Client Login Page

 

EDIT:

 

Please disregard, I didn't know how to solve it with Chrome but using Firefox works for me.

 

ORIGINAL MESSAGE:

 

Hi all,

 

Could someone please let me know which page I should use to log into my client account? I am both a freelancer and a client. I've created a client account and was able to use it only once (right after I created it). These are the things I have tried:

 

- Type Upwork.com on my browser (Chrome) and it send me to https://www.upwork.com/ab/find-work/ which is the freelancer's page.

 

- Log out of my account, go to https://www.upwork.com/login, type in my login information, and it will also send me to https://www.upwork.com/ab/find-work/, which is the freelancer's page.

 

- When I am logged in (as the freelancer), click on my avatar at the top right corner dropdown menu, click on the name of the client company I created, it sends me to this page: https://www.upwork.com/ab/jobs-home/4319793. On the page there is only one line of text read "This page is for clients only".

 

I wouldn't want to create a new client account just to be able to use it only once. Thank you very much in advance.

Hi Phat,

 

Glad to hear you were able to navigate to your client profile, please let us know if you need further assistance.

I have the same question. I am not a freelancer but upwork keeps sending me to "create a profile" page. I have no interest in this and there is no option to log in as a client again. How to fix this?

Hi Julian, 

It looks like you may have requested to create a freelancer account which is why you are being redirected to complete an Upwork freelancer profile. I'll go ahead and close the freelancer context of your Upwork profile so that you can access your client account.

Hi,

 

I too need the freelance part of my account removed. I only need to be a client.

 

Thanks!

Hi Rex,

 

Your freelancer profile is now closed as per your request. Let us know if you need further assistance.

 

Thank you.

I want to post a job but got a 403 error, I wanna keep my freelancer account besides my client account.

Hi Ashraf,

 

I checked your account, and it looks like you have signed up for a freelancer account. If you'd like to hire freelancers for your project, you'll need to have a client account. You can be a client and a freelancer on Upwork, and switch between accounts as needed. Since you already have a freelancer account, please create a client account following the steps below:

 

  1. Go to Settings  My Teams and choose the Create New Account button at the bottom.
  2. Choose New Client Account
  3. Once set up, use the account menu at the top-right of your screen to switch between using Upwork as a client, freelancer, or agency

Here's the help article for more information.

I just tried the method described above, but I couldn't find a place to add a client account to my freelancing account. 

Thank you for your attention.

Hi Lee,

 

I'm sorry if the steps Joanne shared above confused you. You should be able to create a client account by going to Settings > Contact Info and clicking on "New Client Account". Don't hesitate to let us know if you need further assistance.

To create a client account, please follow the steps below:

 

  1. Go to Settings  Contact Info and choose the Create New Account button in the second section
  2. Choose New Client Account

Hey, what I need to do if i want to be a client and freelancer in the same time?

Hi Ruslan,

 

You can be a freelancer, agency, and a client on Upwork. You will use the same account to log in to Upwork but will have separate user profiles. I see that this account that you used to post in the community is a freelancer account. You can create an agency or a client account by following the steps shared on this help article

 

I would also like to request that you please update your profile picture. You will need to use a photo that clearly shows your face. Please check this help article to help you improve your freelancer profile. If there's anything else we can help you, please let us know. Thank you.

Greetings,

 

I can no longer get to my client account! All I get is the "Apply to Join" as a Freelancer page. And I am not looking to join as a freelancer.

 

Will you please delete the incomplete Freelancer account from my profile, so that I can go back to just being a client.

 

Thank you!!
