Frequently asked questions
Cancel Figma: The Right Way
How to cancel Figma in canada: your complete legal guide and step-by-step process
What is Figma and why you might want to cancel
Figma is a cloud-based design and prototyping platform that enables teams to collaborate on interface design, interactive mockups, and FigJam whiteboarding in real time. The service operates on a seat-based pricing model and offers free and paid plans, plus a Community marketplace for plugins and extensions.
You may subscribe directly through Figma's website, via the Apple App Store, Google Play, or through plugin purchases on Stripe. Each subscription channel carries its own cancellation procedure. This guide walks you through every cancellation method available to Canadian users, explains what happens to your files and access, clarifies your refund rights under Canadian consumer law, and helps you avoid common pitfalls that leave accounts active when you intended to cancel.
Yafee has helped thousands of consumers navigate subscription cancellations across design platforms, and we understand that Figma's multiple subscription channels can create confusion. That is why we have broken down each path to cancellation with step-by-step precision.
Why you cancel Figma
You might cancel because you have completed a short-term project, switched to a competing design tool, or found that your team no longer needs paid seats. Others cancel annual subscriptions to evaluate free alternatives before committing to another year. Whatever your reason, understanding your options before you act protects your files, prevents unexpected charges, and ensures you receive any refund you are entitled to under Canadian consumer protection law.
Common reasons users delay cancellation
Many users delay cancellation because they worry about losing access to their design files or losing control over shared projects. Others are uncertain which cancellation method applies to them, especially if they have subscribed through multiple channels. At Yafee, we find that clarity about what happens after you cancel is the first step to acting with confidence.
Figma pricing in canada
Understanding Figma's pricing structure helps you decide whether the subscription justifies the cost and whether cancellation is the right choice for your situation.
| Plan | Price (CAD) | Billing cycle | Key features |
|---|---|---|---|
| Starter | Free | N/A | Basic design tools, 3 projects, Community plugins |
| Professional | $12-15/month | Monthly or annual | Unlimited projects, advanced prototyping, version history |
| Organization | $12-15/seat/month | Monthly or annual | Team management, shared components, advanced governance |
| Plugin subscriptions | Varies | Monthly | Specialized design plugins, auto-renew via Stripe |
| App Store or Google Play | Varies | Monthly or annual | Mobile app access, governed by Apple or Google policies |
If you are on an annual plan, you are committing to a full 12 months of charges. Most of Figma's annual subscriptions are non-refundable unless billing errors occur or Canadian law requires a refund. Before you cancel, verify which plan you hold and when your next billing date arrives.
Your legal position: consumer rights in canada
Your right to cancel a subscription is grounded in Canadian consumer protection law. Specifically, the Consumer Protection Act (in provinces such as Ontario) and equivalent legislation in other provinces protect you against unfair contract terms and require companies to honour cancellation requests within a reasonable timeframe.
What canadian law requires
Under Canadian consumer protection legislation, subscription companies must provide you with a simple, accessible cancellation mechanism. You have the right to cancel without penalty during a cooling-off period (typically 14 days from purchase). After that period, you may still cancel, but the company may enforce the terms of your subscription agreement-for example, annual plans may be non-refundable once the cooling-off period expires.
Furthermore, if you subscribed through a third party such as the Apple App Store or Google Play, the terms and cancellation rights may differ. Apple and Google enforce their own refund and cancellation policies, which sometimes offer stronger protections than Figma's direct subscription terms. Yafee recommends checking the specific platform's policy before you cancel.
Your legal position block
Your legal position: You have the right to cancel your Figma subscription at any time. If you cancel within 14 days of purchase, you are entitled to a full refund under the Consumer Protection Act. After 14 days, refund eligibility depends on the billing cycle you selected (monthly subscriptions are more flexible; annual subscriptions are typically non-refundable unless the company made a billing error). If Figma refuses to honour your cancellation request or withholds a refund you are legally entitled to, you may escalate your complaint to the relevant provincial consumer protection authority, such as the Ontario Ministry of Government and Consumer Services.
How to cancel Figma by subscription type
Your cancellation method depends on which platform you used to purchase your subscription. Figma offers multiple subscription channels, and each has its own cancellation process.
