What is a credit card eligibility checker?
Our credit card eligibility checker is a quick and easy way to find out how likely you are to be approved for a card with us without affecting your credit score.
If you apply for a credit card and are approved this can have a positive effect on your credit score but being declined can have a negative effect, that’s why for you it may be important to complete an eligibility check first.
When you apply for a credit card we will carry out a full credit check and our decision might affect your credit score. Our eligibility checker gives you an idea of how likely you are to be approved without affecting your score.
