Profile photo guidelines

What makes a good profile photo, and how to add, change or remove yours.

A clear, friendly headshot builds trust with clients. Every member needs a profile photo before signing a contract, applying to a role, starting an interview or adding a payout account.

Do

  • Your face fills about 60% of the frame (head and shoulders).
  • Look at the camera.
  • Face evenly lit: face a window, no strong light behind you.
  • Plain or tidy background.
  • A recent photo of you only.
  • Neutral or smiling expression.
  • Wear what you'd wear to work.

Don't

  • Sunglasses, hats or face coverings (religious head coverings are fine as long as your face is fully visible).
  • Group photos or cropped-out people.
  • Logos, text, filters, cartoons or avatars.
  • Blurry, dark or far-away shots.
  • Photos of someone else or stock images.

How to add or change it

  1. Open Dashboard → Profile.
  2. Press Take a photo (front camera) or Choose from gallery.
  3. Drag and zoom so your face sits inside the oval, then press Save photo.

Photos must be at least 400×400 pixels. You can change or remove your photo at any time; without a photo, signing, applying and interviews wait until you add one.
