GigRadar makes sure that freelancers don’t apply to the same job posting more than once with the same profile. However, if you have different scanners set up for different freelancer profiles, our system allows cross-bidding by default. This means if two scanners for different freelancers find the same job, both profiles will submit applications.

For example, if you have scanners for "PropTech Daniel" and "PropTech Dmytro" with similar settings, both will apply for matching job posts. This is not considered duplicate bidding since it uses different freelancer profiles.

To prevent this from happening, you can make your scanners more different from each other. Try adding different exclusions, setting various rates, or using unique keywords for each profile. This way, each freelancer profile can apply to a unique set of jobs, increasing your chances of success without overlap.
