Hi Figma team,

Previously I registered education plan and now it’s expired. I want to change to normal free plan to edit my current projects. What do I have to do now?

Thank you,
Trang

Hey @Trang_Bui,

Here are a few things to keep in mind before you downgrade:

  • File limits: On the Starter plan, your team can have three FigJam files and three Figma design files with a maximum of three pages per design file. You can invite as many people as you want to view or edit these files. If you have more than the allowed number of files in your team when you downgrade, Figma will prevent you from being able to edit your files. To keep editing those files, move them to your drafts or another team. Learn more about moving files →
  • Project limit: On a Starter plan, your team will have one project. If your team has more than one project when you downgrade, Figma will lock your team and prevent you from editing your files. To keep editing, you’ll need to reorganize your files and projects so they are under those limits. Learn more about moving projects and moving files →

We will never delete files on your behalf, but if the files exceed the limits of the Starter plan when your Education plan expires, you won’t be able to edit those files until you move the remaining files to your drafts .

That said, if you want to continue using Figma on a free Starter team, we recommend that you do the following:

  • Move up to three Figma design and three FigJam files into one project
  • Remove extra projects
  • Move additional files to your drafts
