Cancel Recruiter Lite.
Keep what matters.
Before stopping Recruiter Lite, check what happens to your projects, job postings and InMail. The cancellation affects more than the next bill.
Connect Gmail to get started. You approve each money action.
LinkedIn says only a purchaser admin can cancel Recruiter Lite. In the new experience, open Product settings → Manage Account → LinkedIn Admin Center → Purchases. Select the subscription, choose Cancel subscription and finish the prompts. Read the data consequences first.

Check the product and the consequence.
This guide covers Recruiter Lite. Confirm the exact product on your receipt before following the steps; a different LinkedIn recruiting agreement may have a different billing route.
LinkedIn warns that cancellation permanently removes associated Recruiter Lite data, including projects and job postings. Previously sent InMail responses will no longer be accessible and credits do not move to your personal account. Your personal LinkedIn account is not affected.
Review what your business needs to retain and which permitted records you can preserve before proceeding. Do not treat a later repurchase as a way to restore the old account.
LinkedIn’s Recruiter Lite cancellation guidance ↗Use the purchaser admin’s billing view.
LinkedIn is rolling out Admin Center, so the screens can differ. These are its published steps for the new experience.
- Open Product settings. From the Recruiter Lite homepage, open the menu under your profile picture.
- Go to Manage Account. Choose View LinkedIn Admin Center.
- Find the purchase. In Purchases, select the Recruiter Lite subscription.
- Review and finish. Under Actions, choose Cancel subscription or Cancel free trial and complete the on-screen process.
Write down when paid access ends.
LinkedIn says the subscription ends at the end of the current billing cycle. Record the date shown in your account and save the cancellation confirmation with the last invoice.
If you cannot find Admin Center, use the Existing experience tab in LinkedIn’s instructions or contact Recruiter support. A missing button is a reason to check permissions and the billing route, not proof that renewal is already stopped.
Ask support to resolve any uncertainty.
Before the next bill, check the subscription status again. If the account still appears set to renew, send support the earlier confirmation and ask which additional step is needed.
Please confirm the cancellation status and paid-through date for Recruiter Lite on [account]. I completed the cancellation on [date]. Please confirm whether renewal is off and when the associated recruiting data will be removed.

A few things
before you act.
Does this cancel my personal LinkedIn account?
LinkedIn says Recruiter Lite cancellation does not affect personal LinkedIn data. It does affect the associated recruiting data and InMail access.
Can I restore the old recruiting account by subscribing again?
LinkedIn says a later purchase starts a new account. Review the permanent data consequences before canceling.
What if my product is LinkedIn Recruiter rather than Lite?
Use the terms and support route for that exact purchase. Do not assume the Lite self-service process or timing applies.
