Credit Limit
The maximum amount of credit that a financial institution or other lender will extend to a borrower.
More Details
A credit limit is the maximum amount of money that an individual or entity is allowed to borrow using a credit card or other type of credit. A credit limit is determined by the lender and is based on factors such as credit score, income, and debt level.
Example
If you have a credit card with a $5,000 credit limit, you will not be able to charge more than $5,000 on the card. If you try to make a purchase that exceeds your credit limit, the transaction will be declined.
