What it is

The agreement authorizes Figma to change its fees at any time, with changes applying at the next renewal for recurring subscriptions. If Figma applies a price change during an active subscription term and the Customer objects, the agreement designates early termination with a pro-rata refund of prepaid fees as the exclusive remedy.

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

This provision establishes that price changes can be applied to ongoing subscriptions at renewal without Customer affirmative consent, and limits the Customer's remedy for mid-term price changes to early termination. Notice may be provided via email or through the platform.

The removal of the Subprocessors list link makes it less convenient for users, particularly enterprise and EU-based customers who rely on this information for data protection compliance, to verify which third parties Figma engages to process their data. While the subprocessor information may still exist on Figma's website, removing the direct link from the Terms of Service reduces accessibility and transparency. Enterprise customers and those subject to GDPR may need to contact Figma directly to access current subprocessor information.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Under this clause, Figma may change subscription fees at any time, with changes taking effect at the next renewal or, in specified cases, during an active subscription term. The agreement designates termination with a pro-rata refund as the exclusive remedy if a mid-term price change is objected to, requiring written notice to Figma within 30 days of the modification notice.

What you can do

  • Cancel Subscription
    Within 30 days
    If you receive a mid-term pricing modification notice and wish to terminate, notify Figma within 30 days of the modification notice through your account settings or by contacting Figma. Cancellation entitles you to a pro-rata refund of prepaid unused fees for the terminated portion.

"
Figma reserves the right to change its fees at any time. Changes to pricing that apply to an existing recurring subscription will take effect at the next order or renewal unless either party elects to not renew or Figma specifies otherwise. If Figma specifies that modifications will become effective during a then-current subscription term and Customer objects, Customer may terminate the remainder of the then-current subscription term for the affected Figma offering as its exclusive remedy.

Excerpt from Figma's Terms of Service

ConductAtlas Analysis

Institutional analysis (regulatory & governance intelligence)

(1) REGULATORY LANDSCAPE: Unilateral fee change provisions in subscription contracts engage state consumer protection statutes, including California's Automatic Renewal Law, which requires clear disclosure of price changes before they take effect. The FTC's Negative Option Rule may also apply to price change notification adequacy. EU/EEA consumer protection directives may impose additional requirements on unilateral contract modification in consumer agreements. (2) GOVERNANCE EXPOSURE: Medium. The provision that notice of pricing changes may be provided via email or through the platform, without requiring affirmative acknowledgment, means that customers who do not monitor their account notifications may be renewed at a higher rate without awareness. The 30-day window to object to mid-term price changes requires active monitoring of Figma communications. (3) JURISDICTION FLAGS: California's Automatic Renewal Law requires that material changes to subscription terms, including price changes, be disclosed clearly and conspicuously before they take effect. EU/EEA consumer contracts may require affirmative consent for price increases rather than passive renewal as acceptance. The document's California governing law designation is relevant here. (4) CONTRACT AND VENDOR IMPLICATIONS: Procurement teams managing annual Professional plan subscriptions should establish processes to review pricing change notices before renewal dates. The exclusive remedy of early termination with pro-rata refund for mid-term changes should be evaluated against the operational cost of migrating to an alternative platform. (5) COMPLIANCE CONSIDERATIONS: Finance and procurement teams should monitor Figma's communication channels for pricing change notices and establish internal review procedures to respond within the 30-day objection window. Customers on annual plans should verify the pricing in effect at each renewal cycle.
