Hi all,
You can turn the Availability Badge on and off as needed to signal when you're ready to take on new clients. Clients will see your badge in search results, recommendations, and on your profile. They can also use an "Available now" filter to see who has the badge on when they’re inviting freelancers to submit a proposal, which can show you’re ready and eager for new work.
Turning on the Availability Badge is a way to use your Connects to control your workflow and manage your time. The weekly price of the badge may fluctuate, but you control how your Connects are used, so you determine the maximum number you’d like to spend in a week. If at any point the cost of the badge exceeds what you’ve set as your maximum, we will turn the badge off automatically. You will not be charged a weekly rate more than what you’ve set as your maximum.
Please keep in mind that you profile will need to be public in order to turn the Availability Bagde on. If your profile is locked private because of inactivity, you can request that your profile visibility is reset by clicking this link found in this help article.
I am not able to turn on the availability badge, what wrong here, I have connects as well
Hello Parth,
Thank you for reaching out to us. I would be happy to help. Based on the screenshot you shared, it seems that the Availability Badge isn't turning on because the current price to activate it is 14 Connects. To resolve this, you may want to try and input 14 in the number field, just like what Obed suggested. Let us know if you need further assistance.
You can find more information about Availability Badge in this help article.
