Mullvad VPN

I live and work in Europe but I frequently travel and notice that there are quite a few sites that will block anything coming from a known VPN. One of the biggest issues is our company financial software which is a subscription service not done in-house. If I access it with Mullvad turned on from the train or a coffee shop it blocks it... but if I setup a wireguard tunnel and use that instead... same Mullvad servers just done through the Wireguard app, everything works fine.

Can someone explain how the VPNs communicate client vs wireguard that might be allowing wireguard to bypass filters looking for VPNs?
