Capacity and monthly usage are separate. A full page, session, or product stops accepting new places or orders. Monthly signup allowances are shared across your account. Uncovered standard signups are held for the owner; queues, preorders, and bookings pause new admissions after the account’s one-time grace period. Accepted customers keep their status links. See how usage and grace periods work.
