Problem
Freelancers on Upwork use Connects, virtual tokens, to apply for jobs and ad product to promote themselves to clients. Buying Connects, checking their history, and earning free Connects happened on three separate pages, making for a frustrating experience. New freelancers also lacked education around Connects, making it hard to know where to start. Without a central place to manage their Connects, many freelancers applied to fewer jobs and missed opportunities to earn more Connects and build their reputation.
