Use commonalities to break the ice

ProBusiness add-on FAQ
What payment methods are available?
You can pay by SEPA direct debit, credit card (Mastercard, Visa or American Express) or PayPal. Once payment for your ProBusiness add-on has been made, the invoice amount will be automatically collected from your bank account/credit card/PayPal account.
What happens if I buy the ProBusiness add-on as a Premium member?
If you're already a Premium member, you'll enter into an additional contract when taking out the ProBusiness add-on. From then on you'll have two subscriptions: Premium and ProBusiness.
Can I submit my ProBusiness add-on fees with my tax return?
XING is a business platform and serves to set up, manage and maintain a network of business contacts. If the platform is used exclusively for professional purposes, the monthly fees paid for Premium membership can be offset as a business-related expense or advertising expense according to German tax law. Please contact your tax consultant for further details. If you also use XING for private purposes, the monthly fees are not tax deductible.
What happens if I buy the ProBusiness add-on as a basic member?
If you're not a Premium member yet, but would like to take advantage of the ProBusiness features (e.g. efficient ways to identify, manage and contact leads), private profile details), you can take out both a Premium membership and the ProBusiness add-on. In this case you'll have two separate contracts and can use both feature sets.
When will I receive my ProBusiness add-on invoice?
Your invoice will be available online by going to "Settings/Invoices & Accounts" (the cogwheel on the top right) -> "Invoices & Accounts" within 24 hours of completing the ProBusiness add-on transaction. The adjacent tab "Billing details" lets you add an e-mail address to which we can also send you your invoice.
What membership types are available?
Basic membership
You'll have access to the basic features of XING, including a profile page and options to connect with people, manage your network and organise events.
Premium membership
Premium membership on XING gives you access to additional features and benefits provided by partners. This is a paid membership.
ProBusiness add-on
ProBusiness is a paid add-on you can take out in addition to your Premium membership. It offers you a number of special features to help you look for, identify and manage business contacts on XING.
What are the cancellation terms?
The ProBusiness add-on is a subscription which, unless cancelled, is automatically renewed for the same term, up to a maximum of 12 months, once the add-on term expires. You can cancel your add-on at any time up to three (3) weeks before the end of the term via the contact form or by sending an e-mail to contact@xing.com. A cancellation would become effective as of the end of your current subscription term.
