You can use the table’s sort function to compare these cards based on bonus points, rewards points per $ spent, purchase rate, and annual fee. You can press the “More info” link to be redirected to our review page and learn more about the card’s key details, features, fees as well as the pros and cons of using the card. When you are ready, you may then click on the “Go to site” button and you will be redirected to the lender’s website where you can proceed with the application or get in touch with their representatives for further inquiries you may have.

Hi Lucy,
Thanks for your question!
The $500 amount is the lowest credit card limit that you can request. It is possible to apply for a higher credit card limit but not a lower one than this figure.
I hope this has helped!
Cheers,
Jonathan
