Last updated: 3 weeks ago

If you pay with SEPA Direct Debit, your recurring premium subscription will start immediately. Payment processing should be completed in approximately 7 to 10 business days, at which point you'll receive an email notification confirming the payment has successfully been completed.

Free trials and monthly subscriptions

  • Free trials: LinkedIn offers a free trial that allows members to explore Premium features at no cost. Trial eligibility and duration may vary based on regional availability or promotional terms. At the end of the trial period, unless canceled beforehand, the subscription will automatically convert to a paid plan. 
  • Reminder emails: We will send an email reminder to the primary email address on your LinkedIn account prior to the end of your free trial for the subscription purchased via LinkedIn desktop site. 
  • Stop recurring payments: If you wish to stop the recurring payment, you'll have to cancel your subscription prior to the end of your billing due date. 
  • Declined payments: In the event that a SEPA direct debit payment is declined, you'll be notified via email and will have an additional 7 days following the billing due date to update your payment method with a credit card. SEPA direct debit payment will no longer be available as a payment method at this point, but you'll be able to use it for other transactions, if applicable.
