How to cancel LinkedIn Premium

Updated 2026-07-09 · GhostSubs guides

LinkedIn Premium is one of the most expensive common subscriptions — which makes its auto-renewing free trial particularly costly to forget. Most cancellations here are people racing a trial deadline; the good news is the cancel flow is quick once you find it.

Cancel on the LinkedIn website. If you subscribed through the iOS or Android app, the subscription may live in your app store instead.

Cancel LinkedIn Premium

  1. Open Premium settings. On linkedin.com, click your profile photo (Me) → Settings & Privacy → "Account preferences" → Subscriptions & payments. Or click "Premium" in the nav and open the subscription management page.
  2. Manage the subscription. Click "Manage Premium account" → "Cancel subscription".
  3. Click through the offers. LinkedIn typically counters with a discount or pause. Continue to "Confirm cancel". Premium features last until the end of the billing period or trial.
  4. App-store billing. If you don't see a cancel option, check iOS Settings → Subscriptions or Play Store → Subscriptions — mobile signups often bill there.

Trial timing

LinkedIn charges the annual or monthly fee the moment the trial ends, and the first charge can be substantial on annual billing. Cancel at least 24 hours before the trial's end date; you keep Premium features for the remainder of the trial anyway.

Frequently asked questions

If I cancel my trial early, do I lose Premium immediately?

No — you keep Premium until the trial's original end date, so there's no reason to wait until the last day.

Will I lose my connections or profile?

No. Premium is a feature layer; your profile, connections, and messages are untouched.

Can I get a refund on an annual plan that just renewed?

LinkedIn's refund policy is strict, but contacting support promptly after an unwanted renewal sometimes succeeds — and app-store-billed renewals can be refunded through Apple or Google.
