How to change your LinkedIn ads billing from invoice to credit card

This guide explains how to transition your LinkedIn ad account billing from monthly invoicing to a credit card, and how to ensure you have the correct billing access to get it sorted.

Who is this for?

Clients who currently receive monthly invoices from LinkedIn but need to switch to direct credit card payments due to strict internal finance requirements, outdated company details on the invoice, or general convenience.

Prerequisites: checking your access

Before you can update billing methods, you need to have billing admin access to the specific LinkedIn ad account or the overarching LinkedIn business manager account.

  • How to check: Navigate to your LinkedIn campaign manager. If you cannot access the "billing centre" under your account settings, you do not have billing admin rights.

  • How to get access: Reach out to a current super admin or billing admin on the account (such as your agency account manager) to upgrade your permissions.

Step-by-step: switching to credit card payments

Step 1: log in to LinkedIn campaign manager

Go to your campaign manager dashboard and select the specific ad account you want to update.

Step 2: navigate to the billing centre

Click on the gear icon (settings) in the navigation menu, and select billing centre.

Step 3: add a new payment method

Click on manage payment methods and then add credit card. Enter your corporate credit card details, billing address, and save.

Step 4: stop the invoicing line of credit (crucial)

Note: if your account is currently set up on a formal monthly invoicing line of credit, simply adding a credit card will not automatically stop the invoices.

You will need to contact LinkedIn support or your LinkedIn sales representative to officially revoke the monthly invoicing setup and force the account to default to your new credit card.
