Apple card likes heavy use. I'd say in the 30-50% CL usage/mo - obviously without a carried balance. CLI can be requested every 3 months (90 days) and yes, it's a soft pull. They are generally generous (as mentioned above) as long as you are making good use of your limit. Also, there's been many posts pointing out they like you using the card for Apple purchases and that it can influence CLI.
Good luck!
Requesting a CLI for the Apple card couldn't be easier. Open your wallet app > Apple Card > hit the ... on the top
You should see something like "contact" or something similar. You're looking for the imessage link - (Don't have my phone handy at the moment, if you can't find it - I'll update this tomorrow). You should be in imessage - type in "Credit Limit Increase" - just that, and you should get a response asking for your income. Respond and you'll get a reply in a few seconds. Super easy, but can only be done every 90 days.
I have no first hand knowledge with regards to odds based on using the card for Apple purchases. I'm only passing that on based on posts I've read over the last several months. My personal experiance was throwing around 50-75% CL spend on the card during the first three months and receiving a CLI doubling my limit. I don't use my Apple card all that much (Mainly use my Amex cards) - although I did just buy an iPhone 13 Pro Max 512GB, using it. I'll be at my next 90 days next month, so we'll see if that has an impact. (My usage has been fairly low the previous couple months)
Whatever happens, let is know how it turns out. More data points are always welcome.
@Red1Blue Just because it's easier to get doesn't mean is not a prime card; Capital one is also a prime lender. As a matter of fact apple card is superior than my citi dc. Most businesses in my area accept apple pay which is very convenient for me when switching cards.
