    • The rates will depend on your location and the visibility of the ads, but you can expect about $300 to $600 per month.[6]

You need to provide some personal details, and information about your car and your driving habits. After you have completed the form, you should will be contacted by the company who will tell you whether or not they are interested in advertising on your car.

  1. 1

    Get selected. When you have signed up, it is a matter of waiting until you are selected or made an offer to apply an advertising wrap or decal to your car. Signing up to more than one company may shorten the amount of time you have to wait before you get an offer.

  2. 2

    Sign a contract or advertising agreement. Once you are selected, you will be presented with a formal contract. The document should provide the details of the arrangement, including the distance you will drive daily or monthly, and where you will park the car. Make sure you know what kind of ad you will be obligated to put on your car before you sign

    • Car ads can be anything from a window sticker to a full-car wrap. The rates you earn will vary, but you should ask to see some pictures before you agree.
    • If you think you will not be comfortable having your entire car covered in a wrap, speak up before it is installed.
  3. 3

    Take your car in to be wrapped. In most instances the company will install the wrap on your car themselves. You will take your car to a designated space, where the advert will be stuck onto your car. How long this takes will depend on how large the advert is.

    • If you opt for a small ad, such as an ad that only goes over the back window, you may be required to install this yourself.
    • If this is the case you will be given full instructions on how to do it.[8]
  4. 4

    Drive as normal. Now the wrap has been applied, your job is just to drive as normal and as per the agreement you have made with the company. You will likely have a GPS installed to monitor your driving to ensure that you are driving the required amount and in the required areas. As long as you were honest in your application, this shouldn't be a problem.

    • Fulfill your obligations and after a month, or however long your contract is for, return the car and have the advert removed.
    • If you have an accident, or the advert gets damaged in any way, contact the company immediately so they can replace it if necessary.[9]

  • Consider swapping advertising space for services from a particular company or use it as a negotiating tool if the company isn't willing to pay your asking ad rate. Some may be able to pay your car insurance premium while others will pay for your gas or motor vehicle taxes.

  • Check with your vehicle insurance provider. They may charge you more if you decide to enroll in a car advertising program.

  • Make sure advertisements are professionally installed. Full-car wrap advertisements are only recommended for those vehicles with no paint or panel damage. If you've had your vehicle repainted or if body paint filler has been used, the installer cannot guarantee that removing the ad will not cause further damage.
