Not wanting to say real name

Hi. I am a student, and want to use paid features for free at home. In case this is in the wrong area, you can say it is in the wrong category.

Hi ​@Not wanting to say real name - apologies for the confusion on my part, but I wasn’t quite sure what you meant in the last half of your post.

 

To start, Figma offers free EDU team access to eligible students and educators.

Once you’re verified, you can upgrade your team at no cost. Make sure your teammates verify their EDU status too, or they’ll be asked to join a paid plan. To maintain your EDU team, you’ll need to re-verify each year.

If you are student, can you take a look at the above help pages and go through the verification process? Once you are verified as a student, you should be able to gain access to a free education team.

However: please note you will need to have a verified school email address from an approved university/school.

I get what you mean, I mostly use Figma for personal projects at home too. Even as a student, sometimes the free plan feels a bit limiting compared to the paid features.
