Pausing new leads
Too busy or taking a break? Pause new leads from Lead preferences. Your profile stays visible, and you can resume at any time.
On this page
How to pause
- Open Lead preferences in your dashboard.
- Untick “I'm accepting new leads”.
- Save. A banner in your dashboard reminds you that new leads are paused.
While you're paused
- You aren't matched with new requests.
- Your public profile stays visible.
- Leads you already connected with, and your messages, stay available.
- Nothing is charged, because you only pay when you connect with a lead.
- Your reviews and verification aren't affected.
Resuming
Tick the box again, or choose “Resume leads” on the dashboard banner. New requests that match your services and areas can reach you again.
Getting fewer leads instead
If you want fewer leads rather than none, you don't have to pause. Narrow your service areas, remove services you can't take on right now, or change the job timing you accept in Lead preferences.
