anyone know anything about authorized users?

My girlfriend has a Furniture Row card but doesn't know if she can add me as an authorized user.

Does anyone know if that's possible with that card? It's through Cap 1.

She can't find it anywhere online on her account where she can do that.

my guess would be no, unless it's a Visa/Mastercard/Amex/Discover branded card not many companies will allow AU's from what I've seen. GECRB does but not sure about others.

While I cannot comment on your relationship, I wouldn't take adding someone as an AU lightly.

Well it is a light situation, really.

Card is at $0 balance with 1,200 limit. She's going to request an increase and see if they'll make me an AU.

She's had the card a little over a year and I've helped her out by making her an AU on my Walmart CC.

It just doesn't seem that this card will allow it, though.
