I want to buy upwork connects and Freelancer Plus membership with my upwork balance.

[#1]

Hello UpWork Team!

I want to buy upwork connects as my connects are almost finished. Can I buy upwork connects with my upwork balance? (PS: This will be the first time I am buying upwork connects) 
As for the first time buying connects, is mastercard absolutely necessary? Or I can just simply use my upwork balance to buy connects. 
If yes, I still couldn't find an option to buy connects with my upwork balance. This problem also includes about buying "Freelancer Plus", so both options are not available. 
Anykind of detailed  solution for this problem will be highly appreciated.

Thank you

Hi Abdullah,

You can purchase connects with your Upwork earnings (available earnings). To do this you will need to go to Settings > Membership & Connects > select a bundle > add connects. Thank you.

Thank youy so much Goran, it works.

Can I buy or activate upwork freelancer plus membership like this way if I have sufficient balance? 

Thanks

Hi Abdullah,

Yes you will be able to upgrade to our Plus plan once you have at least $15 available on your account. Thank you.

I tried upgrad to Freelancer Plus membership this way, but it's pull  "Add billing method" drawer. I have sufficient balance in my upwork account.

How can i upgrade to Freelancer Plus membership with my Upwork balance?

Thank you.

Hi Jakir,

I would like to clarify that before purchasing Connects or a membership plan, you’ll need to add a Billing Method to your account. After adding the billing method you can use your Upwork balance to pay for your membership or purchase additional Connects.

You can find more information here.

Hi Mayank,

Thank you for your message. Yes, you can add additional Connects until your available total Connect balance is 200.

Thank you

Hi. I dont have the option to buy connects. Do you know why? 

[#12]

Hi Jeo,

Currently, there is no option to purchase Connects on a Mobile App. You will need to log in to your PC to purchase additional Connects.

Hi Victor,

I can see that you should have the Memberships & Connects on your Settings page. Can you send us a screenshot of the options you see on your end?
