When looking at commissions, be sure to look for a breakdown as to how they are calculated because it does vary across companies so sometimes what sounds like a higher percentage is still a lesser amount of money. You have to consider the business model and other factors around your long term growth beyond the commission as well.

@Jesus Hernandez thank you for confirm! Just wanted to make sure I don’t need to be prepared for an issue!

Anyone else had experience here and want to share? I went through proposals and when I went to message one of them, it was warning me to keep communications in Upwork. I’m a little overwhelmed now with all their warnings and policies: - You can be banned for taking communications out of Upwork - You can be banned for paying outside of upwork - To move a relationship off Upwork, you need to pay a contract conversion fee of 13.4% the estimated annual earning for the job. Can someone specify their workaround?
