For this program, we're inviting researchers to test our freelancer platform and mobile iOS/Android/Desktop apps. Our goal with this program is to ensure that our customers are using a secure platform that's free of security vulnerabilities.
Please note: Upwork regularly releases new code, updates will be posted in the announcement section highlighting new code. This is a great opportunity for Upwork and the researcher community to work together to find vulnerabilities! Watch for new releases on Upwork's Blog.

- There is a 7-day sliding window where you can build momentum on your rewards for the Upwork program, going forward, submissions made within the 7-day sliding window will be sorted by the severity assigned and the momentum bonus will be applied from highest to lowest severity, for example if you submit 3 bugs in this sequence [P3, P2, P1] within a 7 day sliding window, the submissions will be sorted by severity [P1, P2, P3] and the first (Bug with P1 Severity) pays 100%, the second (Bug with P2 Severity) pays 110%, the third (Bug with P3 Severity) pays 120%, etc. This scales to a maximum payout amount of 200% (double reward) the original value.
