About Square Credit Card credit limit increases

Your Square Credit Card credit limit is the maximum amount you can spend at any given time. Square automatically and continuously reviews your account to determine eligibility for higher limits based on factors like your Square sales volume, account history, and card usage patterns.

Factors that impact eligibility for Square Credit Card credit limit increases include, but are not limited to, your current payment processing volume, your customer mix, your Square account history, and your Square Credit Card history. Please be aware that aspects of your repayment history, account default, processing history, failed debits, chargeback history on your Point of Sale account, and changes to your processing behavior may impact your eligibility for credit line adjustments.

Credit limit increases work similarly to Square Loans — they're invite-only offers based on automatic eligibility reviews. You can't manually request or apply for credit limit increases. Note that even with a higher credit limit, individual transactions are still capped at $25,000.
