The Apple Card will increase your credit limit no more than once every six months, generally. It's typical for credit cards to have a waiting period between increases. Keep in mind that your chances of getting a credit limit increase are best if you've made the last six consecutive payments for the account on time.
How long should I wait for a credit card increase? It's wise to wait at least three months after you open a credit card before you request a credit limit increase. Also, you should put at least six months between credit limit increase requests.
When you request an Apple Card credit limit increase, Marcus by Goldman Sachs will conduct a soft pull of your credit report, which does not affect your credit score. However, some Apple Card credit limit increase requests may involve a hard pull, which will cause a short-term dip in your credit score.
If the credit increase is not automatic and you actively request it, expect your lender to conduct a hard credit inquiry. While this could temporarily lower your score by a few points, likely no more than 10, the effect is generally short-lived.
If you're interested in increasing your credit limit, you can make a request after you've had your Apple Card for as little as four months. Simply call or text, and we'll connect you with an Apple Card Specialist at Goldman Sachs right away.

When you apply for an Apple Card, Goldman Sachs will review your FICO® Score based on the information on your TransUnion credit report.

Credit One Platinum's maximum credit limit is around $2,000, according to customer reviews. Some people report being approved for this amount right away, while others have worked up to it over years of responsible card use. The minimum credit limit for Credit One Platinum is just $300.

The Apple Card credit limit is usually around $2,500 to start, according to forum posts, and some cardholders report limits as high as $20,000. Marcus by Goldman Sachs does not include any specific Apple Card credit limit information in the card's terms, though.
Sometimes you don't have to ask for an increase, as once you have had your card for six or 12 months you might find that your credit limit increases automatically. Credit card issuers will track your account usage and creditworthiness and may increase your credit card limit without you asking.
