Platforms
Freelancer accounts
Bids are already metered
The platform meters bids itself: a membership decides how many you get in a month, and running out is a slow, expensive kind of mistake.
Ten a day is what fits under most of those allowances while leaving room for a week that is not all Monday.
The app does not count bids: the profile card gives them their own ceiling beside messages and profile edits, and the only shared daily count is the pages opened.
One account per person
Duplicate accounts are suspended here, and the suspension usually reaches the older account as well as the new one.
What a profile is for instead: a recruiter and a working freelancer in one household sharing a computer, a team where each member holds their own account, or simply a work session that does not live in your personal browser.
Each of those is a case where the sessions must not mix, and none of them asks the platform to look the other way.
Ceilings on bids and messages
Contests and open projects reward speed, and speed is what turns a working day into something a moderator flags.
These numbers sit on the profile card in Grid view, under "Safe daily ceiling", and each row shows its threshold there as a number: a ceiling of 10 with a 60% threshold reads "warning at 6". The app does not count actions on the platform and blocks nothing, so this is guidance and the decision is yours.
| Action | A day | Warning at |
|---|---|---|
| Proposals (bids) | 10 | 60% |
| Messages | 25 | 75% |
| New gigs | 3 | 67% |
| Profile edits | 5 | 60% |
| Payout edits | 1 | 99% |
| Account switches | 1 | 99% |
First week of a new account
A new account starts at eight pages a day and reaches forty on the seventh, and the bid and message ceilings are cut by the same ramp in those days.
The steps are fractions of the scenario ceiling, so the whole week moves when that ceiling moves.
| Day | Pages a day |
|---|---|
| Day 1 | 8 |
| Day 2 | 14 |
| Day 3 | 20 |
| Day 4 | 26 |
| Day 5 | 32 |
| Day 6 | 36 |
| Day 7 and after | 40 |
One payout edit a day
Milestones sit in escrow until work is accepted, and the account that changes its withdrawal details while money is held is the one a risk team opens first.
So the ceiling is one payout edit a day with a 99 percent threshold, which the profile card shows as "warning at 1": the strictest pair of numbers in this scenario.
Account switching sits beside it at one a day too, because two accounts opened from one machine in one day is the exact shape of a duplicate.
What the rules actually say
The terms cover one account per person, bid allowances by membership and what taking a contract off the platform costs you.
Read them before you plan around them. We link them rather than paraphrase them, because they change and our paraphrase would go stale.
What this does not do
- It does not give you a second account. The platform expects one per person and suspends duplicates, and we will not sell a way around a written rule.
- It does not add bids to your membership. The platform's allowance is its own and our ceiling sits under it.
- It does not transfer reviews or a completion rate to another account.
- It does not hide a payout destination shared between two accounts.

Questions
- Why is the bid ceiling lower than my membership?
- Because a membership counts a month and a reputation counts a day. Ten considered bids beat forty copies of the same paragraph.
- Can two people in one home use the platform?
- Yes, and that is the case a profile per account was made for. Two accounts from one address answer better when they are not also one browser.
- Does the exit address need to stay fixed?
- It needs to stay consistent with the account. The profile takes its clock and language list from the exit country, so they agree instead of contradicting each other.
- Do scheduled runs get their own allowance?
- No. A scheduled flow spends the same page count as your own clicking, and nothing stops it.
- What happens when a ceiling is reached?
- Nothing is blocked. Each action's ceiling and threshold sit on the profile card, and the app does not count the actions themselves. What it counts is pages opened: the Safe pace bar turns amber at 80% of the day's number and red at 100%, and the decision stays yours.
One account one profile