Cancel a direct web subscription through figma.com
If you subscribed directly on Figma's website using your email and payment card, you cancel from your account settings. This is the most common path for Canadian users and typically takes 2-3 minutes.
- Log in to your Figma account at figma.com using your email and password.
- If you have forgotten your password, click "Forgot password?" and follow the recovery link sent to your email.
- Click your profile avatar in the top right corner of the dashboard.
- A dropdown menu appears showing your account options.
- Select "Settings" from the dropdown menu.
- You are now in your account settings page.
- Navigate to the "Billing" or "Subscription" tab on the left sidebar.
- This section displays your current plan, billing date, and payment method.
- Locate your active subscription and click "Change plan" or "Manage subscription".
- A window appears showing your subscription details and options.
- Select "Cancel subscription" or "Downgrade to free plan".
- Figma displays a confirmation message explaining what will happen to your files and projects.
- Confirm your cancellation by clicking the final "Cancel" button.
- You receive an email confirmation within minutes. Your subscription ends at the end of your current billing cycle, and your account reverts to the free Starter plan at that time.
Cancel a subscription purchased through apple app store
If you subscribed to Figma through the Apple App Store on an iPhone, iPad, or Mac, you must cancel through Apple's App Store settings, not through Figma's website. Apple manages billing and refunds independently.
- Open the Apple App Store app on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac.
- If you are on a Mac, click the App Store icon in the menu bar.
- Tap or click your profile icon in the bottom right corner of the App Store window.
- This opens your account page.
- Select "Subscriptions" from the account menu.
- You see a list of all active subscriptions tied to your Apple ID.
- Find "Figma" in the subscriptions list and tap or click it.
- The Figma subscription details appear, including your renewal date and price.
- Tap or click "Cancel subscription" or "Edit subscription".
- Apple asks you to confirm the cancellation.
- Follow the on-screen prompts to complete the cancellation.
- Your subscription ends at the end of your current billing period. Apple sends you a confirmation email.
Cancel a subscription purchased through google play
If you subscribed to Figma through Google Play on an Android device, you cancel through Google Play's subscription management interface. Google handles all billing and refund processing.
- Open the Google Play app on your Android device.
- Alternatively, you can visit play.google.com in a web browser.
- Tap the profile icon in the top right corner.
- A menu appears with account options.
- Select "Manage subscriptions" or "Subscriptions and payments".
- You see a list of all active subscriptions.
- Tap "Figma" from the list.
- Figma's subscription details appear, including renewal date and billing amount.
- Tap "Cancel subscription".
- Google asks you to confirm and may offer you a discount to retain the subscription. You can decline and proceed with cancellation.
- Follow the final confirmation steps.
- Your subscription ends at the end of your current billing cycle. Google sends a confirmation email to your account.
Cancel a plugin subscription purchased through stripe
Plugin subscriptions in Figma's Community marketplace are billed through Stripe. You must cancel through your Stripe payment portal or contact the plugin developer directly.
- Log in to your Figma account and navigate to your billing or subscription settings (see the direct web subscription steps above).
- Look for any "Plugin subscriptions" section or third-party billing entries.
- Identify the plugin subscription you wish to cancel and note the billing date.
- Plugin subscriptions often appear separately from your main Figma plan subscription.
- Visit your email inbox and locate the invoice or receipt from Stripe for that plugin.
- Stripe sends receipts each billing cycle. The email includes a link to your Stripe customer portal.
- Click the Stripe payment portal link in the email.
- You are taken to a secure page where you can manage your subscriptions and payment methods.
- Locate the Figma plugin subscription in the portal and select "Cancel" or "Manage subscription".
- Stripe may ask you to confirm your cancellation.
- Confirm cancellation and save your changes.
- Stripe sends you a confirmation email. Your plugin subscription ends at the end of your current billing cycle.
What happens after you cancel Figma
Once you cancel your subscription, it is important to understand what occurs to your account, files, and team access. Yafee explains the timeline and consequences clearly so you can prepare.
Immediate effects on your account
Your cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing cycle, not immediately. During the remaining time in your billing period, you retain full access to all paid features. After the billing cycle ends, your account automatically downgrades to the free Starter plan. At that point, you lose access to unlimited projects, advanced prototyping tools, version history, and team management features.
