# Seats and concurrency

## Overview <a href="#overview" id="overview"></a>

**Seats** correspond to user licenses, and represent the number of active user accounts that your Breakroom World can accommodate. In addition to the *persistent seats* included with your Breakroom subscription, you can add *temporary seats* to your account through the use of [Daily Passes](#daily-passes).

**Concurrency** refers to the number of users who can log in simultaneously. Please note that your Breakroom account's concurrency cap may be different than your total seat count.

## Daily Passes

Daily Passes are temporary seats that permit individual users to access your World for 24 hours, giving you the ability to scale your seat count to meet increased user demand. You can use Daily Passes to invite delegates to a conference, sell tickets to a professional or artistic event, or allow contractors to access your virtual workspace. The possibilities are endless.

### Usage details

* Daily Passes are activated when your Breakroom account has no open [persistent seats](#overview) and a [Guest](https://docs.breakroom.tech/creating-and-managing-user-accounts/world-level-user-permissions#guest) logs in.
* Once activated, a Daily Pass will lock to a single user account and will be deducted from your pool of available Daily Passes.
* Daily Passes expire 24 hours after activation.
* Unused Daily Passes will roll over month-to-month until your Breakroom subscription is cancelled or expires.
