    Yes, a credit card bill can be paid through net banking. The main advantage of net banking is that once a user has his/her credit account linked to their savings account, this process of clearing a bill becomes very easy. 

    Users of credit cards can change their linked accounts in future at any time they prefer and even prevent a specific bill payment should they choose to.

    The steps are explained chronologically below –

    1. Users should log in to the official payment page of their credit card issuer.
    2. Once all account details are put in, they can access their mini statement. Every user should view this mini statement in detail to check if there are any mistakes or incident of fraud.
    3. After checking all details pertaining to their transactions over the last month, credit card users can proceed to link their account. It is vital to note that while checking their mini statement is not strictly a mandatory step, this ensures the safety of a user’s credit account.
    4. Now the user must access his/her account from the official web portal of their financial institution where they have their savings account.
    5. After logging in their personal savings account, users should register their credit card to this account.
    6. After the credit card is registered, users can simply select the card and complete the payment.

    Customers generally have the option to pay their minimum amount or otherwise, though it is advisable to clear the whole amount at once.

    Once the amount is entered by the customer, an OTP is sent for confirmation. After the OTP is entered, the credit card bill is cleared instantaneously from the savings account of the user.

    A credit card limit is the maximum amount of funds that you can purchase using your credit card. Every time you make a purchase, this amount is added to your credit card balance. To figure out how much more amount you can spend, subtract the credit balance from your credit limit. When you pay off the credit bill, your credit balance again is reduced.

    The higher the credit limit is, the more funds you have to utilise for transactions or purchases. This credit limit is in the absolute discretion of the card issuer whose credit card you hold. If you want to increase credit card limit, you should keep the following things in mind –

    • Lenders mostly check your payment history and your credit score. A healthy credit score of 750 and above can further help.
    • Another factor, on which your credit limit depends, is your income. Higher income is considered as a higher repayment capability.
    • Your credit utilisation ratio must be below 60% of your total credit balance at all times. Doing so helps financers and credit bureaus alike to consider you as a creditworthy and financial responsible individual.

    Before raising a request to increase credit card limit, make sure that –

    • The account of your credit card is open and active for the last 3 months.
    • Your credit card is not a secured one.
    • You haven’t already requested for a credit limit increase or decrease within the past 6 months.

    To sum it up, a credit card limit keeps a check on how much you can spend. Having a higher credit limit gives you the liberty to pay more but can land you in massive debt as well. It helps you maintain a good credit score as well.

    If you want to increase credit card limit, you can wait for issuer to automatically offer the same without applying for it. Responsible card usage will compel the financer to offer you a larger amount of credit to utilise with card.
