# Limits on statistics

> Review PlayFab Statistics service limits including maximum definitions per title, values per player, and other bounds that shape progression design.

The purpose of this guide is to detail the limits that are enforced when creating, updating, and reading from your statistics on the Statistic service.

* Caller: This type of limit is enforced on the caller of the API. This constraint could be either a player or a title.
* Target: This type of limit is enforced on the target of the API, in our specific case an entity.

The following table defines the limits for the various APIs available in the Statistics service. If an API isn't explicitly listed here, the default behavior is going to be applied.

| API                        | Limit                                                        | Caller         | Target entity                                                           |
