| Hidden Overage Trap | Viral 'True-Up' trap: developers or PMs who click 'Edit' on a file or FigJam board auto-upgrade from free Viewer to a $45โ$75/mo Full Seat on the next quarterly invoice. | Accidental Unicode character (single smart-quote or emoji) cuts SMS segment limit from 160 to 70 characters, silently doubling or tripling segment charges. |
| Primary Negotiation Lever | Enable 'Require Admin Approval for Seat Upgrades' in Figma settings immediately, move engineers to Dev Mode ($12โ$25/mo) or free Viewers, and cap quarterly true-ups. | Enable Twilio Smart Encoding to strip accidental Unicode, and sign a 12-month minimum monthly spend commit to drop outbound segment rate by 30%โ40%. |
