Hypermatic Pro licenses are seat-based. One seat is for one Figma user. If your team has 7 people who need to use a plugin, choose 7 seats.
Two different tools control seats:
| Change | Tool |
|---|---|
| Replace one linked Figma user with another | Hypermatic License Manager |
| Increase or reduce the number of paid seats | Manage membership in the Gumroad receipt |
Reassign an existing seat or add a new team member
- Open the Hypermatic License Manager.
- Enter your license key.
- Review which Figma users are linked to the key.
- Remove users who no longer need access.
- Share the same key with the new Figma user who should use the seat.
I added a member on Gumroad. How do I assign the seat?
If you already increased the paid seat count in Gumroad, the next step is to link that new seat to the correct Figma user.
- Open the Hypermatic License Manager.
- Enter the same license key from the Gumroad receipt.
- Share that key with the new team member or user who needs access.
- Ask them to unlock the plugin with that same key from their own Figma account.
If the old seat is still occupied, remove the previous Figma user in the license manager first.
Free a seat for another person
Open the license manager, remove the old Figma user from the key, then ask the new user to unlock the plugin with the same license key.
This is useful when someone leaves a team, a contractor finishes, or a different designer needs to use the plugin.
Replace an employee or contractor
For a multi-seat license, open the Hypermatic License Manager, remove the old Figma user from the license key, then share the same license key with the new Figma user. The new user can unlock the plugin with that key.
This changes which Figma users are linked to the key. It does not change the number of paid seats on the subscription.
Reassigning users versus changing paid seats
Reassigning a user means removing one Figma user from the license key and allowing another Figma user to use that existing seat. Use the Hypermatic License Manager for this.
Changing the number of paid seats means increasing or reducing how many seats the subscription includes. Use the Manage membership link in the Gumroad receipt for this.
Do we get one license key or multiple license keys for a multi-seat purchase?
A multi-seat purchase uses one license key with multiple allowed Figma users. Share the same license key with the team members who should use the paid seats, then manage the linked Figma users in the Hypermatic License Manager.
Add paid seats
Open a Gumroad receipt for the subscription, select the Manage membership or subscription settings link, then use the plus button under Seats to increase the number of seats.
When you add seats, Gumroad normally charges a prorated amount immediately so the additional seats align with the current renewal date.
Remove paid seats
Open a Gumroad receipt for the subscription, select the Manage membership or subscription settings link, then use the minus button under Seats to reduce the number of seats.
Removing seats usually updates the renewal price at the end of the current billing cycle.
Understand prorated seat charges
Prorated pricing means Gumroad charges only for the remaining time in the current billing period when you add seats mid-cycle.
For example, if you add seats halfway through a yearly subscription, Gumroad calculates the unused part of the existing billing period and charges the appropriate remaining amount for the extra seats.
Does changing seats change who can use the license?
Changing the seat count changes how many Figma users can be linked to the key. The license manager controls which specific Figma users are using those seats.
If you add seats, the license can support more Figma users. If you remove seats, make sure only the remaining allowed number of users are linked.
Does "add user" or "assign seat" mean the same thing?
Usually, yes. People often say "add a user", "add a member", or "assign a seat" when they mean one of two different actions:
- Increase the number of paid seats in Gumroad.
- Link an existing seat to a different Figma user in the license manager.
Use Gumroad when you need more total seats. Use the license manager when you need to decide which people use those seats.
Get help with seat changes
Use the Hypermatic License Manager to change which Figma users are linked to an existing license key. Use the Manage membership link in your Gumroad receipt to change the paid seat count on a subscription.
The support chat can explain those workflows. Private license or subscription changes need the self-serve tools or email support. Use the license manager for linked Figma users, Gumroad for paid seat counts, and email [email protected] for account-specific help.
