If you’re new to UpWork and ready to get started with freelancing, you’ll need to create an account.

Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to do it:

  1. Go to UpWork.com and click “Join as a freelancer” or “Join as a client” in the top right-hand corner.
  2. If you chose “Join as a freelancer,” you’ll be asked to create a profile. You can skip this step for now by clicking “Continue without a profile. “
  3. On the next page, you’ll be asked to select your country and enter your email address and password.
  4. Once you’ve entered all the required information, click “Create account. “
  5. UpWork will then send you an email to verify your account. Click the “Verify email” button in the email and you’ll be taken back to the UpWork website.
  6. Now that your account is verified, you can finish creating your profile by adding a photo, writing a short bio, and selecting your skills.

Creating an UpWork Client Account

Step 1:

Go to UpWork.com and click on the tab that says “join as a client” located at the top right-hand side of the screen.

PRO TIP: If you are thinking about creating a client account on Upwork, there are a few things you should know. First, while Upwork is a great platform for finding and hiring freelancers, it is not free to use. There is a 2.75% fee for all payments made through the site, and this fee can add up quickly if you are working with multiple freelancers or making large payments. Additionally, Upwork charges a 10% fee for all hourly contracts. If you are not careful, these fees can eat into your budget and take away from your bottom line. Finally, when creating a client account on Upwork, be sure to set clear expectations with your freelancers from the start. This will help to avoid any misunderstandings or miscommunication down the road.

Step 2:

Enter in your email address and create a password that is at least 8 characters long with a mix of letters and numbers.

Step 3:

Select your country from the dropdown menu and check off the two boxes below if you would like to receive emails about news, tips, or special events from UpWork.

By following these simple steps, you will have successfully created an UpWork client account!
