A message saying, "The maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iPhone" or, "This iPhone has been used to create too many new Apple IDs" is discussed in the support document "If you see a Could Not Create Apple ID or Could Not Set Up iCloud message." Click on this link to read it. --> https://support.apple.com/HT210743

This message generally "means that you have exceeded the number of new Apple IDs you can set up with iCloud on a single device in one year." See the recommendations in the link on alternative methods for setting up iCloud accounts, e.g. on a computer, or contact Apple Support if requested:
