Upwork Agency

[shakeelfarooqi]

Hi there,I have a Freelance Account with Upwork. I want to convert my Freelancer Account to Agency Account. My question is who can be added as a member of the Agency?

1. An approved Upwork account holder as a Freelancer at Upwork

or

2. I may select anybody suitable from my own setup to be a member of the Agency at Upwork?

If the answer to my point No. 2 is NO then please close my Agency created today. I would encourage my business team to get their individual account approved from Upwork then we may apply for the Agency Account again.

Thank you.

Hi Shakeel,

You need to connect with freelancers outside the platform and once they agree to join your agency and provide their email address, you can use it to invite them to join your agency on Upwork. You can find more information and instructions here.

Thank you!
