# Credit and action usage limits

> Set usage limits to make sure your users don't exceed hard limits

<Info>Usage Limits are separate to Usage Alerts, which only send email notifications when your usage reaches a specified limit. You can learn more about Usage Alerts [here](/admin/project-management/usage-alerts).</Info>

<Note>Usage limits are set per calendar month and reset at the beginning of each month.</Note>

Usage limits allow you to hard stop usage when you reach a specified limit. These limits will also send an email notification to the user(s) you've added so that they're notified that your organization has hit the limit.

Usage limits are a great way to make sure your users don't go over your Credits and Actions available on your current plan, and enable you to have more control over your usage.

## How do I set up usage limits?
