If NexLev MCP says you're on the Free plan even though you've paid, start with [NexLev MCP Shows the Free Plan](/docs/troubleshooting/account-access/mcp-shows-free-plan).

## Quota is lower than expected

**You see:** your NexLev MCP limits are lower than you expected for your plan.

**Why:** each plan maps to one of three MCP quota tiers. Only an active or trialing subscription counts.

| Your plan                     | MCP quota tier |
| ----------------------------- | -------------- |
| Pro                           | `pro`          |
| Premium or Lite               | `lite`         |
| Niche Finder Lifetime         | `lite`         |
| n8n Pro only, or no paid plan | `free`         |

Premium uses the same `lite` limits as Lite, and the n8n Pro package on its own gets the `free` MCP tier.

**Fix:** check the per-tool limits for your tier under [Rate Limits](/docs/mcp/quickstart#rate-limits) in the MCP Quickstart. If you're on Pro but getting `lite` or `free` limits, you're probably connected with a different account. See [NexLev MCP Shows the Free Plan](/docs/troubleshooting/account-access/mcp-shows-free-plan).
