upwork deduction

Why Upwork deducted me 20% even if I'm a rising talent before I got my first contract?

Why would they make an exception for you? The standard fees apply and were made perfectly clear when you accepted the contract.

 

The fee on your contract has already dropped to 10%.

You're probably confused because one of the perks of having the rising talent badge is 

  • Reduced fees (starting at 10%) on Featured Jobs.

but your job wasn't a Featured Job Post so there is no reduction in the initial 20%.

 

You recognize those because they have a blue badge
