    Yes there is - there is a limit of 32 referrals. Note as well that you dont get space for inviting, you get space for the invitee accepting and joining Dropbox using a unique computer

Good afternoon! My tariff is basic, the volume is 2.75 GB. My friend created a free account and he has a volume of 5 GB (i.e. basic). Can I increase my storage capacity to 5 GB?

Hi Aleksj, Certainly, you can increase your storage in Dropbox through both free and paid plans.

 

To earn free storage space for free up to 18 GB, you can complete the Dropbox getting started checklist or refer your friends, family, and coworkers.

 

But if you want more space you can pay to upgrade to Dropbox Plus to get 2 TB of storage space or Dropbox Professional to get 3 TB of storage space. If you have a Plus or Professional account and work with two or more colleagues, you may want to consider upgrading to a Dropbox team account, which starts at 5 TB of storage space.

 

Please feel free to ask the community if you need further clarification on any of these free or paid plans
