Each activated subdomain occupies one domain slot, just like a root domain. This article explains what that means for your plan and how to manage slot usage across subdomains.
From a billing perspective, DMARCeye treats every monitored domain the same way — root domain or subdomain. Once you activate a subdomain, it occupies one slot in your account and counts toward your plan limit.Whether the subdomain has its own DMARC policy or inherits one from its parent domain makes no difference to slot consumption. The slot is tied to monitoring activity, not to DNS configuration.
Subdomains that DMARCeye detects automatically from reports are placed in Parked status. A Parked domain does not occupy a slot. You are not charged for a subdomain simply because it was detected — only activation triggers slot usage.This gives you full control: you can review detected subdomains and decide which ones are worth monitoring before committing a slot.
If your root domain sends email across multiple subdomains — for example, separate subdomains for transactional mail, marketing campaigns, or regional operations — each one you choose to monitor will require its own slot.A practical way to plan: look at your Parked subdomains, identify which ones are active senders you want visibility into, and make sure your plan includes enough slots to cover both your root domains and those subdomains.
