To add a seat for a client in Webflow's Workspace without incurring additional costs for both your agency and the client, you can follow these best practices:

  1. Use Team Plans: Team plans in Webflow's Workspace allow multiple team members to access the same account. Instead of creating a separate account for each client, you can invite your client as a team member within your agency's account. This way, the client doesn't need to pay for a separate account.

  2. Assign Role-based Permissions: Webflow's Workspace allows you to assign different roles to team members. When inviting your client as a team member, assign them a role that provides them with access only to the necessary aspects of the project. By limiting their access to specific areas of the account, you can maintain control over the project and avoid any unauthorized changes.

  3. Utilize Client Billing: Client Billing is a feature in Webflow that allows you to transfer the billing responsibility to your client. Once the project is ready for launch or handover, you can transfer billing to the client's account. This way, the client can directly manage and pay for their Webflow subscription, removing the need for your agency to cover the costs.

  4. Educate Clients: In some cases, clients may not be familiar with the platform or the costs associated with it. It is essential to have a transparent conversation with your clients about Webflow's pricing structure. By educating them about the costs, you can ensure that they understand their responsibility and avoid any misunderstandings in the future.

By following these best practices, you can add a seat for your client in Webflow's Workspace without incurring additional costs for both your agency and the client, maintaining a seamless collaboration while avoiding unnecessary expenses.
