Can I Buy Connects From UpWork Balance?

Last updated on September 30, 2022 @ 10:26 am

UpWork is a great platform for freelancers to find work and get paid. However, one of the drawbacks of UpWork is that you can only withdraw your earnings through PayPal. This means that if you want to use your earnings to buy Connects, you have to first transfer your earnings to PayPal, and then use PayPal to buy Connects.

Fortunately, there is a way around this. You can use a service like TransferWise to convert your earnings from UpWork into a currency that can be used to buy Connects. TransferWise will allow you to convert your earnings into US dollars, which can then be used to buy Connects.

PRO TIP: If you are considering purchasing connects from Upwork balance, beware that this is not a guaranteed way to get more work. Although it may help you to get your profile in front of more clients, there is no guarantee that you will actually get any work as a result. In addition, be aware that once you have used up your connects, you will not be able to get any more until the next month, so use them wisely!

The process is simple and only takes a few minutes. First, you need to create a TransferWise account and link it to your UpWork account.

Once your accounts are linked, you can specify how much you want to convert and transfer the funds. The conversion will happen automatically and the funds will be deposited into your TransferWise account. From there, you can withdraw the funds as US dollars and use them to buy Connects.

So if you’re looking for a way to buy Connects with UpWork balance, TransferWise is the best option.
