The amount of your first credit card limit will depend on the type of card you receive. Credit card companies don’t disclose starting credit limits, but for a store retail card such as the Amazon store card, cardholders report a starting credit limit of around $600. If it’s a major Visa or Mastercard, you may be approved for a slightly higher credit limit. Capital One Quicksilver cardholders report an average starting credit limit of up to $1,000.

To land a first credit limit above the $1,200 average, you’ll need that established credit history with no late or missed payments. You might land a higher credit limit if you’re listed as an authorized user on a card with a stellar credit history.

If you manage the card responsibly, you may be eligible for a secured credit card with a higher credit limit. In addition, your security deposit is refunded in full, if you close the account in good standing.
