How much is Sales Navigator?

Sales Navigator Core costs US$119.99 a month or US$1,079.88 a year per seat, Advanced costs US$159.99 a month or US$1,799.88 a year per seat, and Advanced Plus is priced by quote, as listed on LinkedIn's compare plans page on November 8, 2026. Those are US dollar prices before VAT or GST, and LinkedIn says actual prices can vary by currency and device.

Annual billing is where the savings are: it takes Core to the equivalent of US$89.99 a month. Every plan includes the same 50 InMail credits a month, so the price difference between plans buys search, alerts, and team features. If you are still deciding whether you need a seat at all, start with what LinkedIn Sales Navigator does.

  • Unused credits carry over up to a total of 150 and must be used within 90 days.

  • You cannot buy extra InMail credits, and they do not transfer if you cancel or change plans.

From LinkedIn's compare plans table on November 8, 2026. Account IQ and Lead IQ are ticked on every plan in that table, though the product page lists Account IQ under Advanced and Advanced Plus. A dedicated account team is included on Advanced and Advanced Plus when bought through a LinkedIn sales rep.

Sales Navigator free trial

LinkedIn offers a free trial of Core and Advanced. Advanced Plus is bought through LinkedIn's sales team, and LinkedIn lists no trial for it. Per LinkedIn's pricing FAQ and billing help page (checked November 8, 2026):

  • The trial becomes a paid subscription on the billing date, one month after you start it.
  • You need a payment method to start. LinkedIn emails a reminder seven days before the trial ends, though purchases made on Android get no email reminder.
  • You are only eligible if you have no paid LinkedIn subscription, Premium included, and have not used a LinkedIn free trial in the past 365 days.
  • To avoid a charge, cancel at least one day before the renewal date. Ending a trial early removes access right away.
  • Trial availability and features can vary by plan and region.

To get real value from a month, set up an account list and two or three saved searches on day one, then use the alerts every morning. That tells you quickly whether you will use the seat or just the search.

How to get a Sales Navigator discount

  • Pay annually. On Core this is a 25% saving, US$360 a year per seat. On Advanced it is only 6%, so annual billing matters most on Core.
  • Check the checkout price. LinkedIn says its listed prices may exclude promotional discounts and vary slightly by device, so compare the price on desktop and in the app before you buy.
  • Buy only the seats that get used. You can buy up to five Advanced seats online, and an admin assigns them in the LinkedIn Admin Center, so move an idle seat to whoever is prospecting before buying another.
  • Negotiate team deals. Advanced Plus pricing depends on team size, CRM integration, and onboarding, so larger teams set price with LinkedIn's sales team. Ask for a multi-year or multi-seat rate there.
  • Don't pay for exports. If most of the value is in pulling lists, a people search API or data provider can cost less than a seat. See Sales Navigator alternatives.

Which Sales Navigator plan fits which team

Core fits a founder or a single rep who prospects by hand and does not need to share lists. It has the full search and the same InMail allowance as the other plans, which makes it the best value per seat.

Advanced fits a sales team of two or more that shares account lists and wants TeamLink to find warm paths through colleagues. If your reps rarely ask each other for intros, Core on annual billing is cheaper and gives up little.

Advanced Plus fits a larger team that lives in Salesforce, HubSpot, Dynamics, or Oracle and wants Sales Navigator data and lead creation inside the CRM. Budget for a sales conversation and an onboarding period.

If the plan you are weighing is mostly about getting LinkedIn data out, read LinkedIn scrapers and LinkedIn's rules first. Outreach from the list is a separate cost: LinkedIn automation tools and Clay pricing cover the tools most teams add next.
