Apple may be preparing to take its Apple Card outside US borders, with the news that the company has acquired UK-based credit scoring startup Credit Kudos for a rumored $150 million. It's been three years since Apple set out to "change the entire credit card experience" with Apple Card's quick, jargon-free application process. Credit Kudos has established a speedy way to assess the credit worthiness of a credit card applicant, so it appears perfectly aligned with Apple's goals.
