I already have Amex Blue Cash. My mother wants one and I get a bonus if she's approved. Her credit is a mess right now due to high utilization and a car loan. I feel like if she gets anything over 2k she's going to max it out within months. I was hoping she'd want Capital One at least it's a $500 limit.
$500.00 I think
I see you have the Discover it card. You can refer your mom to apply for that card and receive a $50 statement credit. The minimum credit limit on the Discover it is $300 so she may have a better chance at that card anyways.

So why not go all in and make her an authorized user on your $13K card?
While it's none of my business and not what you're really asking about here, it sounds to me like the last thing she needs is another CC. By your own admission you said she'll probably max it out. Obtaining another card would not be a healthy credit decision here.
