FAQ


Can I use the extension with Elite/Gold plans?


Yes! Elite and Gold users can still use the extension for quick boosts directly from LinkedIn. However, you'll get the full feature set (super fast mode, industry targeting, etc.) when using the dashboard.


Do I need the extension for Elite/Gold plans?


No, the extension is not required to sync your posts with Podawaa. Even if you boost from the dashboard, the extension keeps your account connected and your posts synchronized.


Can I upgrade from Pro to Elite?


Absolutely! You can upgrade anytime from your dashboard. The change takes effect immediately, and you'll be charged the prorated difference.


Why can't Gold re-boost the same post?


This is a security measure for Gold accounts. Since Gold offers the highest engagement (250 likes), limiting to one boost per post helps maintain natural engagement patterns and protects your account.
