Your brand on Wilmington roads — every day
Wilmington has no shortage of great local businesses. What most of them share is the same advertising problem — billboards are priced for national chains, social ads disappear in seconds, and word of mouth is unpredictable. Drive-Buy Ads puts your brand on local vehicles already driving your customers' neighborhoods, every day, without you doing anything after setup.
When your logo moves down Oleander Drive at 8am, past Mayfaire at noon, and through Wrightsville Beach at 3pm, your potential customers see it — verified local vehicles, transparent package pricing, install verification, and no long-term contracts.

See estimateWhat does it cost?
Packages magnet packages from ~$125/vehicle/mo (materials + placement); vinyl packages from ~$303/vehicle/mo.
Transparent, package-based pricing. Campaign costs are quoted per vehicle and campaign month for the package you select — door magnets, vinyl packages, rear branding, and add-ons. Month 1 includes production; loyalty discounts deepen on months 2–6 while your campaign stays active. See an estimate in the package estimate tool and the campaign builder before you submit. Package price is what advertisers pay — not driver payout.
When you want more coverage, you can expand into more zones, rear glass, hood, or bumper.
Final totals depend on package mix, number of vehicles, and campaign duration.
Pay campaign deposits via our secure hosted checkout (Valor). Driver payouts via Stripe Connect after approval.

Impression figures are modeled estimates and industry benchmarks, not guarantees. When location check-ins are enabled for a campaign, we may refine estimates using those records and DOT traffic counts. Actual results vary by route, density, and time of day. Industry modeled benchmarks (e.g. urban vehicle-ad exposure ranges) are available on request — they are not Wilmington live GPS measurements.
