# Invite new users
You can invite users to join your organization by sending out email invitations,
or creating reusable invitation links to share.
Prior to inviting users to your organization, it is recommended that administrators:
* Configure [default settings](/help/configure-default-new-user-settings) for
new users.
* Configure the [organization language for automated messages and invitation
emails][org-lang] for your organization.
When you invite users, you can:
* Set the [role](/help/roles-and-permissions) that they will have when
they join.
* Configure which channels they will be added to. The organization's
[default channels](/help/set-default-channels-for-new-users) will be preselected.
Organization administrators can
[configure](/help/restrict-account-creation#change-who-can-send-invitations)
which [roles](/help/roles-and-permissions) have permission to invite users to
the organization. You will only see an **Invite users** menu option if you have
permission to invite users.
## Send email invitations

!!! warn ""
**Note**: As an anti-spam measure, the number of email invitations
you can send in a day is limited on the Zulip Cloud Free plan. If
you hit the limit and need to invite more users, consider creating an
[invitation link](#create-a-reusable-invitation-link) and sharing it
with your users directly, or [contact support](/help/contact-support)
to ask for a higher limit.
{end_tabs}
!!! warn ""
**Warning**: When an account is created by accepting an email
invitation, the user is immediately logged in to their new account.
