How to cancel LinkedIn Premium

LinkedIn publicly documents cancellation paths for Premium subscriptions bought directly from LinkedIn, through the Apple App Store, and through Google Play. LinkedIn says paid Premium plans remain active until the end of the current billing cycle after cancellation, while free Premium trials end immediately. The main proof issue is confirming who billed the subscription and capturing the final cancellation state before the next scheduled billing date.

Cancellation steps

  1. Confirm the purchase source first

    Start by checking whether Premium was purchased directly through LinkedIn, through the Apple App Store, or through Google Play. LinkedIn says the cancellation steps vary based on the original purchase method, so capture the billing source, plan name, next scheduled billing date, and any receipt or app-store subscription screen before changing anything.

  2. Use LinkedIn's Premium cancellation page for direct purchases

    For Premium purchased directly from LinkedIn on desktop or mobile web, LinkedIn points users to the Premium cancellation page from its public help article. The related cancellation FAQ says direct LinkedIn purchases can be canceled from the LinkedIn desktop website or through the LinkedIn mobile app on Android.

  3. Cancel Apple App Store purchases from an Apple device

    LinkedIn says Premium purchased on an Apple device through the Apple App Store can be canceled using the LinkedIn mobile app on an Apple device. LinkedIn's Apple-specific help article lists the path as profile photo, Premium features, Manage your subscription, Cancel subscription, then follow the prompts. LinkedIn also says Apple handles billing support and refund requests for App Store purchases.

  4. Use LinkedIn or Google Play paths for Google Play purchases

    For Premium purchased on Android through Google Play, LinkedIn says cancellation can be completed through the LinkedIn desktop site, LinkedIn mobile app, Google Play desktop, or Google Play mobile app. LinkedIn's Google Play help article describes a LinkedIn desktop path through Me, Premium features, Subscription details, LinkedIn Admin Center, Purchases, the active subscription, Cancel subscription, and Confirm cancel.

  5. Review timing and refund language before confirming

    LinkedIn says paid Premium plans stay active until the end of the current billing cycle after cancellation, while free trials end immediately. LinkedIn also says users should cancel at least one day before the next scheduled billing date to avoid another charge. For refunds, LinkedIn's public refund policy says Premium subscriptions may be refundable within 7 days from the date charged without premium usage, and iOS refunds must be issued by Apple.

  6. Continue until there is explicit confirmation

    Do not treat a manage-subscription page, downgrade prompt, retention offer, closed browser tab, or app uninstall as proof that billing stopped. The useful endpoint is a LinkedIn, Apple, or Google confirmation screen or email that shows the subscription, cancellation status, effective date, and any refund or final-charge result.

Common pitfalls

  • LinkedIn Premium, LinkedIn Learning, Sales Navigator, Recruiter Lite, and Premium Company Page can have different cancellation articles or account areas. Confirm the exact paid product before following a generic Premium path.
  • A paid Premium subscription may continue until the end of the current billing cycle after cancellation. A free Premium trial ends immediately, according to LinkedIn's public help page.
  • LinkedIn says cancellation should happen at least one day before the next scheduled billing date to avoid another billing cycle.
  • If Premium was purchased through the Apple App Store, LinkedIn says Apple handles billing support and refund requests. A LinkedIn account screen alone may not be enough proof for an Apple-billed dispute.
  • Deleting or closing a LinkedIn account is not the same as canceling an active subscription. LinkedIn's Apple-specific help article says an active subscription must be canceled before closing a personal LinkedIn account.

What to capture as proof

  • The active Premium product name, billing source, next scheduled billing date, price, and account identifier shown in LinkedIn, Apple, Google Play, or receipts.
  • The LinkedIn Premium cancellation page, Premium features page, Subscription details page, LinkedIn Admin Center purchase screen, or app-store subscription screen before cancellation.
  • Any screen that states whether the subscription is direct-billed by LinkedIn, Apple App Store-billed, or Google Play-billed.
  • Any refund, renewal, free-trial, remaining-access, or final-charge language shown before confirmation.
  • Retention offers, downgrade options, errors, missing cancellation buttons, support-contact messages, or instructions to switch to Apple or Google.
  • The final cancellation confirmation page, email, Apple subscription status, Google Play status, or support message showing the effective cancellation date.
