Monthly Label Limits
Some plans include a monthly cap on how many shipping labels you can buy. This article explains how the limit works and where to see your usage.
How the limit works
Your plan may set a number of labels you can purchase each calendar month. Every label you buy — through Iraca, your own carrier account, or a marketplace like Amazon, Walmart, or Etsy — counts toward that month's total. The count resets on the first of each month.
If your plan has no cap, there's nothing to track and nothing to see — buying labels is unlimited.
A cap is not the same thing as the labels your plan includes at postage only, or a label block: those decide whether a label carries Iraca's fee, never whether you can buy it. See Buying a Shipping Label.
Seeing your usage
When your plan sets a limit, the Shipping dashboard shows a Labels used this month indicator with a progress bar — for example, 18 / 50. It's hidden entirely on unlimited plans.
When you reach the limit
Once you've used your monthly allowance, label purchases are blocked with a message telling you how many you've used:
You have used 50 of your 50 monthly labels. Upgrade your plan to purchase more.
To keep shipping, upgrade your plan from the Billing page. Your new allowance applies right away, and the counter still resets at the start of next month.
