  Hi there.

  There is no reasonable limit to the number of users you can invite. You can find out more about inviting users at https://en.support.wordpress.com/adding-users/
  Just be aware of the access different roles have to your site. Please review the roles at https://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/

  The total number is not limited, however, there is a built-in spammer prevention limit so send out only 10 invitations at one point in time and then wait and manage those before sending out 10 more.

  You are welcome.

  If the person being invited to contribute to your blog does not already have one, he or she will have to register a WordPress.COM username account. Username accounts are required, but registering blogs under them is not required. The invitees who lack username accounts select the “username only” option here: https://signup.wordpress.com/signup/?user=1

  Note that you would have to log out and clear your browser cache https://en.support.wordpress.com/browser-issues/#clearing-your-browser-cache and cookies https://en.support.wordpress.com/browser-issues/#clearing-wordpress-com-cookies to witness the process as the invitees without accounts would experience it.

  Upon receipt of the invitation the invitee will need to click the “Accept Invitation” button in the invitation email. If the invitee is logged into their WordPress.com username account, he or she will be taken directly to your blog. If not, he or she will be taken to the log-in screen, where he or she can either log in, or can register a new WordPress.COM user account.

  Note that invitees who do create a new WordPress.com account at that point will still need to return to the invitation email and click the “Accept Invitation” button after doing so.
