A bid tells your provider, “Send me this type of lead from this place, and here’s what I’ll pay.” Each bid covers one lead type in one location (a county, a state, or a whole country) and competes with other buyers’ bids for leads that come in there. The Bids page is where you create, adjust, pause, and remove them.

The bids table

Tabs across the top sort your bids by whether they can win leads, with a count on each.
  • All shows every bid you have.
  • Active shows bids that can win leads right now.
  • Limited shows bids that are still competing but are being held back by your wallet balance or a budget.
  • Inactive shows bids that can’t win leads right now, because they’re paused, out of funds, or have hit a cap or budget (on the bid or on your whole account).
Use Search bids and the Filters menu (Lead type and Scope) to narrow the list. Use the Columns menu to show the extra County, State, and Country columns (handy for sorting), plus Caps and Budgets when your provider lets you set limits on individual bids. Each row has three actions at the end.
  • Pause bid / Resume bid stops or restarts that one bid without deleting it.
  • Edit bid opens the bid editor for that location.
  • Delete bid removes the bid after you confirm. You stop receiving leads for it immediately, and it can’t be undone.
If your provider has locked bidding, the pause and resume buttons are disabled. Contact your provider if you need a bid paused.

Bid position

Being on top only wins you the lead if your bid can actually take it, so keep an eye on your status too.

Bid statuses

The wallet chip in the sidebar gives you the same funding signal at a glance.

Creating a new bid

Click New bid at the top of the page.

1. Find a location

Start typing in the Location box (a county, state, or country). Matching places appear as you type. Use the Scopes checkboxes to show only counties, states, or countries.

2. Set your price

Once you’ve picked a location, you’ll see every lead type you can bid on there.

Each lead type shows its Min (the lowest allowed bid) and Top (the current highest bid, with the number of bids tied there). Here’s how to bid.
  1. Click Bid $X to start at the minimum.
  2. Use the left and right arrows to step your bid down or up, or click the amount to pick from a list of every allowed amount.
  3. Watch the badge next to the amount. TOP, TIED, or UNDER tells you where that amount would land you before you commit.
Some lead types have a single fixed price, so there’s only one amount to choose. Next to the amount you’ll find two more controls.
  • Limits (when your provider allows them) let you set a daily, weekly, or monthly lead cap or budget for just this bid. The bid pauses itself once a limit is reached. Leave a field blank for no limit.
  • Clear bid (the ×) removes that lead type from what you’re about to save.
You can bid on as many lead types at the location as you like. If you already have a bid for a lead type there, you’ll see “You already have a bid for this lead type and location” instead; use Edit bid to change it.

3. Save

Click Save bid (or Save N bids if you set several). You’re back on the bids table, and your new bids start competing right away.

Editing a bid

Click Edit bid on any row. The Edit bids dialog opens on that bid’s location (which can’t be changed while editing) with all its lead types listed. Adjust prices or limits, add bids for other lead types, then click Save changes. To stop bidding on a lead type entirely, use Delete bid on its row in the table.

Smart pricing

You don’t always pay your full bid. When you win a lead, Juiced charges you the lowest allowed amount that still beats the next-highest bidder, so you pay just enough to win. For example, say the minimum bid is $10 and bids go up in $10 steps. You bid $100 and the next-highest bidder is at $10. When you win, you pay $20, not $100. So bid what a lead is genuinely worth to you. Competition sets the price; your bid just sets the ceiling.
