tolls, trains, buses and more). That's high compared to other cashback credit cards, where the highest cash back rate across categories is often 3% or 5%.

Disney fans in particular could benefit from this card, as it offers up to $10 in monthly statement credits for spending on Disney streaming platforms, specifically subscriptions or bundle subscriptions purchased through Disney+, Hulu, or ESPN.

Apple Card

If Apple products are your thing, then you should have an Apple Card in your wallet. With an Apple Card, you can buy Apple products interest free through its monthly installment plan. I've purchased an iMac and a Macbook with my Apple Card this way.

Apple also often gives you a free, limited-time subscription to its Apple TV service when you buy Apple products.

With the Apple Card, you could earn 3% on Apple purchases and purchases with select partners when using Apple Pay, including subscriptions to Apple TV and Apple Music. The card has no annual fee, late fees, or foreign transaction fees.

Capital One Savor Cash Rewards Credit Card

The Capital One Savor card is one of the best no-annual fee credit cards. You could earn 3% cash back on certain TV and music streaming services, though Capital One makes it difficult to figure out which ones.

Streaming credits vs. earning points on streaming services

Cards with a built-in streaming credit are great. It's nice to know that using the Blue Cash Preferred will cover most of your Disney+ subscription fee every month, for example.

But, if you've subscribed to several TV or music streaming services at once, it could be more beneficial to use a card that earns bonus rewards for streaming spending across platforms.

The Chase Sapphire Preferred, for example, has an elevated earn rate that applies to a range of services, so you could earn something back on your Netflix subscription, your Spotify subscription, and your Disney+ subscription.

Another card to consider that didn't make our list if you want to earn cash back on streaming is the Prime Visa. If you're a fan of Amazon's streaming library, the card earns 5% on Amazon.com, Amazon Fresh, Whole Foods Market, and Chase Travel purchases with an eligible Prime membership including Prime Video subscriptions.

FAQs

Bottom line

Choosing the right credit card for streaming depends on the streaming services you use and whether you want to get a statement credit or rewards for your spending.

If you want cash back on many top streaming services, the American Express Blue Cash Preferred card offers the highest percentage cash back, but earnings are capped. U.S. Bank's Altitude Go card is a good choice for a card that rewards points for streaming service purchases, plus it gives you a $15 credit toward annual streaming subscriptions.

There are other factors to consider, though, including APRs, fees, and bonus offerings when looking for the best credit card for you.
