Your Amazon Credit Card approval odds are good if you have a credit score of 700+, which is considered good credit. Approval odds for the Amazon Credit Card will also be influenced by your annual income and existing debts. Applicants will need to be 18+ years old with a U.S. mailing address and an SSN or ITIN, as well.
What You Need for Good Amazon Credit Card Approval Odds
- Good credit or better
- Enough income to pay credit card bills
- Low debt relative to income
- Low housing costs relative to income
- U.S. mailing address
- Age of 18+
- Social Security Number or Individual Taxpayer Identification Number
Keep in mind that many of these are guidelines rather than requirements. For example, you may have a low annual income but no debts and still get approved.
To get a better sense of your approval odds before applying for the Amazon Credit Card, you can check to see if you’re pre-qualified for any offers on the Chase website. Pre-qualifying does not guarantee approval, but it does indicate that you have pretty good odds of getting approved for certain cards, and it won’t affect your credit score.

First, the Amazon Prime Rewards Visa Signature card is a Chase Bank credit card. Therefore, regardless of your credit; if you have acquired 5 new accounts in a 24 month period, you will be denied for this card. Research Chase Bank 5 new cards 24 month period rule

I vaguely remember reading someplace that they dont count co branded cards but i could be wrong. If i am wrong i will be denied an Amazon credit card. I didn't know, failed to look at who the card is co branded with. Im aware of the Chase policy tho.

Not necessarily true. I purchased my house 14 mths ago. Since then I have acquired 9 card. I have a 12% utilization, hight score high 700's, no late payments. Was approved on the spot 5k credit limit. So your theory is incorrect.

I was approved for the Amazon Visa Signature with more than 5 opened accounts in 24 months. The lowest limit they will give out is 500 and it is hard to increase from that limit. Chase is the lowest limit card I have and kept it open, so far.

They gave me a 5,000 limit then 3 months later took it up to 9,100

@yradatus1: length of credit history is a biggie as far as approvals go. I have a 2.4 year credit history which is stellar in all scoring areas. I will be somewhat out of the doldrums next year

In a way the low CL can be of some good because for me, i wouldn't want to spend over 30% on it thus eliminating impulsive buying on my part. If something costs more i would definitely give more attention to my budget.
