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.

The Kohl's Credit Card approval requirement is a credit score of 640 or higher; this means you need at least fair credit to get approved for this card, in most cases. Keep in mind, though, that credit card issuers also consider your credit history, income and existing debt obligations when making approval decisions.… read full answer

It’s a good idea to see if you’re pre-qualified for a Kohl's Credit Card before you apply. Pre-qualification can give you a good idea of your approval odds, and it doesn’t count as a hard pull on your credit.

If you’re thinking about applying for any credit card, it’s never a bad idea to check your latest credit score first. You can check your credit score for free on WalletHub.

It can take up to a few weeks to get the Kohl’s Credit Card.
