Issuer Rules & Policies
PENDINGRules: Eligibility for the Bilt Mastercard requires a good to excellent credit score (typically 670+), sufficient income, and being at least 18 years of age with a valid SSN or ITIN. Applicants should not have recent bankruptcies. A key bonus rule is that an individual is eligible for only one sign-up bonus per Bilt Mastercard account every 15 months. Wells Fargo generally limits new card approvals to one every six months.
Max Cards Per Issuer: 5
Min Spend Interval: 3 months
Cliff Effect Rules: Wells Fargo typically enforces an application velocity rule of no more than one new credit card approval every six months. Some data points also suggest a limit of two new Wells Fargo cards within a 24-month period. These rules apply across all Wells Fargo credit card products, not just the Bilt Mastercard.
