Browse credit cards from a variety of issuers to see if there's a better card for you.
How long until eligible for the initial CLI on the PayPal 2% CB MC and how often after the initial one?
Typically, 6 months after approval, then usually 4 months thereafter. Just be mindful of any CLI frequency given SYNCB twitchiness. Meaning, fly below the radar and don't go on a major app spree after obtaining any SYNCB cards.
I've had my Paypal Credit since 11/2019 and have yet to see a CLI.
Of course, that could be because I have been acquiring new credit cards since then (and culling several of my low limit sub-prime cards). However, I refuse to hit the LUV button for another year. Maybe with the my new "learned helplessness", they'll surprise me and give me an increase!
(or maybe my cats will learn to do calculus -- which is slightly more likely in my estimation!)
Good luck!
I was approved Dec of '19 for $6500, got a CLI to $10K in May of '20, and then another to $15K in Oct of '20.
I haven't asked again, and probably won't due to Sync's recent volatility.
