Verify Adobe Acrobat E-Signature Transaction Limits

Understand the standard e-signature allowance for individual Acrobat DC plans and check your specific account limits.

Under the standard terms for an individual Acrobat DC or Acrobat Professional plan that includes the Adobe Sign service, users are typically allowed up to 150 send transactions per year.

A 'transaction' generally refers to sending a document or a set of agreements to one or multiple recipients for their electronic signature. Exceeding this limit may require upgrading to a volume-based business or enterprise plan.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens if I exceed my Adobe Acrobat e-signature limit?

If you exceed the 150 transactions per year limit on an individual plan, Adobe may restrict your ability to send further documents for signature until your annual term resets, or they may prompt you to upgrade to a higher-volume business or enterprise plan.

Does receiving and signing a document count towards my Adobe limit?

No, the transaction limit only applies when you are the one initiating and sending a document for others to sign. Receiving and signing a document sent by someone else does not consume your send allowance.

Can I buy additional e-signature transactions for my individual Acrobat plan?

Individual Acrobat plans typically do not offer an add-on for extra signature transactions. If you require a higher volume of e-signatures, you will generally need to switch to an Adobe Acrobat Sign enterprise or team plan that supports scalable transaction volumes.
