Can I use my Kohls credit card anywhere?

You can request a Kohl's Credit Card credit limit increase online, or by calling customer service at the number on the back of your card. To raise your chances of being approved for a higher credit limit, pay your bill on time for at least six straight months, reduce your outstanding debt, and update the income Capital One has on file.

Impact of a Kohl's Credit Card Credit Limit Increase on Your Credit Score

When you request a Kohl's Credit Card credit limit increase, Capital One will conduct a hard pull of your credit report, which will cause a short-term dip in your credit score. Capital One cannot do a hard pull without your permission, though.

Alternatively, you could be eligible for a Kohl's Credit Card credit limit increase without even requesting one. The Kohl's Credit Card may offer an automatic credit limit increase if Capital One’s regular review of your account shows a history of on-time payments and low debt. An automatic credit limit increase involves a soft pull, which does not affect your credit score.
