Who Is Eligible for PNC Credit Limit Increases?

When you have a , you're able to get credit limit increases from time to time. Your initial limit doesn't have to last forever. However, not every person will get approved. At least, not until they meet a few criteria:

Must have your account in good standing, with on-time payments
Must have an improved credit score
Must maintain a low credit utilization rate
Must have no delinquent accounts or other problems on your credit report

Frequently, PNC will automatically issue you a credit limit increase if you meet the above criteria. Say you want a PNC Cashbuilder credit limit increase on your cashback rewards card. They typically assess your financial situation around every six months or so and increase your line if they feel you can handle it.

What Are the Things to Consider When Asking for a Credit Limit Increase

Before requesting a credit limit increase on any business card, it's essential to make sure that you're financially ready. Among some of the most important factors to go over are:

Your Payment History	If you've been able to make all of your card payments on time, every time, you're likely ready for the increased responsibility of a higher credit limit.
The Potential Impact of a Hard Pull on Your Credit Score	Requesting a higher credit limit for any business credit card will likely initiate a hard inquiry on your credit report. If you're just starting to build your credit, having a hard inquiry now could knock more points off of your score. Cardholders with extensive credit histories are less affected by challenging questions.
Your Current Financial Standing	If you've recently lost your job, lost a significant customer, or experienced other adverse changes in your personal or business finances, it may be best to wait for things to level off before applying. Having consistent income and being in good standing with all of your creditors will give you the greatest likelihood of getting a credit limit increase.
How Increased Spending Power Will Impact Your Business	Getting a higher credit limit on your card could significantly improve your bottom line. With extra money at your disposal, you can implement more aggressive marketing campaigns, expand your inventory, or invest in much-needed equipment, tools, and other resources. If getting a credit limit increase will make your business more profitable and better able to meet your clients’ needs, use DoNotPay to get the process started today.
