Your credit limit is based on your credit score. A good credit score is 700 or more. Paying your bills on time, paying more than the minimum due helps to increase your credit score. If you payback what you use on your credit card each month in full you do not get charged interest. Always pay you credit card bill on time and pay more than the minimum monthly due.
