Each HubSpot account has a monthly email send limit that determines how many emails you can send through certain HubSpot tools each month. The email types that count toward this limit depend on how the email is sent and your subscription.
For example, if you send one marketing email to 100 contacts, 100 email sends count toward your limit. The monthly email send limit resets at the beginning of each calendar month.
Learn more about the email send limits for your subscription in HubSpot's Product & Services Catalog.
