## Common causes

- You're trying to make a change to a subscription that results in an immediate charge, but your account has made too many immediate charges for this subscription in the last 24 hours.

## Common solutions

- Wait 24 hours before making another change to this subscription which results in an immediate charge.
- Retry the request with a `proration_billing_mode` of `prorated_next_billing_period`, `full_next_billing_period` to charge the customer on renewal, if compatible with the change you're making.
- Retry the request with a `proration_billing_mode` of `do_not_bill` to avoid charging the customer, if compatible with the change you're making.
- [Contact the Paddle Seller Support team](mailto:sellers@paddle.com) if you're not sure why you're being limited, or you're expecting a spike in traffic. Include the `request_id` with your message, if you received one.
