Job bubble-company-seat-limit-signup · revised 9 October 2026
Stop a Bubble signup from adding users beyond a seat limit
On a Bubble development copy, the third user can register and the fourth cannot create an account; a no-code signup follows the agreed default path.
You might be seeing
- The fourth account appears in the company database despite a warning popup
- The third seat is wrongly blocked or can still navigate to the app
No passwords, keys, card details or admin invites needed to start.
What usually happened
A client-side Bubble signup popup checks the seat limit but the creation workflow continues or checks the wrong count, so unauthorised accounts appear and paid capacity is not enforced.
Who it’s for: Owner of a Bubble B2B app that sells company seats.
Usually starts when: A company pays for three seats but a fourth person can still register with the company code.
The result: On a Bubble development copy, the third user can register and the fourth cannot create an account; a no-code signup follows the agreed default path.

Checks you can run yourself
Count test accounts
On the development copy, sign up dummy users three and four and inspect the company user list.
Look for: If user four exists despite a popup, the warning is not a database guard.
What you get
- Named Bubble workflow and privacy-rule changes
- Owner-readable before/after signup matrix and revert steps
Included
- Fix company-code signup and seat-count check for one company plan
- Test seats two, three and four, concurrent attempts for the last seat, and invalid and empty codes on a development copy
Not included
- A new billing system or changing plan prices
- Migrating or deleting existing production users
- An enterprise permission audit
- Changing the number of plans or company hierarchy
How we know it’s done
Agreed with you before work starts. Each check produces evidence you keep.
For a three-seat dummy company user three joins, while user four receives a warning and no account is created
Evidence: Screenshots of popup, company user count and user search
Invalid company code creates no company user; blank code follows the owner-approved standalone signup path
Evidence: Five-case signup matrix with database counts
With one seat remaining, two simultaneous dummy signup requests create exactly one company member; repeat at the full limit and create none. If the platform cannot enforce this safely, stop without calling it fixed.
Evidence: Timestamped request results and company/member counts before and after both concurrent attempts.
Sign-off. You inspect the named test result and sign off before payment. Your authorised account holder performs and verifies any live change.
If it fails. If the agreed test fails, you do not pay for this fixed scope. We hand over the findings and agree whether to stop or re-quote; no surprise work.
When it fits, and when we stop
It fits when
- Owner can reproduce the overflow with dummy company users
- A development Bubble version and an owner-approved copy of seat rules exist
We stop and tell you if
- Multiple concurrent signup requests can bypass the planned check and no safe server-side enforcement exists within scope
- Company plans or seat ownership rules have not been decided
What could go wrong
Keep the previous code or configuration on a named test copy. The handover lists every change and its reverse; live database changes or external effects require a separate owner-approved plan.
Scroll the table sideways to read it all.
| Risk | How we handle it |
|---|---|
| UI check is bypassed by parallel signups | Test concurrent signups; if safe atomic enforcement is unavailable, stop instead of claiming a fix. |
| Editing production signup blocks real customers | Work in Bubble development and have the owner deploy only after approval. |
An independent reviewer checks the specific data, payment and permission risks, the redacted test result and whether the owner can safely reverse the change.
How we deliver
We arrange the work and independent review, then show you the result against the agreed checks. You keep authority over your systems.
- Trace signup workflow and the seat count before any user creation
- Put the seat rule at a server-enforced or safely atomic creation boundary, including concurrent attempts
- Test dummy seat limits, invalid/blank codes and route redirects; independent permission review
- Hand over the reviewed change, evidence and reversal steps; the owner controls the live switch.
This is a one-off job, not emergency cover or a subscription. We confirm eligibility, the total price, a start window and a delivery date before you accept. Work starts only after agreed inputs, secure access, any licences and necessary permissions are in place. Hosting, platform and supplier charges are excluded unless the written quote includes them. No charge or booking is created by an enquiry.
Need to keep it working?
If seat rules change regularly, discuss a recurring signup and access regression check. Billing ownership and incident response would need a separate agreement.
Ongoing work is separately scoped and quoted: no monitoring, response-time guarantee or automatic subscription is included in this job.
Explore an ongoing engineering lane, or mention the responsibility you need in your enquiry.
What you can check
This is a new service. We have not delivered this job for a client yet.
Other ways to get this done
- Ask the original platform or app vendor whether its support can fix this under your existing plan.
- If someone already maintains this system for you, ask them to test this exact failure on a copy first.
Questions
Is the warning popup enough?
No. We verify no fourth user row exists after the attempt.
Will you delete accounts already over the limit?
No. Historic accounts need the owner’s separate decision.
Start with an email
Send us
- Screenshots of signup and company-code popup with names removed
- Expected counts for three-seat company and invalid/blank codes
Later, once you agree
- Owner-provided development editor permission
- Dummy company and four disposable user accounts
- A company-controlled secure handoff agreed before access: no live passwords, keys, private code or customer records by ordinary email.
You keep the live service, account, production keys and customer records. Agents work only on an authorised copy with synthetic data and a company-controlled handoff; a person owns Synthetic Industry and remains accountable. Your authorised account holder approves and carries out the live change.
