Hi, Our Figma annual plan renews on April 21 and I want to downgrade 9 members from Full seats to Dev seats before the renewal date. I want to make sure I'm doing this in the right order to avoid any additional monthly billing or access issues.

My plan is to reassign each member individually on the Members page first, and then confirm the updated seat counts in the renewal dialog. Is this the correct approach, or should I adjust the seat counts in the renewal dialog first?

Also, when I downgrade a member from Full to Dev, does the change take effect immediately or only at the next billing cycle?

Thanks!

Hi ​@Federico Stampini — Celyn from Figma Community Support here.

Thanks for reaching out, happy to help!

Since you’re on an annual Professional plan, 30 days before your renewal, you’ll see a banner at the top of your Figma admin. From there, you can click “Review seats” to open a modal where you can confirm how many of each seat type you’d like for your next billing term.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

From the modal, you can add or remove the number of seats by seat type to renew on your annual subscription.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Regarding your question on timing:

  • When you downgrade a member from Full to Dev, their access updates immediately based on the new seat type
  • Billing is tied to your billing term, the updated seat types will be reflected at your next renewal.
