Does UpWork give free connects?

Last updated on September 24, 2022 @ 8:42 pm

UpWork gives employees a limited number of free connects each month. This number is reset each month, and employees can only use the free connects during the first two weeks of the month.

After that, they are charged $5/month for each additional connect. This means that if you use up your free connects in the first two weeks of the month, you will have to pay $10/month for the rest of the month.

PRO TIP: No, Upwork does not give free connects. If you see a job posting that says otherwise, it is likely a scam.

Many employees find this to be a limiting factor, as it can be difficult to use up all of your free connects in the first two weeks. Additionally, it can be difficult to find work that requires more than the initial two free connects.

This means that, for many employees, the $5/month charge for additional connects is a major deterrent to using UpWork.
