Editorial and user-generated content is not provided, reviewed or endorsed by the issuer of this offer. Please keep in mind that it is not a financial institution’s responsibility to ensure all posts and questions are answered. In addition, WalletHub independently collected information for some of the cards on this page.
The starting credit limit for the Williams Sonoma Credit Card is at least $3,000. This means that you're guaranteed at least a $3,000 credit line upon approval, though you could get more, depending on your creditworthiness. If you don't qualify for the Williams Sonoma Credit Card, you'll be considered for the Williams Sonoma Store Card, which guarantees a starting credit limit of $500.
If the credit limit that you get approved for does not meet your expectations, then you can request a credit limit increase by calling the issuer's customer service at (844) 217-6410. It's good to wait at least 6 months before asking for a credit line increase, though. If you request a limit increase sooner than that, it's likely that it will get denied.

I am on hold now for 50 min trying to get my birthday reward that was not automatically sent for the 2nd year in a row. I called last week and the rep said give it a couple more days - it was already the 15th of my birthday month. I waited a week and the next rep said same thing. I told her that’s what they told me a week ago and she offered me a credit of $25. She needed a supervisor to assist sending the credit and no supervisor assisted. I am now on hold for supervisor. It’s not really a reward if you have to work this hard for it. My advice is to use a different reward card (NOt through Capital One) if you want the reward to work without this much work. The reps are nice but have no authority to assist so the system doesn’t work. Williams Sonoma should not be using this bank - it has their name on it so they should be managing this vendor. I do NOT recommend this card or Capitol One. On hold now for an hour and NO supervisor is assisting. ☹️

We have several credit cards...SEVERAL different companies to deal with. This is the ABSOLUTE WORST card to have. We are business owners, so we juggle financial purchases on several different cards. We have had Capital One cards in the past so we figured, what the heck: Another card and benefits wouldn't hurt, and we needed some new kitchen supplies for our business (we're private chefs). When I went to pay the first bill, it was one minute late, literally, the time stamp was 8:01pm. When I called the next day to try to get that late fee (that was assessed to the account for being one minute late) waived, stating that they could see the time stamp of the payment, they told me "Unfortunately because it's a new account there is no option for us to waive this for you". If you are even 1 minute late in paying your bill (that is due 8pm on the due date), you will be charged a late fee and no-one can help remove it. I KNOW FOR A FACT they can assist with these issues, but they refused to. Capital One has been a staple in our home/business for over 10 years. I will NEVER use this card EVER again!!!! I will pay it off (as slowly as I can because it's interest free) and will NEVER EVER touch it again. I will also never recommend this card to anyone. I will continue to shop at WS because it's not their problem...There are BETTER cards out there that offer you way better perks. Don't fall for this trap. Pass on the Capital One WS card.

Applied to get the 20% off deal that WS is/was running. They weren't able to approve me in time for the deal despite doing an instant credit check (score was >700). I called several times and they eventually told me it would take 7-10 business days to get a letter to learn more. Canceled my application. I guess this is why WS is changing the credit card provider.

William Sonoma gives you $25 every time you have a birthday. To spend online or in the store. They also send you coupons for 20% off and special events.

The card is easy to get but high apr, made for trophy wives to use, thankfully the fifth wife is more responsible with money, stays in a sock drawer. Update, when Capital one took over the account, I closed the account, bad history with capital one over 3 decades, don't do any business with them.

DO NOT BUY I opened a card to buy a large purchase ($250). The rewards are not remotely worth it and they try everything to NOT give you a discount or free shipping. I was charged $27 due to a small banking error. I immediately rectified it but was told that the fee could not be waived despite paying early and in full. I spoke to customer service about this issue and they refused to rectify it despite this being something that cost them no money. I even tried to see if they would reduce the fee. Nothing. The product I bought was definitely not worth the amount of time money and energy I have spent on this issue. Trust me, this discount for this card is no where near worth it. I will no longer be shopping here, and I can assure you, I will be telling this to every single person I personally know in the professional/televised cooking world. BTW They charge you $9 by the way to pay over the phone. This review above is counter to every other review I have come across and clearly has been created to promote the card and is unbiased.

The Williams Sonoma Credit Card is a pretty decent card if you have good credit. It's a rewards card with my favorite, no annual fee. You start out with 2,500 points and you can earn 1-3 points on the dollar. You earn 1 point everywhere except Williams Sonoma, where you earn 3 points per dollar. The rewards are pretty good too. $25 Gift Cards or a statement credit is a reward worth working toward. Furthermore, they're very competitive by offering free shipping to their cardholders as well as culinary experiences around the world. Interest is competitive at 13.74% - 21.74%. If you shop at Williams Sonoma a lot, it's definitely worth getting.
