- Go to the Financial tab on your UpWork homepage
- Click on the Withdraw button
- Select Convert Currency
- Enter the amount you want to convert and select the currency you want to convert it to

Once you’ve converted your currency, you can withdraw it to your bank account or PayPal account according to the method and timing that works best for you.
Conclusion
To change currency in UpWork, go to the Financial tab on your homepage, click on the Withdraw button, select Convert Currency, enter the amount you want to convert, select the currency you want to convert it to, and click Convert Currency.
PRO TIP: If you are planning to change the currency in your Upwork account, please be aware that this will result in all current and future contracts being converted to the new currency. This may cause issues with payments if you have any ongoing contracts, so please be sure to discuss this with your clients in advance.
