How do I increase my Capital One Venture credit limit?

You can increase your Capital One Venture Rewards Credit Card credit limit by making a request online, through the Capital One mobile app, or by calling customer service at the number on the back of your card. Alternatively, you may also get a Capital One Venture credit limit increase without asking, if your account is in good standing.

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. Capital One will be more likely to increase your credit limit if the revised income clearly shows that you can afford a higher limit.

Impact of a Capital One Venture Credit Limit Increase on Your Credit Score

Generally, when you request a Capital One Venture credit limit increase, Capital One will conduct a soft pull of your credit report, which does not affect your credit score. However, some Capital One Venture credit limit increase requests may involve a hard pull, which will cause a short-term dip in your credit score. Capital One cannot do a hard pull without your permission.

Alternatively, you could be eligible for a Capital One Venture credit limit increase without even requesting one. The Capital One Venture 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.
