Hello! I'm considering on applying for the Plus memberhsip, there's something preventing me from it though.

This link states that connects are 0.15 USD each. But on some other sources, it states that they're $1 each. What's the real price of connects?
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi Jorge,
Please, visit your Membership & Connects page in “Settings” and scroll to the section that reads “Membership Connects.” If you are on our basic, free membership plan and have been moved to paid Connects, this will say “0 Connects per month.” In that case, Connects have a monetary value of $0.15 each.
If you haven’t been moved to paid Connects yet it will say “60 Connects per month.”
You can view FAQs about paid Connects and a video explaining the change from our Head of Product, here.
This change started to take effect in May. We anticipate paid Connects will be in place for all freelancers by the end of June. Because this is a big change, we’re rolling it out over several weeks to help ensure a smooth transition.
Thank you.

They used to be $1 if you bought them with the plus membership, now there are no free ones any longer and all cost $0,15.

I bought the Plus membership but it keeps telling me the connects cost $1 each.

Sorry, I didn't read the link you sent me. So during this month the prices of the connects will change from $1 each to 0.15?

Hi Jorge,
You may refer to the changes in connects by referring to this blog post, resource page, these announcements in the Community here, and here, and town hall, which you can access the recording here.
To explain, when you move to the paid Connects, connects will not be sold individually. Bundles begin at $1.50 for 10 Connects. Regardless of which bundle you choose, all Connects are priced at $0.15 apiece. Here are your bundle options:
