MAKING PAYMENTS THROUGH UPWORK Clause Samples

The "Making Payments Through Upwork" clause establishes that all payments between clients and freelancers must be processed exclusively through the Upwork platform. This typically means that clients are required to fund projects and pay for services using Upwork’s payment system, while freelancers receive their earnings through the same channel. By centralizing payments, the clause ensures secure transactions, provides a record of payments for both parties, and helps Upwork enforce its terms and offer dispute resolution services.
MAKING PAYMENTS THROUGH UPWORK. You acknowledge and agree that a substantial portion of the compensation Upwork receives for making the Site available to you is collected through the Service Fee described in Section 5.1. Upwork only receives this Service Fee when a Client and a Freelancer pay and receive payment through the Site. Therefore, for 24 months from the time you identify or are identified by any party through the Site (the “Non-Circumvention Period”), you agree to use the Site as your exclusive method to request, make, and receive all payments for work directly or indirectly with that party or arising out of your relationship with that party (the “Upwork Relationship”). For the avoidance of doubt, if you, or the business you represent, did not identify and were not identified by another party through the Site, such as if you and another User worked together before meeting on the Site, then the Non-Circumvention Period does not apply. If you use the Site as an employee, agent, or representative of another business, then the Non-Circumvention Period applies to you and other employees, agents, or representatives of the business when acting in that capacity with respect to the other User. Except if you pay the Opt-Out Fee (see Section 7.2), you agree not to circumvent the Payment Methods offered by the Site. By way of illustration and not in limitation of the foregoing, you agree not to: Submit proposals or solicit parties identified through the Site to contract, hire, work with, or pay outside the Site. Accept proposals or solicit parties identified through the Site to contract, invoice, or receive payment outside the Site. Invoice or report on the Site or in an Opt-Out Fee request an invoice or payment amount lower than that actually agreed between Users. Refer a User you identified on the Site to a third-party who is not a User of the Site for purposes of making or receiving payments off the Site. You agree to notify Upwork immediately if a person suggests to you making or receiving payments outside of the Site in violation of this Section 7.1. If you are aware of a breach or potential breach of this non-circumvention agreement, please submit a confidential report to Upwork by sending an email message to: ▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇▇▇@▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇. If you refuse to accept any new version of the Terms of Service or elect not to comply with certain conditions of using the Site, such as minimum rates supported on the Site, and therefore choose to cease using the Site, you may pay the Opt- Out Fee f...

  • Pass-Through Expenses (a) If a Work Order provides that a Pass-Through Expense is to be paid by LAUSD directly, Contractor will promptly provide LAUSD with the original third-party invoice for the Pass-Through Expense. If a Work Order provides that a Pass- Through Expense is to be paid by Contractor, Contractor will act as payment agent for LAUSD and will pay third-party charges comprising the Pass-Through Expense. For each Pass-Through Expense, Contractor will review the corresponding invoiced charges to determine whether the charges are proper and valid and should be paid, and will provide LAUSD with a statement to that effect. Where Contractor is paying a Pass-Through Expense on LAUSD's behalf, Contractor will provide LAUSD with a reasonable opportunity to review the applicable invoice. Following this review, Contractor will pay the amounts due and will invoice LAUSD for the charges. (b) Contractor will use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize Pass-Through Expenses. With respect to services or materials paid for on a Pass-Through Expense basis, LAUSD reserves the right to: (i) obtain these services or materials directly from a third party; (ii) designate the third party source for these services or materials; (iii) designate the particular services or materials (e.g., equipment make and model) that Contractor will obtain, provided that if Contractor demonstrates to LAUSD that this designation will have an adverse impact on Contractor’s ability to meet applicable service levels, this designation will be subject to Contractor’s approval; (iv) require Contractor to identify and consider multiple sources for these services or materials or to conduct a competitive procurement; and (v) review and approve the Pass-Through Expense for these services or materials before entering into a contract for these services or materials.
