1. What is the Chase Credit Card Limit Calculator?

The Chase Credit Card Limit Calculator estimates your potential credit limit based on your credit score and income. This tool helps you understand what credit limit you might qualify for with Chase credit cards.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses Chase's credit evaluation formula:

Where:

• \( Credit Score \) — Your FICO credit score (300-850)
• \( Factor \) — Multiplier based on creditworthiness
• \( Income \) — Your annual income in USD
• \( Percentage \) — Percentage of income considered for credit limit

Explanation: The equation combines both your creditworthiness (represented by credit score) and your ability to pay (represented by income) to determine an appropriate credit limit.
