Free UX Designer Quote Template
UX designers quote upfront because discovery work, wireframing, and testing are distinct phases with very different time costs. A quote makes clear what phase the client is commissioning and what they will receive at the end of it.

How does a UX designer write a quote?
A UX design quote sets out the planned work and the fee before it starts, such as discovery and research, a wireframe set, and usability testing. List each deliverable, the number of screens, and the included revisions, and note what added scope would cost. The fee is an estimate until accepted.
Typical line items
- Discovery and user research (2 weeks)
- Wireframe set (10 key screens)
- Usability testing and report
- Information architecture and flows
- Prototype and interaction design
- Revision rounds included
- Participant recruitment (separate)
- Number of screens or flows
How the work is charged
UX designers usually quote a fixed fee per phase or for the project, scaled to the number of screens, with research and testing itemised. Open-ended discovery may carry a day rate.
Payment terms and deposits
A quote often proposes a deposit before work begins, with stage payments at research, wireframes, and testing. The fee holds for a stated period and is an estimate until accepted, so note what added screens would add.
Tax and compliance
If you are registered for sales tax or VAT, show it as a separate line with your registration number. Confirm the tax treatment that applies to design services where you work.
Frequently asked questions
How much does a UX designer charge per project?
UX design engagements typically run €1,500 to €8,000 for a defined scope. A discovery sprint (user interviews, journey mapping) costs €1,200 to €2,500. A full wireframe set for a 10-screen app runs €600 to €1,500. Full end-to-end UX, from research to tested prototypes, starts at €4,000.
What should a UX design quote include?
List each deliverable: research findings report, user personas, journey maps, wireframe screens, prototype link, usability test report. Specify the number of screens and rounds of revisions. If you're using a tool like Figma, state whether the client receives full file access or export only.
How long is a UX design quote valid for?
Most UX designers set quotes valid for 30 days. Rates and availability change, so a shorter window protects you. If a client comes back 60 days later, you're entitled to requote. Put the expiry date clearly on the quote.