What happens to your files and projects
Your design files and projects do not disappear after cancellation. They remain in your account indefinitely. However, your free Starter plan limits you to 3 active projects at any time. If you have more than 3 projects when your subscription expires, you must delete or archive the excess projects manually, or you cannot access them. Figma sends you a warning email before your downgrade, giving you time to manage your project library.
Team and shared projects
If you owned a team or were an admin in an Organization plan, your team access ends immediately upon cancellation. Team members lose access to shared projects and components. Figma recommends transferring admin privileges to another team member before you cancel, or ensuring your team transitions to another plan before your subscription expires. If your team members need continued access, they must each maintain their own paid subscription or switch to the free plan.
Your refund rights under canadian law
Refund eligibility for your Figma subscription depends on when you cancel, which plan you hold, and how you purchased your subscription.
14-day cooling-off period
Under the Consumer Protection Act in Canada, you have the right to cancel your subscription and receive a full refund within 14 days of purchase, provided you have not used the service extensively. Figma honours this statutory cooling-off period for direct web subscriptions. If you cancel within 14 days of subscribing, you receive a full refund to your original payment method, regardless of the billing cycle.
Refunds after 14 days
After the 14-day cooling-off period, refund eligibility depends on your subscription type. Monthly subscriptions are more flexible: you can cancel at any time, and your subscription simply ends at the next renewal date without further charges. You do not receive a refund for the current month, but you avoid future charges. Annual subscriptions are typically non-refundable once the cooling-off period expires. However, if Figma made a billing error (e.g., charged you twice), you are entitled to a corrective refund.
Refunds for app store and google play subscriptions
If you purchased your subscription through Apple App Store or Google Play, you must request refunds through those platforms, not through Figma. Apple and Google have their own refund windows: typically 14 to 45 days from purchase, depending on the platform. Request your refund through the App Store or Google Play app using the steps outlined in the cancellation section above. Apple and Google process refund requests within 5-10 business days.
How to request a refund
If you believe you are entitled to a refund and have not received one automatically, contact Figma's support team directly. Send a written request to Figma's legal notice address at 760 Market St, San Francisco, CA 94102 (use registered mail with proof of delivery). Include your invoice number, subscription start date, and the reason for your refund request. Figma typically responds to refund requests within 10 business days. If Figma refuses your refund claim and you believe you are legally entitled to the refund, escalate your complaint to the relevant provincial consumer protection authority.
Common mistakes that prevent successful cancellation
Cancellation mistakes are frustrating and preventable. Yafee has identified the most common pitfalls so you can avoid them.
Mistake 1: confusing downgrade with cancellation
Many users click "Downgrade to free plan" thinking they are cancelling their subscription entirely. Downgrading switches you to the free Starter plan but continues your Figma account and does not stop recurring charges if you are on an annual plan. True cancellation removes your subscription and prevents all future charges. In Figma's settings, look for the option explicitly labelled "Cancel subscription" rather than "Change plan" or "Downgrade".
Mistake 2: cancelling on the wrong platform
If you subscribed through Apple App Store or Google Play, cancelling through Figma's website does not stop your app store subscription. You must cancel on the exact platform where you purchased. Cancelling in the wrong place leaves your subscription active and continues charging you. Always verify your original purchase receipt to confirm which platform issued your subscription.
Mistake 3: forgetting to delete projects before downgrade
When your Figma subscription downgrades to the free plan, you lose access to any projects beyond the first 3. If you have important design files in projects 4, 5, and 6, you cannot access them after downgrade. Before you cancel or downgrade, export or delete excess projects to protect your work. Yafee recommends exporting important files as PDF or Figma format before cancellation.
Mistake 4: not checking for plugin subscriptions
Plugin subscriptions are separate from your main Figma plan and continue to renew independently. Cancelling your main subscription does not stop plugin charges. Review your billing history for any third-party charges from Stripe or other payment processors. Cancel each plugin subscription individually following the Stripe process outlined above.
Mistake 5: cancelling without transferring team ownership
If you are an admin or owner of a Figma Organization, cancelling your subscription impacts all team members. Transfer admin privileges to another team member before you cancel, or your team loses access to shared projects. Communicate with your team before you cancel to avoid disruption.
