Changing the limit on a card

You can set a credit limit on a card when you initially create a card. To change the limit after a card has been created, use the PATCH /cards/{card_id} operation and provide the credit_limit parameter as shown in the table below.

🚧
Note
The sum of all supplementary card credit limits must be less than the parent card limit.

Parameter	Type	Description
`credit_limit` ^required	string	New credit limit for the card. Decimal format with two decimal places, for example `3000.00`.

An example of a request to change the credit limit for a card is shown below.
