Apple is seemingly offering Apple Card customers 6% cashback for purchases made from Apple instead of the regular 3% cashback usually offered to Apple Card customers.
Apple has yet to announce the promotion, but Apple is giving customers 6% cashback for purchases made from the Apple Store instead of 3%, according to several posts across social media and the MacRumors Forum. Apple ran a similar offer in 2019 and another in March of this year for new Apple Card customers, but this new yet-to-be-announced promotion seems to apply for all Apple Card customers making Apple Store purchases.
Looks like Apple is offering 6% cash back for certain orders now! It was capped at 3% previously pic.twitter.com/qLDBAk3V2s

Haven't seen anyone show this but perhaps there's a 6% cash back promo Apple hasn't announced yet? I just hope this isn't a bug 😂 Didn't apply to my AirPods 3 so possibly if you spend over a certain amount they go to 6%? pic.twitter.com/PVc8sDsshF

Pre-orders for the new 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pros opened this week, and Apple could possibly be running the promotion as a way to incentivize customers with the pre-ordering the latest MacBook Pros, and other products and accessories. We've contacted Apple for more information and will update if we hear back.
Update: There appears to be significant confusion over the situation, with only some users seeing 6% while others are seeing 3%. Apple has not announced a promotion, and customer support representatives are generally saying the 6% mentions were an error. We're also hearing mixed responses about whether Apple is honoring the 6% as Daily Cash is being credited to users' accounts.

I ordered my MBP at launch but it only says "eligible for 3%". Hopefully that change when the charge actually goes through. ETA: my ETA isn't until Nov 3-5 so I don't think I'll be charged soon.
