It can take anywhere from a few seconds to a few weeks to learn if you’ve been approved or declined for a credit card. Most companies have a dedicated phone line, email address or web form where you can check on your status.

When applying for a new card, providers will determine your eligibility based on your credit history. “Credit history” is intentionally vague — there are many components credit card companies will assess, among them:

  • The age of your credit history — or how long you’ve had your current credit cards.
  • How many credit applications you’ve recently submitted.
  • Your payment history, including late and on-time payments, collection actions and judgments against you.
  • Credit utilization — or the ratio of balances you owe versus your limit on each card.
  • How many installment loans, auto loans, credit cards, mortgages and other types of credit you have.

Providers will look at these factors, plus your other outstanding debts, to determine whether you are a good candidate or if you are too risky.

Rejected and not sure why? Many providers’ customer service departments will be honest about why you were not accepted for a new card. Give them a call to find out why, and then work on rebuilding your credit.

      Hello Ellen,

      Thank you for your comment.

      The only way to know your credit card approval code is to ask the issuing bank for a six-digit authorization code for your transaction. You may reach them at the phone number found on the back of your card.

      Regards,
      Jhezelyn
