I just got Rising Talent status today and the badge appears in my profile but I did not receive the extra 30 connects that was supposed to come with it. Does it take a few days for that to show up or is there someone I need to contact.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi Sanja,
The bonus connects will be automatically added to your account within 48 hours from the time you received your badge. If after 48 hours, the bonus connects are not added, please let us know. Thanks!

I have passed upwork readiness test but didn't receive free connects why?

Hi Jitender,
I would like to clarify that you're an exclusive member of the Agency and as an exclusive member, you can only use the Connects from the Agency.
Freelancers who are part of agencies as non-exclusive member are able to send proposals under their freelancer profile and for the agency as well. In any case, as you have successfully completed the test before Dec. 1, 2020, you are not eligible for these free Connects. Thank you.

Hi Fizza,
Thank you for your message. Please allow 24-48 hours for the free Connects to be credited to your Upwork account.
Thank you,
