# Kafka Cluster Creation Limits
Hello, cloud enthusiasts! At Bitnimbus.io, we are committed to ensuring our customers have a delightful experience while maintaining the security and integrity of our platform. One way we achieve this is by enforcing certain thresholds on user accounts to deter fraud. We hope this guide helps explain those limits. Let’s dive in!
## Account Plans and Cluster Tiers Matrix
To help you choose the account type that best fits your needs, we’ve outlined the key features and limitations of each type in the matrix below. For example, as a user of an account categorized as Premium, you may create one micro cluster, six Small clusters, and one Medium cluster.
| | | | |
|---|
| Starter | Pro | Premium | Enterprise |
| Cluster Type |
|
|
|
|
| Micro | 1 | 8 | 8 | 8 |
| Small | 0 | 4 | 6 | 8 |
| Medium | 0 | 0 | 1 | 2 |
| Large | 0 | 0 | Contact Us | Contact Us |
## Note
1. When you sign up, your account is classified as Starter, which is then upgraded to Pro automatically as soon as you add a valid payment method.
2. At any point after Pro, you can request a bump to your account limits by contacting us.
3. Accounts of plan type Premium and beyond can contact us to obtain grants for the Large cluster type.
4. If a payment on your account is unsuccessful, your account may be temporarily suspended, and you will not be able to create new clusters during this time. We will make sure to notify you if this occurs.
Remember, no matter which plan you choose, Bitnimbus.io is here to ensure your Kafka experience is as smooth as a cumulus cloud and as powerful as a thunderstorm.
