How do I create another company within my account?
- Go to Account settings (desktop) or Settings (mobile app) › My info
- Scroll down to the account section and click Create New Account
- Choose New Client Account and fill out the form
When should I create another company within my account?
If you are hiring on behalf of multiple businesses (like your day job and a personal venture), you should create another company instead of another team. However, companies can’t be combined later, so don’t create another one unless you are absolutely certain this is what you need.
How do I switch between client profiles within my main account?
- Go to the dropdown menu under your profile pic
- Scroll down to the “Switch accounts” section (desktop or mobile web) or click on “More accounts” (mobile app)
- Select the other account profile you want
How do multiple companies work?
- You’ll still only have one main account with one login and one email for Upwork notifications
- Each company will be a completely separate client account profile within that main account, and you'll switch between them in the dropdown menu under your profile picture
- You will have separate payment methods, reports, jobs, and work histories for each company, and these can’t be shared across companies
