Can I Delete Profile in UpWork?

Last updated on September 30, 2022 @ 9:41 pm

If you’re no longer using your UpWork account, you may be wondering if you can delete your profile. The answer is yes, you can delete your profile on UpWork. However, there are a few things to keep in mind before doing so.

First and foremost, if you have any outstanding contracts with clients on UpWork, you will need to cancel those contracts before deleting your profile. Once a contract is canceled, all payments will be released and the client will no longer have access to your account. If you have any disputes with clients, those will also need to be resolved before deleting your profile.

PRO TIP: If you delete your profile in Upwork, your account will be permanently closed and you will no longer be able to access your account, data, or any earnings.

Secondly, if you have any money in your UpWork account, you will need to withdraw that before deleting your profile. Money can be withdrawn via PayPal or direct deposit to a bank account. Once your account is deleted, there is no way to access any money that may be left in it.

Finally, if you have any feedback from clients on your profile, that feedback will be lost when you delete your profile. If you’re planning on reactivating your account at some point, keep this in mind as it may take some time to build up that feedback again.

All things considered, deleting your UpWork profile is fairly simple and straightforward. Just be sure to cancel any outstanding contracts, withdraw any funds from your account, and resolve any disputes before doing so.
