Steps on How to Get a Klarna Credit Limit Increase

A credit limit increase can do a lot for your financial leeway with purchasing and even helps boost your credit score since it lowers your overall credit use percentage. The problem is that the process is often a hassle to do on your own because it requires jumping through various hoops for some companies.

Are you stuck with a low credit limit? Request a using DoNotPay.

Instead of hunting down contact information and sending requests yourself, all you have to do is answer some questions about your current card, income, employment status, and more, and we'll use that information to send a formal request on your behalf to your credit provider to ask for a limit increase.

What You Need to Know About a Credit Limit Increase and Klarna

are slightly different from your typical credit card limit. For instance, they do not consider the amount you have to spend as a 'credit limit' — they define it as a 'spending limit.'

Also, they do not give you a guaranteed limit that you can increase. It's more of an estimation, so you may be able to spend more or restricted from spending as much depending on these three factors:

  1. The store you're shopping at
  2. The payment option you choose
  3. The amount of your purchase

However, keep in mind that you still must spend at least $10 on a purchase to even use Klarna.

DoNotPay can show you how to increase credit limits on a number of your accounts, from Discover, Bank of America, and Wells Fargo to other credit card companies like Citi, Credit One, and American Express.

How to Request a Klarna Credit Limit Increase on Your Own

Since Klarna is a bit different from your typical credit card, the ways for requesting an increase can also be different. For instance, you would not be able to just go online and request a credit limit increase on the Klarna website. Even calling their representatives may lend you no help at all.

These options are your only real chance for a Klarna credit limit increase:

  • Try to make the purchase and see what happens
  • Write a formal letter ahead of time to gauge your approval odds

Klarna says on their site that the only way for your spending limit to be increased is for you to purchase your spending limit estimation. It is then sent over to experts who will evaluate your request through a standard decision process. If you're eligible for the requested increase, the purchase will be approved.

This can be risky because you don't actually know if you're going to be able to get the purchase until you try getting the purchase.

Instead, you may want to consider writing and sending over a formal letter to the company to evaluate ahead of time if you can make a big purchase you plan on making. Since this is not common, there is no good outline for what to write or who to write to.

Fortunately, DoNotPay can find the answers for you and craft the message in a way that will encourage an appropriate response to your questions.
