Manage billing groups in an organization
Who can use this feature
Available on the Enterprise plan
Billing groups let you sort people in your organization according to internal budget sources. Each billing group has billing group admins, who can:
- Assign or unassign users from the group
- Manage upgrade requests
- Move people between seat types
Tip: What's the difference between billing groups and workspaces? Billing groups are for accounting and organizing people by cost center. Workspaces are for collaboration and organizing work by departments, product areas, or other categories.
Who can manage billing groups?
Only organization admins and billing group admins can manage billing groups.
- Organization admins can create billing groups and assign billing group admins to each group. They can manage every billing group in the organization.
- Billing group admins manage seats in billing groups where they are an admin.
Note: Someone can be both a workspace admin and a billing group admin. Learn more about the different types of admins in Figma →
Tip: You don't need to pay for someone to be a billing group admin. Admins who don't work in Figma can use a free View seat.

View billing groups in the organization
Billing group admins can only view billing groups they manage.
- From the file browser, click Admin.
- Select the relevant billing group in the sidebar.
Organization admins can view all billing groups in the organization.
- From the file browser, click Admin.
- Select the Billing tab.

Add or remove people from a billing group
People can only belong to one billing group at a time. When someone isn’t part of a billing group, they have the Unassigned label. Any organization admin or billing group admin can move someone who is unassigned into a billing group. You can also remove people from a billing group at any time by unassigning them.
Note: Organization admins receive upgrade notifications and requests for anyone with the Unassigned label. When a person is moved to a billing group, the billing group admins in that group become responsible for managing that person’s paid status.
To move someone between billing groups, you’ll need to be an organization admin or a billing group admin in both groups.
Note: Guests are automatically added to the billing group of the person who invited them. If the person who invited them isn’t assigned to a billing group, the guest is also Unassigned.
- From the file browser, click Admin.
- Select the relevant billing group in the sidebar.
- To assign someone, click Add members and search for the person you'd like to add.
- To unassign someone, search in the table for the person you’d like to unassign. In the Billing group column, click the dropdown menu to change their billing group.
- From the file browser, click Admin.
- Select the People tab.
- Search for the person you’d like to manage.
- In the Billing group column, click the dropdown menu to change their billing group.
Tip: You can manage people in bulk by hovering over each name and marking the checkbox that appears. Once you’ve selected multiple people, click Change billing group at the bottom of the screen.
Change people’s seat types
Billing group admins and organization admins can manage members’ paid status at any time. This includes:
Confirm paid seats during a true-up
If your subscription has not renewed since March 11, 2025, you might still use true-ups to manage your billing. Billing group admins can review and adjust the number of paid seats in their billing group during a true-up period.
