Credit card companies have up to 30 days to respond to your application.
After you applied for a credit card you should receive so called approval letter with the status of your credit card application. The time of approval depends on credit card issuer and usually it takes around 5 – 7 business days.
This approval letter informs you whether you are approved or not for a desired credit card. If approved, the issuer tells you the estimated time it will take for your card to arrive.

Can’t wait anymore? Try to contact a customer service department of your credit card issuer – they are always at your disposal.
