Miro has four plans in 2026: Free ($0, 3 editable boards), Starter at $8 per member a month billed yearly or $10 billed monthly, Business at $20 billed yearly or $25 billed monthly, and Enterprise at custom pricing from 30 members. The cheapest paid option is Starter on yearly billing, $96 per member a year. Before you commit to a year, know that Miro does not refund unused time: its help center says "Miro doesn't offer refunds for any unused time on your subscription", so cancelling stops the next renewal and nothing more. All figures are from miro.com/pricing and Miro's help center, checked 2026-10-08.
Miro plans and prices

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | $0 | 10 (pricing FAQ), "Limited trial" (plan comparison), 25 (help center) | 3 editable |
| Starter | $8 per member a month ($96 a year) | $10 per member a month | 25 per member, pooled | Unlimited and private |

Miro labels the yearly option "Yearly (save 20%)". Monthly prices show when you switch the page to Monthly; the price data behind it also lists euros at the same figures (EUR 8 or 10 on Starter, EUR 20 or 25 on Business). Business has a 14-day free trial: you enter card details at checkout, and unless you cancel within the 14 days, "your trial automatically converts to a paid Business subscription".
The rule that sets your real bill: seats
Miro charges per seat, and four rules decide how many you pay for.
Every member is a paid seat. "Members consume a paid seat", prorated mid-cycle. Guests and visitors do not: "Sharing boards with Visitors or Guests doesn't cost extra."
Invites can add seats on their own. "If you add a new team member and all the licenses in your plan are already in use, an extra license is added." The setting behind this ("Anyone can expand the team") is off by default on Business, but on Starter Miro says it "is enabled for everyone by default". Admins can restrict it in the team invitation settings.
Removing a seat waits for renewal. "Removing a member takes effect at renewal, not immediately." Remove an extra seat before your next billing date and Miro charges only for the days it was on the account; once billed, "No refund is available." On a yearly plan that adds up: Miro's own example bills $91.79 for a $96-a-year license added with 349 days left until renewal.
The minimum is stated two ways. Miro's help center lists "Minimum purchase – 2 licenses" for Starter and Business, while the pricing page FAQ says card payments "can be billed monthly or annually with no license minimum". If two seats is the floor at your checkout, the cheapest Starter subscription is $192 a year, or $20 a month billed monthly.
Miro AI credits
The allowance is calculated per seat and spent from one pool: "Credits are pooled and shared across your team. Everyone draws from one balance." Credits reset monthly and do not roll over. An image costs 3 credits, a diagram or a table 5, a slide 5 per slide. Starter and Business admins can buy extra bundles (Miro's examples are 100 or 200 credits) at a price not shown on the pricing page. Undoing a result does not return credits. The full cost table and team math are in Miro AI credits explained.
Miro's refund policy, in Miro's words
You cancel mid-term. "Miro doesn't offer refunds for any unused time on your subscription. However, you will retain access to all paid features until the end of the paid period." (Help center, Cancel your Miro subscription.)
You think you were charged by mistake. "If you think that you were incorrectly charged, contact Miro Support and include the transaction details. Please note that some special offers are non-refundable." (Help center, Manage your subscription.) Miro says the Billing Admin, the cardholder, can request refunds.
An extra seat was billed. "The decrease is scheduled to occur at renewal. No refund is available." (Help center, Manage extra licenses.)
The terms. Miro's Terms of Service, "the standard terms of service applicable to all Miro self-serve and reseller customers", say: "All fees and expenses are non-refundable except as set out in Section 10.2 (Warranty Remedy) and Section 14.4 (Mitigation and Exceptions)." Those sections refund pre-paid, unused fees when Miro cannot fix a warranty problem within 60 days of the claim, or when Miro ends an order over an infringement claim.
In practice, you keep only money not yet charged: cancel a Business trial inside its 14 days (Miro: "you won't be charged"), cancel before renewal, and remove seats before the next billing date.
How to downgrade or cancel Miro
Billing admins and Company admins can downgrade (Team admins can also cancel):
- Click your profile avatar, then Admin console, then Billing.
- Under Billing actions, click Cancel subscription, then Continue, and give a reason.
- To move to Free: when your paid plan expires, Miro asks you to choose a plan; under Free, click Downgrade.
- To move from Business to Starter: agree to downgrade at the end of your billing cycle, then click Downgrade. You can undo it before then under Admin console > Billing > Cancel downgrade.
Downgrades, cancellations and a switch from yearly to monthly billing take effect at the end of the term. On Free, only your three most recently created boards stay editable; the rest become view-only, private boards are locked and custom templates are no longer available. Boards are not deleted. Miro hides the billing settings after a downgrade to Free, so download your invoices first.
How to pay less for Miro
- Stay on Free if 3 editable boards are enough. It admits unlimited team members. Note that the pricing page says you can create unlimited boards (the three most recent stay editable), while Miro's Free plan help article says a team at 3 boards must delete one or upgrade to create another.
- Pay yearly only for seats you are sure of. It saves 20%, and seats removed mid-year stay paid until renewal.
- Use visitors and guests instead of seats. Starter lets visitors edit public boards with no sign-in; Business adds signed-in guests who can edit.
- Restrict who can expand the team, so an invite cannot add a seat.
- Check the discounts. Accredited educational institutions get Miro free through the Education plan. Nonprofits get 30% off, which Miro says can combine with the yearly discount for 44% off. Eligible startups can get $1,000 or $500 in Miro credits, and VC-backed companies can apply for 25% off Enterprise.
Will the Bending Spoons deal change the price?
Bending Spoons announced on 2026-09-10 that it will acquire Miro, with closing expected in the fourth quarter of 2026. The release announces no change to Miro's prices or plans; the buyer's track record is in Miro acquired by Bending Spoons.
If what you need is image and video generation
Disclosure: 8frame is our product. It is not a whiteboard (no sticky notes, votes, timers or diagram shapes); it is a canvas that runs image and video models. The canvas is free and unlimited; generation is paid from $19/month (Starter, 1,000 credits that roll over while you stay subscribed). Credits are per user, not a team pool, inviting collaborators needs Creator ($49/month, up to 3 members) or Agency ($499/month, up to 30), and failed generations are refunded automatically. For workshops and diagrams, Miro or one of the best free Miro alternatives fits better; for visual work, see 8frame as a Miro alternative.
