To get a Chase Sapphire Preferred credit limit increase, call Chase at (800) 432-3117 and ask a representative for a higher limit. 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 Chase has on file. Chase will be more likely to increase your credit limit if the revised income clearly shows that you can afford a higher limit.

- Give permission to Chase for a hard pull of your credit, if needed.
- Wait for the representative to tell you if you are eligible for an increase.

Impact of a Chase Sapphire Preferred Credit Limit Increase on Your Credit Score
When you request a Chase Sapphire Preferred credit limit increase, Chase will conduct a hard pull of your credit report, which will cause a short-term dip in your credit score. Chase cannot do a hard pull without your permission, though.
Alternatively, you could be eligible for a Chase Sapphire Preferred credit limit increase without even requesting one. The Chase Sapphire Preferred card may offer an automatic credit limit increase if Chase’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.
