Hi @taiki.shiino,

Good questions—happy to clarify.

1. You can create/modify/delete up to 100 meetings per user, per day. This limit applies to all Zoom Accounts, regardless of plan. Participants are limited on Basic accounts. You will also be limited to 40 minutes for group meetings. A Pro or higher license would remove this limitation.

2. Basic accounts’ rate limits are not published, but would be closer to the limits for Pro accounts (slightly less)

3. There are no restrictions on starting or joining a basic meeting, but the duration and participant limits would apply.

Let me know if this helps—thanks!
Will

Hello Will,

Thanks for the reply.
Does that mean that 「100 people can participate」?

Participants are limited on Basic accounts.
