Upgrade to a Figma Organization

    Before you Start

    Who can use this feature

    Users on the Starter, Education and Professional Figma plans can upgrade to a Figma Organization.

    Users that are Admins or Owners of Education or Professional teams can upgrade a team. Editors on a Starter team can upgrade the team.

    We only support credit card payments at this time. (Paypal, ACH, or wire transfers are not supported).

     Want to add Domain Capture, customize your setup, or pay for your Organization via a different method? Reach out to the Figma sales team via the Contact Sales button on the Figma Organization page.

    Upgrade your Starter, Education, or Professional team to a Figma Organization. Figma Organization has everything you need to scale your design with confidence.

    You''ll have access to all the Figma features you know and love, as well as additional features and access controls.

    For more information around what features are included in Figma Organization, visit the Pricing page on the Figma website.

    Domain Capture controls how Figma treats other accounts with emails that match your company domain(s).

    If you are already part of an Organization with Domain Capture, it's not possible to upgrade another team on the same account. You can upgrade a separate team, if it's registered under another Figma account and email address.

    When you upgrade to a Figma Organization within Figma, your Organization will not include Domain Capture.

    Learn more in our Domain Capture in a Figma Organization article.

    • Team plans in Figma

      Figma is free for individual users. If you'd like to get more out of Figma, you can create a Team.

      Teams are for everyone! Whether you're working alone on a final project for your Portfolio. Or, collaborating with a large team on a new product.

      Teams let you invite collaborators to a shared Team Page, the home for all your Projects and design Files.

      To create a Team, you will need to choose a plan. There are four different plans or Team types available:

      Access and Permissions

      You can control how collaborators interact with your Team using Permissions.

      • Viewers can only browse Files and give feedback. We don't change you for Viewers and you can add as many as you need.
      • Editors can create new Files and make changes to existing ones. We base your subscription on your total Editor count.

      Note: Some of our plans have limitations around how many Editors you can have.

      Starter

      The Starter plan allows you to get a feel for collaboration in Figma.

      It's perfect if you're working by yourself and want to structure and organize your Files. Or, if you want to share your work with a collaborator.

      The Starter plan is free to use and comes with a few limitations:

      You can invite as many Viewers, and create as many Files as you need.

      We don't impose any limitations around the kind of work you can create in a Starter team. You can use a Starter plan for personal or business purposes.

      If you've reached the limits of the plan, or want to access more of Figma, you can Upgrade to a Professional plan.

      Click to Create a Starter Team

      Professional (Paid)

      The Professional plan gives you access to all Figma's collaborative features. The Professional plan is perfect for any group of people that want to share resources.

      This could be a design team within a Company, or a group of designers in an agency or collective.

      The Professional plan gives you access to all Figma's collaborative features:

      We base your Professional subscription on your Editor count - the number of Editors on your Team.

      Create a Professional Team

      Education

      Figma is passionate about making design accessible. If you are a student or educator, then you may qualify for a Figma Education team. 

      Education teams allow you to access all the functionality of our Professional team, without the cost. This allows students and educators in any structured learning environment to collaborate.

      Like our Professional plan, Education teams have access to:

      Members of Education teams can also join Figma's Education Community groups and ambassador programs. 

      There are specific criteria you must meet to qualify for a free Education team. Every member of an Education team will need to verify their Education Status.

      Your Education status will be valid for two years. If you are still a student or educator at the end of the two years, you can reapply for Education status.

      Learn more about Figma for Education

      Organization

      Figma Organizations allow you to share resources, Projects and Files across many Teams. Organizations also give you advanced access and administration controls.

      This is perfect for larger companies, where more than one Team has adopted or are wanting to adopt Figma. If you have complex administrative or security requirements, this one is for you.

      Figma Organizations have access to most of the functionality of a Professional Team:

      Figma Organizations also have:

      • 24/7 Prioritized Support
      • Unlimited Teams
      • Protect Intellectual Property with Draft Ownership
      • Enforced Company Single Sign On (SSO) with Domain Capture

      A Professional team gives you access to:

      • Unlimited Projects
      • Unlimited Editors (at $15/month per Editor or $144/year per Editor)
      • Unlimited Version History
      • Publishing Components to your Team Library

      • From the left-hand panel of the File Browser if you're not part of a Professional team
      • When previewing features available in a Professional plan
      • When reaching a limit of your current plan

      Otherwise, you can always create a team and upgrade it to a Professional plan from the team's settings page.

