PAYMENT PENDING ISSUE

Hello upworkers. I'm new at upwork and I completed my first job today but the payment is pending. Is there a problem or what does this mean.

Hi Amschel,

 

I would like to clarify that Pending status represents the standard security hold period in which funds cannot be withdrawn. Payments for fixed-price milestones (and bonuses) have a 5-day security period from the time payment is made to funds availability. 

You can find more information about getting paid for a Fixed Price contract in this help article. Let us know if you have further questions.
