Location caps
per plan.

How many shops each plan covers, and what happens if you try to add one more.

Server-side enforced. The location cap is checked on every "Add location" attempt server-side. There's no way to slip past it from the browser.

Location caps determine how many shops you can run under one nouz subscription. The cap scales with your plan — and exceeding it triggers a one-click upgrade prompt rather than a hard block.

01 How many locations does each plan cover?

  • Starter — 1 location.
  • Growth — 3 locations.
  • Pro — 5 locations.

The cap is on active locations. Archived locations don't count against it.

02 What happens if I try to add a location past the cap?

If you try to add a location that would exceed your cap, nouz shows an upgrade prompt instead of the location form. The prompt links straight to the plan switcher — pick Growth or Pro, complete checkout (60 seconds), the new cap applies immediately, and your add-location flow continues.

03 When should I archive a location?

Archive a location whenever you close a shop — don't delete it. Archiving removes the location from the picker, frees up a slot under your plan cap so you can add a new shop without upgrading, and preserves every revenue and expense entry intact and exportable. Deleting would throw that history away; archiving keeps it. The points below spell out exactly what archiving does.

  • Removes the location from the picker.
  • Frees up a slot under your plan cap (so you can add a new one without upgrading).
  • Preserves historical data — every revenue and expense entry stays intact and exportable.

04 What if I run more than five locations?

If you genuinely operate more than five shops under one business, the standard plans don't cover you. Email support@nouz.co with your situation — we're open to bespoke arrangements for owners running 6+ shops, though most of our customer base fits within Pro.

Counting locations. One shop with multiple cash registers = 1 location. One brand with two streets = 2 locations. See Adding a second location for the full split rule.
