Figma is launching a fully localized Spanish experience for users in Spain, including translated products, culturally adapted interfaces, and dedicated support. The move reflects Spain’s strong adoption of Figma and the company’s broader strategy to serve its largely international user base. Spanish becomes Figma’s second fully localized language after Japanese, with more languages planned later this year.

Spanish Localization Goes Beyond Translation

  • Figma is adapting its product experience for Spanish-speaking users through:
    • Full product translation
    • Culturally relevant user interfaces
    • Dedicated Spanish-language support
  • The rollout begins March 27 and is expected to finish by April 17.
  • Figma says it aims to understand the specific needs of Spanish businesses and product teams.

Figma’s Strong Presence in Spain

  • Nearly half of Spain’s IBEX 35 companies use Figma, including:
    • Amadeus
    • Banco Sabadell
    • Cabify
    • SEAT
    • Repsol
    • Telefonica
  • Spanish users created more than 1.5 million Figma files in 2024.
  • Nearly 34,000 files are edited daily across the country.
  • The Barcelona Friends of Figma community has more than 2,000 active members, making it Figma’s largest community chapter.

Benefits for Spanish Teams

  • Companies such as Telefonica and Cabify expect the Spanish interface to improve collaboration and make Figma more accessible.
  • Localization is intended to help designers, developers, and broader product teams communicate and work more efficiently.
  • The effort supports Figma’s shift toward serving the entire product development process, not only traditional design roles.

Part of Figma’s Global Expansion

  • About 85% of Figma’s monthly active users are outside the United States.
  • Approximately half of its revenue comes from non-U.S. markets.
  • Around one-third of users identify as developers, while nearly two-thirds work outside traditional design roles.
  • Spanish localization arrives alongside Figma’s expanding product ecosystem, including:
    • FigJam, launched in 2021
    • Dev Mode, launched in 2023
    • Figma Slides, launched in 2024
    • New AI capabilities and other product development tools

Figma’s Spanish launch is both a response to Spain’s established user community and a broader investment in international growth. By combining language support with localized product experiences, Figma aims to reduce barriers for Spanish teams while preparing to add more languages throughout the year.
