Manage team members and roles
Cursor teams have three roles:
Roles
Members are the default role with access to Cursor’s Pro features.
- Full access to Cursor’s Pro features
- No access to billing settings or admin dashboard
- Can see their own usage and remaining usage-based budget
Admins control team management and security settings.
- Full access to Pro features
- Add/remove members, modify roles, setup SSO
- Configure usage-based pricing and spending limits
- Access to team analytics
Unpaid Admins manage teams without using a paid seat - ideal for IT or finance staff who don’t need Cursor access.
- Not billable, no Pro features
- Same administrative capabilities as Admins
Unpaid Admins require at least one paid user on the team.

Change role
Admins can change roles for other members by clicking the context menu and then use the “Change role” option.
There must be at least one Admin, and one paid member on the team at all times.
Security & SSO
SAML 2.0 Single Sign-On (SSO) is available on Team plans. Key features include:
- Configure SSO connections (learn more)
- Set up domain verification
- Automatic user enrollment
- SSO enforcement options
- Identity provider integration (Okta, etc)
Domain verification is required to enable SSO.
Usage Controls
Access usage settings to:
- Enable usage-based pricing
- Enable for premium models
- Set admin-only modifications
- Set monthly spending limits
- Monitor team-wide usage
Billing
When adding team members:
- Each member or admin adds a billable seat (see pricing)
- Seat changes are prorated
- Unpaid admin seats aren’t counted
Mid-month additions charge only for days used. Removals credit unused days.
Role changes (e.g., Admin to Unpaid Admin) adjust billing from the change date. Choose monthly or yearly billing.
Monthly/yearly renewal occurs on your original signup date, regardless of member changes.
Switch to Yearly billing
Save 20% by switching from monthly to yearly:
- Go to Dashboard
- In account section, click “Advanced” then “Upgrade to yearly billing”
You can only switch from monthly to yearly via dashboard. To switch from yearly to monthly, contact hi@cursor.com.
