Capital One BuyPower Card: Credit Limit Increase

Using credit cards responsibly has many benefits. A higher credit limit on your credit card gives you more spending power and reduces the chance that you'll max out your credit card. You may want a higher credit limit only for financial emergencies.

Higher credit limits can also help improve your credit score if you keep your balance low. If you are considering requesting a Capital One BuyPower Card credit limit increase, DoNotPay can help.

What Do You Need To Know About Credit Limit Increases?

While each bank has different procedures and policies, and your individual circumstances may vary, credit limit increases are typically handled similarly by most banks and credit card issuers.

Who Can Get a Credit Limit Increase?

Anyone can apply for a credit limit increase at any time, but you are more likely to be approved for a Capital One credit increase if:

1. You make on-time payments with Capital One.
2. You make on-time payments to all other creditors.
3. You make larger monthly payments (more than the minimum payment) that pay down your balance.

These events may lessen your chance of receiving a credit limit increase:

• The card is a new account opened in the last several months.
• You have a secured credit card.
• You had a recent credit limit increase
• You had a recent credit limit decrease

Factors That Influence Credit Limit Increases

When you request a credit limit increase, Capital One may pull your credit report(s) and use that information to help determine if you are eligible for a credit limit increase.

• History of on-time vs. delinquent payments
• Your Credit History
• Your Credit Score
• Your Income
• Credit Card Utilization Rate (Your balance compared to current credit limit)
• History of Hard Inquiries

Generally speaking, Capital One needs proof that you can handle credit card spending responsibly now and in the future.
