Only Organization Admins can manage an Organization's billing, members, and true-ups.
Figma Organizations go beyond the team setup you may be used to in a Professional or Starter team. Instead of a single workspace for a team, you have a dedicated "Organization space".
Everything in the Organization space is owned by the Organization. This includes files from individual's Drafts and every team within the Organization.
As members can join many teams, Organization subscriptions are billed as a whole. Anyone with can edit access to a team, project, or file outside their drafts is included in the Organization's billing.
In this article, we'll cover the billing model for Figma Organizations and step you through the process of a quarterly true-up.
Organization Admins define how many Editor seats they need when they first upgrade to the Figma Organization plan. This will be the Organization's annual subscription.
To account for any new Editors in the Organization, Figma performs a true-up every three months. An Organization's first true-up will occur three months after the initial billing date.
During the billing period, members can add new Editors or upgrade existing users. Figma won't charge the Organization for any new Editors yet.
Four weeks before the true-up, Figma will send an email reminder to the billing contacts on file. This shows the number of Editors added since the last billing date.
Organization Admins can choose to keep new Editors as paid Editor seats or downgrade them to free Viewers - Restricted. You'll only need to buy extra seats if the Organization has more seats than the previous billing date.
Figma will send further reminders two weeks before the true-up. and again three days before true-up is due. During this time, Organization Admins can confirm the total number of Editors to lock the upcoming invoice.
On the true-up date, Figma will charge the Organization for any confirmed Editors. This is a prorated amount, which covers that seat for the rest of the billing period.
Figma will send the billing contacts a reminder 14 days before the annual subscription is due to renew. This allows the Organization to adjust the amount of Editor seas they want for their annual subscription.
Figma sends another reminder five days before the annual subscription is due to renew.
Choose billing contacts
Organizations can have any number of billing contacts. Figma sends notifications around billing to the billing contacts on file. This includes notifications around the Organization's true-up, as well as any outstanding payments.
You can add anyone's email address as the billing contact. We recommend adding an Organization Admin, so they can manage the Organization's true-up, and any new Editors.
To add billing contacts:
Open Figma in the file browser.
Select Admin Settings in the sidebar.
Select Billing at the top of the page.
Add the email addresses for your billing contacts, each separated by a comma.
Click Submit when finished.
Note: There is a 500 character limit for email addresses in your contact list. If your list of billing contacts exceeds this limit, we recommend creating an email alias for your billing notifications. This allows you to set one email in Figma, while making sure the correct people are notified.
Manage billing
Organization Admins can view and manage the Organization's billing in the Billing tab of the Organization's Admin Settings.
Open Figma in the file browser.

Make payments
There are two ways to pay for an Organization, via credit card or invoice. As you can only make one payment per invoice, you will need to pay in full.
Upgraded via a Figma Account Executive: pay for your Organization via invoice. You will have 30 days to pay the invoice.
Upgraded in the Figma product: Figma will already have your credit card on file and will charge the total due on the true-up date.
Purchase orders
Purchase orders are official documents that confirm the quantity and price for products and services. Businesses may require purchase orders for budget approval and tracking purposes.
There isn't a dedicated process for managing purchase orders in the Figma product. However, you can ask Figma to include references to any purchase orders on your account invoices.
You can submit these to Figma to include them on your invoice. Even if you have your own system for managing purchase orders, please reach out to your account manager or invoices@figma.com to co-ordinate.
Note: You can submit as many purchase orders as you need within a quarter. Figma will only generate one invoice for every true-up.

You can only add members to the Organization itself, if domain capture is off. If domain capture is off, Organization Admins can add members directly to the Organization.

Upgrade a member to an Editor to allow them to edit resources in the Organization. Figma will include them as an Editor seat in your next billing true-up.
Remove members to immediately revoke their access from the Organization. This prevents them from accessing any teams, files, projects, or libraries in the Organization.
There are a few steps to take when removing a member or guest from an Organization.
Transfer teams, files and projects
We recommend you transfer ownership of a member's teams, files and projects, before you remove them. This allows you to select the new owner of those resources.
If you don't, Figma will transfer ownership to a team Admin or an Editor on a file or project.
Anything within the Organization space is the Organization's intellectual property, this includes member Drafts.
When you remove a member from an Organization, Figma moves any files from the member's Drafts to the Shared Projects folder. This locks those files and projects for any other collaborators with access to them
Admins will need to assign new owners to those resources before collaborators can continue to edit them.
Open Figma in the file browser and select Shared Projects in the sidebar.
Find the member's drafts you want to manage. It will look something like Name's (email@address.com) Deleted Drafts
You'll need to move the folder to a Team before you can access the files within it. Click on the folder name and select Add to favorites from the options.
Figma will add the project to the sidebar. Click and hold on the folder in the file browser and drag it to a new team.
Team: Select a team to view activity within that specific team.
Export activity logs
If you want to keep a record of your activity logs, you can export them to CSV. There are a few dates in the CSV file. Here's how you can interpret those:
Last active: The date and time the user was last active in Figma. This is not specific to edit actions and includes activity in the File Browser.
Last edit: The date and time the user last took an edit action on a Figma file in the Organization space. This includes files in a user's Drafts.
Last seen: The date and time the user last visited a Figma link.
At the moment, it's only possible to filter by date for an export. If you have applied any other filters, these won't be taken into account for the export.
Enter a start and end date to see results for a specific date range.
Click Request CSV at the top of the page:
Figma will download a copy of your the activity log for that date range.

Any Admin or member logs in to or signs out of their Figma account.
Note: Figma doesn't record log in activities for guests of the Organization. Figma alsoe doesn't record when a member closes a browser window or exits Figma without logging out.
Figma also records the following Organization Admin events:
An Organization Admin changes the Organization's membership settings, including changing the name, icon or any domains associated with the Organization.
An Organization Admin changes the Organization's log in and authentication settings. For example: when you enable or enforce log in via SAML SSO.
An Organization Admin updates a folder's sharing permissions.
An Organization Admin removes a member from the Organization.
If they can get edit access to teams, projects, or files
If they're included in the Organization's billing
There are three roles:
Viewer is a provisional role that removes barriers to collaboration. Viewers can view and comment on resources in the organization. Viewers can also upgrade themselves when they perform any of the upgrade actions.
Viewer Restricted is a role that can only perform limited actions within an Organization. They can't upgrade themselves, so they will need an Organization Admin to upgrade their access.
Editor is a role for members with can edit access to at least one team, project or file. They can't edit all resources in the organization, just the ones they have edit access to. Figma only includes Editors in the organization's billing.
There are a few ways members and guests can be assigned roles:
If you upgrade to Figma Organization from a Professional team, anyone with an existing Editor role on any teams or files will be made an Editor in the organization.
When you add people to your organization, via domain capture or manual invitation, Figma will give them a provisional Viewer role. Organization Admins can update a member's role after adding them to the organization.
Note: You can have any combination of account type and role in an organization. That includes Guests who are Editors, or Organization Admins with Viewer Restricted access.
Tip! Figma allows Organization Admins to view and manage new Editors via quarterly true-ups. Admins can restrict a member's access to remove them from the Organization's billing. Learn how to manage billing in an organization →

Other Editors in a team can also upgrade Viewers by inviting them to teams or files as Editors. This also applies when updating a collaborator's permissions from Can view to Can edit.
Upgrade from Viewer Restricted
Note: Organization Admins are the only ones who can upgrade anyone with a Viewer Restricted role to an Editor.
