Hi Valerie,
We’re a review and comparison site and we’re not directly affiliated with the lender, so we can’t provide personal advice. However generally, lenders take into consideration things like your income, your expenses and any other debts or cards you hold when assessing your credit card application.
You’re best bet is to reach out to them directly by calling 1300 153 320.
Hope this helps!
