Cross-account portfolio bidding + dedicated Bid strategy report
Microsoft launched a dedicated Bid strategy report that shows strategy status and performance metrics (average target ROAS, ROAS, revenue, conversions), with a conversion delay window visualisation, and full bid strategy settings (Target ROAS, Maximum CPC). Paired with this: Cross-account portfolio bidding lets agencies group campaigns across multiple accounts under a single strategy.


What changed
This closes a long-standing gap for agencies managing multi-account holding-company structures on Microsoft.
Why it matters for advertisers
For you, this means agencies managing scaled Microsoft Ads portfolios can collapse separate per-account bid strategy management into a single cross-account view. Particularly relevant for holding-company structures where portfolio strategy alignment has been an operational drag.
