Amount in escrow

Hi there,

My client is new to Upwork.

She said she wanted to create a milestone of 50 USD but all I see is 20 USD in escrow in the offer.

Does it mean I will only receive 20 USD?

Does she have to create a new milestone with the proper amount?

Thanks,

Leyre

Here's how Upwork works: a client must FULLY fund the milestone for work that she wants done.

Simply ask your client to withdraw that one and.send another contract with the full amount funded.

If you do $50 work when only $20 is funded, Upwork cannot guarantee payment of the remaining sum!

Stay safe!
