# How to limit my time slot to only a certain amount of people for a specific service

{% hint style="warning" %}
**This is a Premium feature of Cowlendar.** You need to upgrade your plan if you want to use this feature and you are a free user of Cowlendar.
{% endhint %}

In Cowlendar when we refer to limits we are referring to the maximum amount of people that can book a specific time slot and/or day.

{% hint style="info" %}
1/2

This is perfect if each of your services has a unique limit. BUT very important to know that if you apply the limit to each service it will not sync with each other. Meaning if someone books Service A for 1pm then Service B will still have the same amount of slots for 1pm
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
2/2

BUT there is a workaround to this! If you want to group a bunch of services together into a "group" then you can create a "pseudo teammate" and add all of those services you want grouped together into this teammate. This way the limit between all of those services syncs together.
