Ask your card issuer if it will bump up your limit without a hard inquiry on your credit. If you decide to move forward with the request after weighing the benefits and potential pitfalls, you can request a credit increase through a few avenues.
The easiest way is to simply ask, usually through your online banking portal or by phone. If you make a charge that puts you over your approved credit limit, your credit card may be declined. If you exceed your credit limit frequently, your lender may take actions including canceling the card, cutting rewards or lowering your limit.
And you'll likely be doing great harm to your credit score. Your credit limits are a key piece of your financial portfolio. Knowing your credit limits — and planning how much of them to use — is also a way you can avoid overspending and going into debt. Paying your bills on time is essential to keeping your credit score strong, and setting up automatic payments is one strategy that can help.
Mixing up the kinds of credit you have, paying attention to the average age of your accounts a long record of responsible credit usage is a good thing , and spacing out your credit applications are good ways to keep your credit healthy.
