LinkedIn Is Introducing a Credit System to Limit Page Follow Invites

Page follow invitation spam can be quite annoying on Linkedin and it looks like they have introduced a simple system to combat that issue. LinkedIn will now gives Page admins 100 ‘credits’ per month to invite connections to follow the Page. One invite equals one credit.

Here’s how invitation credits are used and earned:

• Sending an invitation requires one credit.
• When an invitation is accepted, the credit is earned back and is applied back to the Page’s balance.
• When an invitation is rejected or withdrawn, the credit isn’t earned back. The credit is removed from Page’s balance.

Here’s how the monthly invitation credit limit works:

• The Page invitation credit limit renews on the first day of every month.
• The Page invitation credit limit is shared by all Admins of the Page.
