LinkedIn Premium in India: plans, your real price and cancelling

The price on the checkout screen is the one you will pay, including any trial or discount you qualify for. Comparing monthly against annual billing there is the only reliable way to see what you would save by paying for a year.

LinkedIn's help centre lists four Premium plans for individuals and companies. Sales Navigator and Recruiter Lite are sold as separate products for sales and hiring teams. Pick on what you need in the next few months; you can switch plans later.

LinkedIn's help pages are specific about the trial:

• Not everyone qualifies. Eligibility depends partly on whether you have had a Premium trial before, and length can vary by region or promotion.
• It turns into a paid plan. Unless you cancel, the trial converts to a paid subscription when it ends.
• Cancelling early ends access immediately. Unlike a paid plan, you lose Premium features the moment you end a trial.
• There's a cooldown. After cancelling a trial, you can't start another free trial for at least 12 months.

Set a reminder a couple of days before the trial ends so you can decide with time to spare.

Cancel at least one day before your billing date to avoid another charge. On a paid plan you keep Premium until the end of the current billing cycle. If you bought Premium directly from LinkedIn on desktop: open the Me menu, choose Premium features, select Manage subscription under Plan details, then in the Admin Center go to Purchases, choose your subscription and select Cancel subscription under Actions. In the app: tap your profile photo, Premium features, Manage your subscription, then Cancel subscription. Where to cancel depends on how you paid:

Most people use Premium in bursts: a job search, a hiring round or a sales push. The cheapest habit is to subscribe when the burst starts and cancel when it ends, rather than letting it renew for a year you won't use. Our Is LinkedIn Premium worth it? page helps you decide, and cheapest LinkedIn Premium covers the ways to pay less. Subspace has no active LinkedIn Premium groups right now; LinkedIn's own terms apply to how an account is used.
