Flipbook limits
Each plan allows a set number of flipbooks.
| Plan | Flipbooks |
|---|---|
| Free | 2 |
| Basic | 15 |
| Pro | Unlimited |
What counts
Section titled “What counts”- Every flipbook you’ve created counts, whether it’s a PDF, image or product catalog flipbook.
- Hidden flipbooks count. A flipbook with Visible to customers turned off still uses a slot.
- Deleted flipbooks don’t count. Deleting a flipbook frees its slot right away.
When you reach the limit
Section titled “When you reach the limit”When you click Create flipbook, the app takes you back to the Flipbooks page and shows a banner like this:
- “You’ve used 2 of 2 flipbooks on the Free plan.”
- “Your existing flipbooks keep working and stay editable.”
To make room, click Upgrade in the banner to open Shopify’s plan page, or delete a flipbook you no longer need. See Manage your flipbooks.
If you don’t have a plan
Section titled “If you don’t have a plan”Without a plan you can’t create flipbooks, and the banner reads:
- “Choose a plan to create flipbooks.”
- “It takes a moment, and there is a free plan.”
Click View plans to choose one. See Choose a plan.
After a downgrade
Section titled “After a downgrade”If you move to a plan with a lower limit, you keep every flipbook. You can still view, edit, hide and delete them, and they keep showing on your store. You just can’t create a new one until you’re under the new limit.
For example, if you have 10 flipbooks on Basic and move to Free, which allows 2, you can create a new one once you’re down to 1 flipbook.
On Free, the 25-page limit also applies to your PDF and image flipbooks.
Creating two at once
Section titled “Creating two at once”If you have one slot left and create two flipbooks at the same time, for example in two browser tabs, the second one shows “That would be one flipbook more than your plan allows, so nothing was created.” Only the first flipbook is created.
If Create flipbook keeps sending you back to the list, see Can’t create a flipbook.
