How Do I Pay a Bonus on UpWork?

Last updated on September 30, 2022 @ 11:09 pm

As a freelancer, you have the option to offer a bonus to your clients in addition to your hourly rate. A bonus is a great way to show your appreciation for a project well done, or to incentivize your client to give you more work in the future. Here’s how you can offer a bonus on UpWork:

First, navigate to the My Jobs tab and find the job you’d like to offer a bonus for.

PRO TIP: If you are an employer on Upwork, please be aware that you are not able to pay a bonus to your freelancer through Upwork. Instead, you will need to pay the bonus directly to the freelancer outside of Upwork.

Next, click on the More actions dropdown menu and select Offer bonus.

Enter the amount you’d like to offer and an optional message, then click Send Offer.

Once your client accepts the bonus, it will be added to your milestone payment for that job. If you have any questions about bonuses, feel free to reach out to our support team.
