Accidental Editor Assignment – One-Time Charge Refund Request

Hello Figma Support Team,

I recently noticed an additional charge on my invoice under "One-time charges and credits." 
It appears that this was caused when I mistakenly assigned a team member as an Editor, which automatically added a paid seat. 
As soon as I realized this mistake, I quickly reverted the member back to View-only mode. 

Since this was an unintentional action and the additional seat was never actually used, I kindly request if the related charge can be canceled or refunded. 
I understand that Figma charges automatically when a seat is upgraded, but I would greatly appreciate your understanding in this case, as the change was accidental and corrected immediately. 

Thank you very much for your assistance.  
Best regards,

Hi ​@로밀리, thanks for reaching out! 

While Figma doesn’t typically issue prorated refunds when a user is downgraded to a free Viewer seat, the paid seat does remain available for the rest of the billing period, so you can reassign it if needed.

I’ve created a support ticket for you (#1507599) so our billing team can double-check that the seat adjustment went through correctly and confirm whether a refund might be possible. Someone from the team will be in touch with you shortly.

 

Thank you for your patience in the meantime.

Hi ​@Gayani_S I have made a similar error and immediately reverted the seat assignment. Could you please look into it for me as well? Thanks a lot!

 

Best,

Anushka

Hi Figma,

I have the same problem where it says there’s a monthly invoice coming up under “one-time charges and credit”. I also changed my seat to view only, is there anyway for this payment to not go through?

I have the same issue, although right after changing the seat by mistake I reached out to Figma support and was informed I wouldn't be charged the extra fee if I didn't assign this seat (which I didn't). And now you still charged me? Is this a joke?

Hi ​@Domi07 — thanks for reaching out and for sharing the details here.

I checked on this and can confirm our Product Support team is reviewing your request. Your case number is: 1641078, and they’ll follow up directly at the email address associated with your account with more context and next steps.

While I can’t access or share account-specific billing details from Figma Forum, one thing that may help explain what you’re seeing is how seat changes are handled within a billing cycle. In general, when a seat is upgraded and then removed, it remains available for use through the remainder of the subscription period. This article walks through that behavior in more detail: Manage seats in Figma → Remove seats.

Appreciate you raising this here — the team will take a closer look and follow up as soon as possible.

Hi,

I encountered the same problem with my Figma account. I was not aware that the two members I added were set as Editors instead of View-only, so Figma charged me an additional fee that I wasn’t aware of. As soon as I realized this, I changed both members’ roles to View-only in my workspace.

Would it be possible to receive a refund and have my bill adjusted back to the normal price of €24? I would really appreciate your response.

Thank you very much.
