Installed sections before paid slots? You keep them all
If you added sections while every section was free, you keep every one of them at no cost. Your next section costs one slot, not one slot for each section you already have.
Section slots went on sale this week. Slots meter how many sections a store has installed at a time: the free plan covers 8, and each slot you buy adds one more, for good.
That rule had an unfair edge for stores that were here first. If you installed 30 sections while everything was free, you were 22 over the allowance the moment slots existed, and adding a 31st meant buying 23 slots before a single new one would install. You could not even swap one section for another.
What changed
Every store that installed sections before slots existed now holds exactly the capacity it was using. Nothing was removed, nothing was charged, and nothing needs doing on your side.
- You keep every section you have, and they keep updating.
- Your next section costs one slot, the same as for a brand-new store.
- Uninstall a section and its slot frees up for a different one.
If you bought slots in the days between the launch and this change, they were not deducted. They sit on top as extra room.
Where to see it
Open any section in the catalog. The slot readout now shows the capacity you actually hold. A store that was holding 30 reads 30, and the buy panel offers a single slot for $7 when you want one more.
Thank you
If you added sections while everything was free: thank you for being early. You keep every one of them, and only what you add from here costs a slot. If your plan page says otherwise, tell us, the chat at the bottom right reaches us directly.
