# How Many Gmail Accounts Can You Have

Connect unlimited Gmail accounts to Missive. No restrictions.

There's no official limit to the number of Gmail accounts you can create. However, Google may require phone verification for new accounts, and one phone number can only be linked to a limited number of accounts.

[Missive](https://missiveapp.com) lets you add unlimited Gmail accounts to manage all your email in one place. Whether you have personal accounts, work accounts, or accounts for different projects, you can access them all from Missive's unified inbox.

## Google's account limits

While Google doesn't publish an exact limit, here's what to expect:

* **Phone verification** - Google may ask you to verify new accounts with a phone number
* **Phone number limits** - One phone number can typically verify 4-5 accounts
* **Activity requirements** - Inactive accounts may be deleted after extended periods

## Gmail accounts in Missive

In Missive, you can connect as many Gmail accounts as you need:

* **Personal accounts** - Private accounts visible only to you
* **Shared accounts** - Team email accounts accessible to your organization

Each account type has different pricing:

* **Personal accounts** - All paid plans include 10 personal accounts. During the 30-day trial, each user can connect 2.
* **Shared accounts** - Each user contributes 5 shared accounts to your organization's pool. For example, a 10-user organization can connect 50 shared accounts at no extra charge. Need more? Additional shared accounts are $15/month per 5 accounts. See the [Billing FAQ](/docs/administration/billing-and-plans/faq.md#how-many-shared-accounts-can-i-connect) for details.

## Adding Gmail accounts to Missive

1. Go to **Settings** > **Accounts**
2. Click **Add account**
3. Select **Google**
4. Sign in with your Gmail credentials
5. Grant Missive permission to access your email

Repeat for each Gmail account you want to add.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://missiveapp.com/docs/support/how-many-gmail-accounts-can-i-have.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
