Pre-Approved for Ulta Credit Card at the Register

Hello All,

 

Ulta employees will inform you if you are "pre-approved"at the register!   You will confirm your address, phone number and put in the last 4 of your social security number.  This pretty much describes the process but the Chickie behind the counter was like,  "let's see if it approves you".  Hmm.   I went for it because, I like to take risks sometimes and I really wanted a card for this store.  Now Macy's won't be only cosmetics card!  

 

After approval, I received a slip with my credit limit ($750.00 )and it only mentions Ulta Credit Card with no mention of Mastercard.  The APR was higher than 23%.  I am still excited because it was a win!  My credit score (mostly utilization) has suffered from buying a house, a new car, furnishing the home and sending the kiddies (both) off to college.  So, I was happy to accept!   I also know that Comenity has rewarded me with credilt increases on my other cards from $250 starting limits ( became 2500 in a year) when I was just building to 8K+ starting limits (after closing).   So, I"m looking forward to growing this card too! Cat Happy

Congrats on the approval. I was pre-approved last month as well and accepted (limit $2000 MC). Why I took it, I have no idea, since I don't wear make-up. But, I'm sure my 19-year-old daughter will put it to great use. Maybe I can start trying to be a little cute! Smiley Happy
