LinkedIn Premium price at a glance
These are LinkedIn’s published US list prices. Paying for a year up front costs less per month than paying monthly, and prices differ by country and currency, so check the figure shown inside your own account before you subscribe.
| Plan | Paid monthly | Paid annually | Same plan at G2U |
|---|---|---|---|
| Premium Career | about 39.99 USD | about 29.99 USD a month, around 360 USD a year | from 24.99 USD |

Is LinkedIn Premium worth the price
It depends entirely on how much you use it. If you are actively applying for jobs, the InMail credits earn their keep fast, because one direct message to a hiring manager beats ten applications through the normal form. If you are prospecting, Sales Navigator pays for itself with a single closed deal.
What is never worth it is paying full price for a subscription that sits unused. Almost everyone who regrets LinkedIn Premium bought it monthly, forgot about it, and paid for months they never opened. If that sounds like you, buy a short subscription instead of a year.
How to pay less than the standard price
You do not have to pay the list price. G2U supplies the same LinkedIn Premium plans, activated on the LinkedIn account you already use, for a fraction of the standard subscription:
- LinkedIn Premium Career, 24.99 USD for two months or 69 USD for six months.
- LinkedIn Premium Business, 37 USD for two months, 89.99 USD for six months, 130.99 USD for a full year.
- LinkedIn Sales Navigator Core, 50.99 USD for a month.
- LinkedIn Recruiter Lite, from 78 USD for a month.
Look at the table again. A year of Premium Business is around 720 USD direct from LinkedIn. The same twelve months through G2U is 130.99 USD, on the same account, with the same features.
How it works
- Pick the plan and the length you want on the product page.
- Choose the activation link option if you would rather not share your login, or the login option if you prefer our team to handle it.
- Pay by card or PayPal. The activation steps reach your email within minutes.
- Your existing LinkedIn account gets the Premium features for the full period you paid for.
Same subscription, a fraction of the price, activated on your own account.
Before you buy
- Your account must not already have an active Premium subscription when we activate.
- Do not change the country or region of your account during the subscription period.
- The subscription is guaranteed for the period you paid for. If it does not activate, or stops working early, we replace it or refund you.
- G2U is an independent store. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by LinkedIn Corporation.
Questions about the LinkedIn Premium price
Does the price include tax
LinkedIn adds local tax at checkout in most countries, so the amount charged can be higher than the list price shown.
Can I cancel and get a refund
LinkedIn generally does not refund a month that has already started. You keep the features until the end of that billing period.
Is the cheaper subscription the same product
Yes. It is the same LinkedIn Premium plan on your own account, with the same features. What differs is how it is paid for, not what you receive.
How fast is delivery
Most orders are activated within minutes of payment.
