It’s possible.  
But I can’t find option **Join different meetings simultaneously on desktop** in my **settings**!!  
How to do that?  
Should I upgrade my account to active multiple zoom meetings at the same time ??

Hey @amribrahim11,

Thank you for reaching out to the Zoom Developer Forum. Please make sure that you meet the prerequisites to join multiple meetings. As you can see, this will require a [Business Plan](https://zoom.us/pricing) or higher:

With that being said, you can create multiple users on your account and each of those users can host meetings simultaneously regardless of the plan that you have.

I hope that helps! As this relates to the Zoom Client itself, and not the [Web SDK](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/sdk/native-sdks/web#zoom-web-sdk), you can also reach out to our [Customer Support Team](https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/requests/new) as they’ll be able to assist you directly.

Thanks,  
Max
