How can I increase deal-contact association limits in HubSpot?

Hi @kvlschaefer

Can you please tell if there is any possibility of limit increase with Deal-Contact association? We have more than 10000 deals for single contact, so it is difficult to manage them.

Thanks in advance.

Hi @Zuber_B and welcome, we are so glad to have you here!
Thanks for reaching out to the HubSpot Community!
The number of records you can associate per object pair depends on your HubSpot subscription.
I can see on this documentation “HubSpot’s Product & Services Catalog”, under the “CRM Record Association Limits” that:
- Free accounts may create up to 10,000 associations per association type per record (e.g., a maximum of 10,000 contacts per company) ; and
- Paying customers may create up to 100,000 associations per association type per record (e.g., a maximum of 100,000 contacts per company).
There are exceptions (for all editions, paid and free), and for this specific association Deal to contact, I can see that there is a maximum of 10,000 associated deals per contact.
Let’s consult out Top Experts: Hi @Anton, @sylvain_tirreau and @TomM2 can you think of a workaround to help @Zuber_B, please?
Thanks so much and have a lovely day!

Hi @Zuber_B ,

The limit is absolute and cannot be changed.

You can potentially create a custom object if you have an Enterprise Hub and store your archived deals there.

Given that 1 deal = 1 sales decision, how do you reach this limit? I’m asking to see if you could renegotiate your data model and workflows.

For example, you could organize your deals by month, so you have 12 deals per month, no more, and you’d reach the limit in over 800 years :). But it all depends on your needs (commerce first, products first, etc.). Alternatively, you can also use HubSpot’s other sales tools (Order/Payment/Invoice/Subscription, etc.).

You should tell us more about the need that makes you reach the ceiling so quickly…

Thanks @sylvain_tirreau for the explanation. Let me see the alternatives internally.

Is there any plan to increase, on any subscription level, the limitation of Deals to Contact or Deals to Company? Those increases would be ideal for our business, where the increase in Contacts to Company made no significant difference of any kind. We’re not Amazon, but we do have loyal customers that have been with us for over a decade and their order history well excedes the 10K cap on Deal to anything limitation. Would LOVE to see that expanded.
