Credit limit refers to the maximum amount of credit a financial institution extends to a client through a line of credit as well as the maximum amount a credit card company allows a borrower to spend on a single card.

Each credit card has a credit limit. The limit is the greatest amount of money a person can spend using the card. Spending more than the card's limit can result in a penalty fee.
