Setting up a Contract on Upwork

Setting up a contract on Upwork is an easy process once you understand all the steps involved. Here’s a step-by-step guide to get you started:

1. Accepting an Offer

  • Step 1: Once a client has made you an offer, you’ll get a notification on your Upwork profile and through email. Click on the proposal that has the offer.
  • Step 2: Review the offer details such as pay rate, deadline, and project description.
  • Step 3: In case you’re content with the terms of the contract, click on the green ‘Accept Offer’ button in order to set up your contract. In case you’re not, communicate with your client to modify the terms.
  • 2. Contract Room

  • Step 1: Navigate to the “Contract Room”. This can be found under the “Jobs” tab on your Upwork profile.
  • Step 2: Here you’ll be able to see all the details of your contract, including the agreed payment, the deadline for the project and the milestone setup (if applicable).
  • 3. Starting Work

  • Step 1: Start your job on the agreed date and be sure to deliver quality work before the deadline.
  • Step 2: Always communicate with your client through the ‘Message center’ – this ensures all your conversation and details exchanged are recorded in case of any future disputes.
  • Note

    Keep in mind that the key to a successful contract is effective communication and delivering top-quality work on time. Avoid changing the terms of a contract after you’ve agreed and started work, as this may lead to disputes. And always communicate with your client through Upwork; avoid sharing personal contact information in order to maintain professionalism and safety.
