Working as an employee of a company

[#1]

Hello everyone,

I am creating a company with someone else. I would like to work on Upwork for the company that I will co-own. Basically I want that my company provides the service to Upwork, not me directly to Upwork.

Is it possible? I don't want to receive upwork money for me, but for the company that I will own.

Thanks

Raphael

Hi Raphael,

Although your profile itself needs to be in your name, you can include your company name in your profile and in your settings (under "Tax Information"), and use your company's tax ID, as well.  If your "business name" is different from your personal name in your account information, then your business name also appears on your invoices to your clients.  You could also create an agency in your company's name if you wanted to. 

An agency is a business that sells the services of multiple freelancers on Upwork. We've created a guide to agencies to help you decide if an agency is right for you. You can also check out this help article to learn more about agencies. To create an agency account on your existing account, please follow up instructions in this help article.

Thank you!
