Adobe Sign applies a limit to the number of recipients per transaction. This limit is entirely dependent on the type of subscription you hold. Higher-tier enterprise plans typically allow for a significantly larger number of signers compared to individual or small business plans.
Log in to your Adobe account and navigate to your account settings or billing section to confirm whether you have an Individual, Teams, or Enterprise subscription.
Go to the official Adobe Support website and search for the "Classic Transaction Limits" help document.
Scroll through the documentation table to find your subscription type and view the maximum number of recipients allowed per signature transaction.

Frequently Asked Questions
What happens if I exceed the recipient limit in Adobe Sign?
If you attempt to add more signers than your current subscription plan allows, the system will display an error message and prevent you from sending the document until you reduce the recipient count.
Can I increase the e-signature recipient limit on my account?
To increase your transaction and recipient limits, you typically need to upgrade your current Adobe Sign subscription plan to a higher tier, such as moving from an Individual plan to a Teams or Enterprise plan.
Does the recipient limit apply to users who only receive a CC copy?
Yes, depending on your plan, anyone added to the transaction loop, including signers, approvers, and individuals only receiving a copy (CC), usually counts towards the total transaction recipient limit.