      • If you are on a Monthly subscription, Figma will include that Editor in your next month's invoice.
      • If you are on an Annual subscription, Figma will charge you the full monthly rate ($15/month per Editor) for each Editor. Figma will create a new monthly invoice for the following month.

      Make sure to clarify in your message the information you want us to include.

    • Switch to an annual subscription

      If you are on our  Monthly plan, we will bill you for your Figma account every month. We will base your plan price on the number of Editors currently on your Professional Team.

      To reduce admin, you can choose to switch to  Annual billing instead. This allows you to pay for an entire year of Figma upfront.

      When you switch to Annual Billing, we will:

      • Charge you for the Annual plan at your next monthly billing date.
      • Notify you 30 days before your next billing date to confirm you would like to Renew your Annual Plan.

      Note: If you switch to an Annual plan, it's not possible to switch back to a Monthly plan.

      Adding Editors

      When you sign up for an Annual plan you can choose how many Editors you will need.

      You can still add extra Editors to your account throughout your billing period. However, it's not possible to add Editors to an existing Annual Subscription. Instead, we will bill you monthly for any extra Editors. We refer to this as "co-terming".

      We won't charge you if you are replacing a departing Editor with a new one.

      6. Enter the number in the field provided. Click outside of the field to apply: 

        Note: You will still be able to add Editors to your account throughout your Annual billing cycle. We will charge you monthly, instead of annually, at the monthly rate.

        • Charge you for the Annual plan at your next monthly billing date.
        • Notify you 30 days before your next billing date to confirm you would like to Renew your Annual Plan.

      • Reduce the number of Editor Seats in your Annual billing

    • Manage Failed Payments

      Failed Payments

      Every now and then a subscription payment may fail. The most common causes for failed payments are:

      • Insufficient funds
      • An expired credit card

      If a payment fails, Figma will attempt payment again the next business day. Your account will be available during this time.

      If payment fails after a total of 3 attempts, we will lock down your account. During this time you will no longer have Can Edit access to your Files and Projects.

      To unlock your account, you will need to make a successful payment. You can force another payment by updating your payment information in Figma.

      Once you have made a payment, we will unlock your account and your access restored.

      Troubleshooting issues

      If you run into any issues with making payment, please contact Figma Support!

    • View your billing and invoices [Figma Organization]

      Organizations are billed on an Annual Subscription. 

      Every Member of your Organization will have an Account Type, which determines whether or not they require a license. Only Full Members of an Organization will require a license, and be included in your billing.

      Licenses are issued upon migration to an Organization. Additional Full members can be added at any time throughout the billing cycle. Any additional licenses are then paid for via Quarterly True-ups.

      Note: Licenses aren't linked to a specific member. This allows you to add and remove members throughout the billing cycle, without having to reassign licenses between members.

      View the Billing Summary

      You can view your Billing Summary, which details your Annual Subscription and any Quarterly True-ups, from the Admin Console.

      1. Click on the Organization's name in the top-left corner. 
      2. Click on the Settings cog to open the Admin Console.
      3. Go to the Billing tab. This will show you a summary of the current billing period.
        1. At the top of the Billing Summary you will see the details of your Annual Subscription. 

          This includes:
          1. Dates of your billing period.
          2. Original number of licenses purchased.
          3. Associated charges
          4. Date paid

           

        2. At the end of each quarter, you will be charged for any new licenses added to your Annual Subscription. We refer to these as Quarterly True-ups. 

          Quarterly True-ups will be listed underneath the  Annual Subscription in the Billing Summary. 

          Note: You can remove or downgrade any Full members that you don't want to include in your billing, before paying for any additional licenses. Learn more in our Manage Quarterly True Ups in an Organization article.

      Glossary

      • The Admin Console is where you can view and manage aspects of your Organization. This can be accessed by clicking the Organization name in the top-left corner and clicking the settings cog; or via the View all teams icon in the bottom-left corner.
      • Every Organization will purchase an Annual Subscription, which is paid upfront and automatically renews on the same date every year. This is charged on a per license basis and covers your use of every feature and function offered by Figma Organization.
      • Full members are any Members of your Organization that have Can Edit access to at least one File or Resource within your Organization, or have shared a file from their Drafts. This does not include Members with Can Edit access to Files in their own Drafts. Only Full members will be included in the Organization’s billing.
      • The number of Licenses you have correspond to the number of Full members you have in Organization. These are purchased as part of your Annual Subscription, but additional licenses can be added throughout your billing cycle.
      • To account for any new licenses added to your account during the year, we have Quarterly True-ups. These are billed and charged at the end of every quarter.
