In this article, we will show you the steps on how to disconnect/remove an active seat from a LinkedIn account or transfer it to another LinkedIn account from the LinkedIn settings page on Expandi.
Keep in mind, that if you are disconnecting an active seat from a LinkedIn account this only disconnects/removes an active seat from a LinkedIn account, this will not cancel the seat. If you wish to cancel the seat (so you wouldn't need to pay for it anymore) this has to be done in the Subscriptions & Payments section.
The transfer option is suggested in cases when a LinkedIn account is no longer usable or has been restricted, and you would rather use that purchased seat on another LinkedIn account. In this case, you can simply disconnect that seat from a current LinkedIn account and assign it (transfer) to a new one. Transfer is also possible on the Subscriptions & Payments page, please learn more about it here!

How to disconnect an active seat from a LinkedIn account?
Go to the LinkedIn settings of a LinkedIn account that you wish to disconnect an active seat from:
In the LinkedIn settings page, click on the Disconnect LinkedIn Account menu option:
On the Disconnect LinkedIn account page, click on the Disconnect account button:
In the pop-up window, you'll see if the account you wish to remove/disconnect the active seat for has any active campaigns or searches created at the moment. Once the active seat is disconnected from it, you won't have access to those campaigns or searches unless you add an active seat for the account again and activate it.
Next to the Disconnect button, you will also notice the Transfer to another subscription button available. This option can be used if you'd like instead of disconnecting the seat from this LinkedIn account to transfer that seat to another LinkedIn account you manage, that currently doesn't have an active seat connected to it. If you click on this option, you'll be able to select a LinkedIn account that is currently inactive and transfer the seat to that LinkedIn account.
If you made up your mind and wish to continue with disconnecting the active seat from the account instead of transferring the seat, click on the Disconnect button:
Once it's done, you'll see a notification that an active seat was disconnected/removed from this LinkedIn account. This means that this LinkedIn account doesn't have an active subscription at the moment.
Keep in mind, that this action only disconnected the active seat from this LinkedIn account. If you wish to stop paying for this seat, please go to the Subscriptions & Payments section to remove the seat from there, so you won't need to pay for it anymore.
