My Student (Education plan) benefits disappeared

Hi there,

I need some help with my account.

 

I previously had a paid Figma subscription, and later received a student plan through my studies. Everything worked normally, including access to Figma Make tokens and image credits.

 

However, after canceling my paid subscription, all my student benefits disappeared — including Make tokens and the image generation credits (Nano Banana / Gemini integration). It seems like my account lost the student status even though I’m still an active student and eligible for the education plan.

 

Could you please help me restore my student status and the benefits associated with the Figma Education plan?

 

Thank you!

Hi ​@Shawn Schwartzman, thanks for reaching out!

I can see that your account is currently on the Free Starter plan, which does come with some limitations around Figma Make and related features. For example:

  • Starter plans cannot use team libraries to bring style context to Figma Make (team libraries are a paid feature)
  • Starter plans can only publish to the public web if they also publish to the Figma Community

 

To restore access to education plan, you’ll need to reapply to be reverified. You can find the step-by-step application process here in our Help Center: https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/articles/360041061214-Figma-for-Education#apply

 

Hope this helps! If you run into any issues during the process, feel free to reach out again.
