Getting Paid

Once the funds are sent to me on upwork, how do I get the funds from upwork?

In a previous thread, you were provided a link to all the information available about getting paid.  

Jennifer's answer fills in the immediate blanks.  If you have a contract in place, your reports tab will give you payment information.

bank transfer or paypal if you have it

When you set up a profile, you also set up payment options.  PayPal, your bank, whatever you chose is where your money goes at the end of the hold period.

Once the money has been released to you from escrow, if it's a fixed-rate job, it goes into your Upwork account. After that, you can withdraw the money to whatever external account you have set up - it could be directly to your bank, via PayPal or skrill etc.

I really do think you ought to read everything about this site before you even start bidding for jobs.

Edited to add:

I'm no longer sure how this works when starting out as a freelancer on Upwork. But you can go to your "settings" (top right-hand corner of your page) and click on it.  You will have to put in your password again and probaly your secret question, then on the left-hand side, scroll down to the menu item "get paid" and when you click on that, the main paragraph should give you "payment method". Add your payment method . . .
