User-level booking limits

Limit how many times you can be booked across all your event types using per-day, per-week, per-month, or per-year caps.

Booking frequency limits on individual event types let you cap how often a specific event can be booked. User-level booking limits go further — they apply a cap across every personal and team event type you host, so you can control your total meeting load in one place.

This setting is found in your General settings, not inside an individual event type. It applies to you as a host across all of your event types.

User-level booking limits are available to members of a Cal.com organization. If you do not see the setting in General, check with your organization admin or review your plan.

When to use it

• You want an overall cap on how many meetings you take per day, week, month, or year.
• You host multiple event types and want a single limit that covers all of them.
• You need to protect focused time without adjusting limits on every event type individually.

How it works

When you enable user-level booking limits, Cal.com checks your total confirmed bookings for the chosen time period before showing a slot as available. If you have already reached your limit, the slot is removed from your booking page so no one can book you.

You can set limits for any combination of these periods:

Period	What it counts
Per day	Total confirmed bookings on a single calendar day
Per week	Total confirmed bookings within a calendar week
Per month	Total confirmed bookings within a calendar month
Per year	Total confirmed bookings within a calendar year

Limits stack — if you set both a daily and a weekly limit, both are enforced. For example, you could allow up to 4 bookings per day but no more than 15 per week.

Higher time-period limits must be greater than or equal to lower ones. For example, your weekly limit cannot be smaller than your daily limit.

How to set it up

1. Open General settings

   Go to Settings > General in your Cal.com dashboard.

2. Enable booking limits

   Find Limit booking frequency and toggle it on.

3. Configure your limits

   Choose one or more time periods (per day, per week, per month, per year) and set the maximum number of bookings for each.

4. Save

   Click Update to apply your changes.

How it differs from event-type booking limits

	User-level booking limits	Event-type booking limits
Scope	All your event types combined	One specific event type
Where to set it	Settings > General	Event type > Limits tab
What it caps	Your total bookings as a host	Bookings for that single event type

Both limits are enforced simultaneously. If an event type allows 10 bookings per day but your user-level limit is 5 per day, you will not receive more than 5 bookings total.
