Auto-Bidding submits proposals through a Business Manager that joins your Upwork agency. Invite that manager, send the request, and wait for approval. Only the team owner and admins can do this.

Your business manager

Vollna assigns a Business Manager to your account once your subscription is active. The manager submits proposals on behalf of your agency, using the freelancer profile from your proposal template. Clients see that freelancer profile, never the manager.
