| Which plan to pick | Try it free first, but expect to run out of credits quickly. If you design in Figma most days, a Professional Full seat is the one to get. Extra credits can be bought pay-as-you-go if a big project needs them. | Basic is enough for most small business sites, and the free custom domain on a yearly plan makes it good value. Move to Pro when you pass 30 pages or want more than two CMS collections. Budget for extra editor seats at $20 a month if more than one person will design. | Build on Free until the app does what you need. Basic works for one or two simple apps, but Plus is the better fit for most small businesses because it allows public apps and more workflows. Pro only makes sense once you need unlimited apps or MCP building. |
