We help you complete your transaction

Declined due to insufficient credit limit

The transaction you want to complete exceeds your credit limit:

When you exhaust your MyCard credit limit1, this allows you to continue making purchases using your account balance. As long as you have the 1 or 2 days payment method, depending on what you have chosen, and you have enough balance in your account. 

What do you need to do to continue making purchases? 

If you change the card payment method to 1 or 2 days, you will be able to continue making purchases beyond the credit limit of the card: once you have reached your card limit, you can continue to make purchases up to €3,000 every 1 or 2 days, depending on the payment method you have chosen, provided you have sufficient funds in your linked CaixaBank account to cover your outstanding balance.

How do I change my credit card payment method to 2 days?

1

Log in to CaixaBankNow with your username and password.

2

If you are on the website:
Go to My Cards, go to menu and click "Customise payment method":


If you are on the app:
Go to Cards and tap in "Customise payment method".

3

Choose the frequency with which you want to settle the debt. Choose "Pay in full every 1 day" or "Pay in full every 2 days" to extend your credit limit using your account balance.

4

Confirm the transaction.

5

All done, you have successfully personalized your payment.

Customise your payment method

How does payment every 1 or 2 days method work?

With the payment every 1 or 2 days method, all purchases made with the card are settled the next day of the purchase as long as it has been confirmed by the commerce, or they are settled 48 hours after confirmation (depending on the payment method chosen). You will always see the remaining balance in your account in real time after upcoming payments are charged and the date on which each purchase will be charged. 
Your card's credit limit will be renewed after 1 or 2 days, and once it has been used up, you will be able to extend it up €3,000 every 1 or 2 days, provided you have enough money in your account.

Below, we detail the overview of the account that you will have in CaixaBankNow: 

In which cases can you exceed the card limit up to €3,000?

Remember that you will be able to continue making purchases above the credit limit up to €3,000, provided that you have sufficient funds in your account to cover: 

  • All oustanding payments.
  • The amount of the purchase you want to make. 

EXAMPLE 1

1. Carlos has used up all his credit limit: €200
2. He has €1,000 in his bank account
3. He wants to make a purchase of €800
4. The purchase will be accepted because he has enough balance in his account (if he has more balance in the account, he may have up to €3,000 to continue making purchases)




EXAMPLE 2

1. Carlos has used up all his credit limit: €200
2. He has €1,000 in his bank account
3. He wants to make a purchase of €950
4. He will not be able to complete the purchase, because he would need to have a balance in your account of 1150 = 950 (equivalent to the purchase amount) + 200 (credit limit already used)
