I am considering applying for the Apple card to purchase a MacBook air. When I click on the apply link, it says Apple requires TFA.
I'm not a big fan. I dislike the intrusiveness. I dislike the "once you turn it on you can't turn it off" dictate.
Is there any way around this? Or am I being a luddite, and should jump in with both feet?

I wonder the same. I have an Apple Card and use it all the time, so I must have set up the 2FA, but it's not something that I have ever noticed since, so am not sure where the intrusion comes from. However, I've not used the physical card (though it looks very cool!), only online or with Apple Pay. Is 2FA more of an issue with a physical card?Quote

But what’s the objection to 2FA?

I regularly use the physical card, with no 2FA involved.

And have never been asked to do more than "touch ID to confirm payment" (I have an iPhone 7, so no facial recognition).
