## How to edit or reconnect your LinkedIn account

**Last updated:  Feb,19th, 2026**

An active LinkedIn profile helps sellers verify your identity before approving access to their private listing details. Adding a working LinkedIn URL to your profile only takes a moment, and if you don't have a LinkedIn account, you can create one for free. 

Buyers without a LinkedIn profile or with a broken link will be rejected. Please follow the instructions below to update your LinkedIn details on Acquire.com.

While these instructions use screenshots from the buyer side of Acquire.com, the steps are the same for sellers who want to connect their LinkedIn accounts. 

1\. Click the **Profile** icon in the top right corner of the screen.

2\. In the dropdown box, click **Profile.**
