How it works · For billboard owners

Fill your billboards, without the chasing.

List your outdoor media free, keep one calendar per billboard, and take bookings, artwork and payments in one place. Advertisers never see who you are: everything goes through advert.bid.

Step by step

Put all your outdoor media in front of advertisers, and keep control of every booking.

  1. An owner pointing at a laptop that sends listings out to three billboards

    List each billboard

    Add the media type, location, size and monthly price, with photos. It shows up in the locator straight away for every billboard user.

  2. A billboard above its calendar for May, with booked days in orange and free days in white, feeding a booking request into the owner’s dashboard with Accept and Reject buttons

    Keep one calendar per billboard

    Show advertisers when each space is free. Bookings land in your dashboard, where you accept or reject them.

  3. A crowd of advertisers, some raising a hand to bid, adding bookings at €550 and €1,000 a month

    Fill the quiet months

    Mark a billboard as negotiable with the lowest and highest price you’d take. Advertisers make offers, and you accept, reject or make one last counter offer.

Then

  1. Hand over and get paid

    Approve the advertiser’s artwork, put it up and add a proof photo. That completes the handover, and releases a card payment to your bank.

  2. Know what each billboard earns

    Views, enquiries and bookings for every billboard, with its income set against what it cost to put up.

  3. Bring advertisers back

    Advertisers are reminded to renew before their campaign ends, and with Owner Pro you can send a billboard to everyone who’s been in touch.

Everything to run your billboards

Getting paid

  • Card payments on advert.bid are coming soon, held until your proof photo is in and then paid to your bank through Stripe.
  • Until then, the advertiser pays you as agreed in your conversation, and you tick it off on the booking.
  • If an advertiser cancels late, you keep half (7 to 13 days before the start) or all of it (under 7 days).
  • Advertisers never see your company’s name or contact details: everything goes through advert.bid.
What it costs

Questions

What does Owner Pro add?

1.5% commission instead of 3%, statistics for the past 12 months with conversion rates, promoting a billboard to past contacts, and one free week of featuring every month.

What does “negotiable” mean?

The owner is open to offers within a range they set. You make an offer; the owner accepts, rejects or replies with a counter offer.

What if I have to cancel?

You can, until the billboard is up. The advertiser gets a full refund and your company gets a cancellation strike, so cancel only when you must.
